Jessica has been a huge blessing in my life since having my first baby and now to have the peace of mind and confidence derived from her support is just truly such a gift! I’m so thankful and looking forward to another successful breastfeeding experience with baby number 2 thanks to her! I couldn’t feel more prepared going into my delivery.
Response from the owner:Hi Regan, Thank you so much for your kind words!!! We think Jessica is a blessing too and are so pleased that she was the perfect IBCLC for you. Being a new parent can be overwhelming. We are so glad that Jessica was able to ease your fears and concerns in a kind, caring manner. We are also looking forward to helping with baby #2! 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
So thankful to Bayou City for helping us through our oral tie release journey! Katelyn and Dr. Jade are so knowledgeable and great emotional supporters.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
As an exclusive pumper, I had horrible experiences with other lactation consultants. I came here on a recommendation and I don’t regret it!! Our consultant was understanding, informative and a great listener. The communication is easy as well… they have texting and direct messaging.
Response from the owner:Hi Karla! We greatly appreciate your recommendation! 😊 It’s wonderful to hear how the services and care provided by Bayou City Breastfeeding surpass those of other lactation consulting groups. Please keep spreading the word!!! Also, 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
Words can not describe the love we felt from the staff at the kingwood location! Dr Chelsea , Ali, and susane made us feel like family and always advocated for our little Kaleb without question. We highly recommend this team ♥️
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so honored that you chose to have Bayou City Breastfeeding as part of your support team!
I have had an excellent experience with Bayou City Breastfeeding!! I am a first time mom who was hesitant about breastfeeding. Ariel has helped me gain confidence and I now love breastfeeding my son! She also helped us identify a tongue and lip tie and recommended a plan of action that made our whole family comfortable and we are seeing major improvements. I cannot recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding enough!
Response from the owner:Hi Katelyn, Thank you for your review!!! We are sure that it will help other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant. 😊 We are so happy that Ariel was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement and tools necessary to overcome the obstacles you faced on 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
What an amazing experience. Learned so much, patient and caring staff
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team! 🤍 Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding wouldn’t have been possible without the help and continued care I received from Tiffany! She also found a tongue tie, that neither the hospital nor the pediatrician detected. Without her support I would not have been able to breast-feed my son
Response from the owner:Hi Megan, Thank you for your kind words! But you are the one that did all the hard work!!! It’s wonderful to hear how the services and care provided by Bayou City Breastfeeding helped you achieve your goal of breastfeeding. We are so glad that Tiffany was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to guide you through the challenges of breastfeeding a baby with tongue tie. It was truly an honor and a privilege to be able to assist you in this journey. If there is anything else we can do to help you, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are always here for you! Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding
We’ve been working with Megan to help our little guy (and me) have a better nursing experience. She has been nothing short of wonderful! Megan is very patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate. She has expertly answered all of our questions, supported us as issues arise, and been instrumental in guiding us through his tongue tie journey. We’re really grateful to have the opportunity to work with her and couldn’t recommend strongly enough. If you’re on the fence about working with a consultant—do it!
Response from the owner:Hi Meghan! Thank you for your review!!! We are sure that it will help other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant. 😊 We are so happy that Megan was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement and tools necessary to overcome the obstacles you faced on your tongue-tie and breastfeeding journeys.

Had a wonderful experience with Amanda today! I felt heard and understood and never any pressure to do something I wasn't comfortable with. The assessment was very thorough and the appointment ended with me feeling more in control. Definitely recommended!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review!
I have used Jessica from Bayou City Breastfeeding now for both of my children. She was instrumental in making sure that we were successful in breastfeeding, allowing me to get off to a good start with my second and to nurse for close to two years with my first. She is responsive and went above and beyond to be available for appointments and questions. I would recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding to anyone looking for lactation support!
Response from the owner:Hi Christina! We really appreciate you sharing your positive experience and kind words with us!!! We feel honored that your family has placed its trust in Jessica and Bayou City Breastfeeding, not once, but twice! Thank you for allowing us to be part of your support team. 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
