I absolutely love Brandy! We have seen her for 3 of our kids and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Her expertise is unmatched and she genuinely wants to help 🩷🩷🩷

It means the world to us that you and your family continue to choose Bayou City Breastfeeding. We're honored to be part of your journey and grateful for the trust you've placed in us time and again.

Katelyn is so sweet! This was my second time working with her. She identified our issues quickly and got us on the right track with some easy home excercises. Ultimately we made the choice to revise a tongue tie but we couldn't have done it without her support.
Response from the owner:Hi Faith Ann, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Being a new mother can be overwhelming. We are so glad that Katelyn was able to ease your fears and concerns in a kind, caring manner. Please reach out if there is any additional help Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are still here for you!!! 😊 Thank you! Bayou City Breastfeeding
Jennifer Robert at Bayou City Breastfeeding has been amazing! I truly do not believe I would have had such a successful/enjoyable breastfeeding experience without her. I’ve seen her since week 1 of my son being born and now I’m 3 months in and doing great/ loving exclusively breastfeeding. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Hi Lauren, Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 We are so happy that Jennifer was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement, support and help needed to continue your breastfeeding journey. Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊 Thank you! Bayou City Breastfeeding
We had a wonderful experience with all the ladies! Ms. Suzanne helped tremendously with all the questions and concerns I had once my baby had his tongue/cheek/lip ties released
Response from the owner:Hi Edith! Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience at our Kingwood location. It's heartwarming to know that Suzanne and our team were able to provide the support and answers you needed during such an important time. Your kind words mean a lot to us and inspire us to continue offering the best care possible. All the best, The Bayou City Breastfeeding Team
Claire was very knowledgeable and helpful. I couldn’t have asked for a better lactation consultant!

Mary was a great help with my breastfeeding journey. She is amazing with children and very knowledgeable.

My journey was a bumpy one because I didn't have...
I cannot recommend this practice enough. I knew about lactation consultants before I had my baby, but didn't book them until after I was struggling in the first few days. My IBCLC took time out of her weekend to meet me on a Saturday and it changed everything. I was a much happier new mom thanks to the coaching, support, and cheerleading I received from Brandi. Thank you Bayou City Breastfeeding!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy to be a part of your breastfeeding story!
All the ladies here are super nice and helpful. They get you in as soon as possible and if they can’t help you, they find someone who can. They are also super responsive to messages and concerns.

Wow, I can’t thank Bayou city enough for everything they have done for us. it was an amazing feeling finally being able to breast feed my baby during the first visit and learning tips to help me breast feed her at home, not only that but I have learned so much about caring for our baby and helping her after a difficult labor. They gave us exercises to help with releasing tension and improving coordination. Idk where else they would do all this for us! I will definitely keep coming back! I worked with Brandy and Claire they were amazing!!
Response from the owner:Hi Jessica, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and kind words with us. Your words will surely help others experiencing a similar situation.

I watched courses, I read books about breastfeeding and naively thought “I got this”
After a week of crying and being frustrated with feeding we started our journey with Karen and she is wonderful. Lots of knowledge and slowly but surely we are progressing. I appreciate her guidance while we are figuring this out.
It’s lovely to know that I am not alone and there is help out there.
Thank you Karen!
