I was able to get a virtual appointment within 48hrs of my request to get advice on my recent bout with mastitis. My consultant, Suzanne, quickly identified the likely culprit and gave some advice moving forward that was so helpful!! I would highly recommend!

I cannot express how much I’ve enjoyed my experience here! I’ve worked with both Karen and Mandy, and they have both helped me as a new mom. I’m not sure I wouldn’t gotten through the first few months without them! 10/10 recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Avery! We’re thrilled to hear that your experience with Bayou City Breastfeeding has been so positive. Karen and Mandy will be delighted to know how much their support meant to you during those early months. Helping new moms feel confident and supported is exactly why we do what we do!

Without the guidance of Suzanne and her expertise, I dont think breastfeeding would have lasted long for us at all. She always knows exactly what is needed to get us headed on the best track for success. All the other lactation consultants we have seen here have been pretty great also as well as the chiropractor Dr. Chelsea! I highly recommend taking advantage of their services if you are expecting or have a little one!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words, Christine! We're thrilled to hear that Suzanne and our team could provide the support you needed on your breastfeeding journey. It's always our goal to set families up for success. Your recommendation means the world to us! 💛 We are so happy to have you in the Bayou City Breastfeeding family!

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. We are so happy that Brandy and Claire were able to provide you the encouragement and help necessary to start you on your breastfeeding journey. Please reach out if you need anything else. We are 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

I cannot recommend Suzanne enough for her exceptional expertise and compassionate care. Suzanne has been instrumental in the care of my son who has oral ties and struggling to feed and gain weight. Her dedication to her profession and genuine concern for her patients is seen and felt during sessions. Suzanne impressed me with her comprehensive understanding of breastfeeding challenges related to oral ties. What I appreciate most about Suzanne and her team is their personalized care. They didn't just address the immediate issue; they took the time to understand our unique goals, concerns, and mental health through this journey. Their supportive attitude created a warm and welcoming environment, making me feel genuinely cared for during a challenging time.
Response from the owner:Hi Sarah! Thank you so much for our kind words!!! Bayou City Breastfeeding’s core mission is to care for the entire health of our clients: physical, emotional and mental. We are so glad that Suzanne was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to guide you through the challenges of breastfeeding a baby with oral ties, who struggled to feed and gain weight. It was truly an honor and a privilege to be able to assist you in this journey. Being a new parent is scary on a good day, so ensuring our families are in a safe and supportive environment is critical to us, and we are so glad to hear that you felt that way. Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are so happy to have you in the Bayou City Breastfeeding family!!! 😊 Thank you! The Bayou City Breastfeeding Team
