We’ve been working with Suzanne since our baby was a week old. We were struggling with weight gain, and breastfeeding was so incredibly challenging as a first time mom. Suzanne was amazing at determining what issues we were having AND helping us get to the root causes of our issues. I appreciate that she always explains things simply when doing an exam on our baby. Dr. Chelsea is also incredible! Our baby loves getting adjusted and is always so happy after. We’ve learned a lot from Dr. Chelsea and now our baby loves to do his stretches throughout the day.
Response from the owner:Hi Meena, Thank you for your incredible review! We are delighted to hear about your positive experience with Suzanne and Dr. Chelsea. Suzanne is passionate about helping mothers and their babies thrive, and it’s wonderful to know that her guidance and expertise have made such a difference for your family. Dr. Chelsea is equally thrilled to hear that your baby enjoys his adjustments and stretches. We are committed to creating a nurturing and supportive environment for both moms and their little ones. Your kind words motivate us to continue providing the best care possible. All the best, Suzanne, Dr. Chelsea, and the Bayou City Breastfeeding Team
Karen was super helpful in giving me tips on how to become better at breastfeeding and bottle feeding my newborn. Our appointment was very thorough, I didn’t feel rushed and I had more than enough opportunity to ask all the questions I needed in order to feel comfortable conquering breastfeeding as a first time mom! I would highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
I’m a first time Mother and Susan’s helped with all my breastfeeding anxiety’s. She was very supportive and educated me on all my Lil One’s needs. I’m so glad I chose Bayou City Breastfeeding Consultants!!!
Coming here really saved my breastfeeding journey. I could not have done it without Jen and all her knowledge and support. I learned something every time I went, and she was always responsive and encouraging when I sent messages. Thanks to her, baby and I made it to a year of breastfeeding.
Response from the owner:Hi Meglyn, 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. Just remember you did ALL the hard work to ensure that your baby thrived!!! You are the superhero and should be proud of yourself!!!! 😊 Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊 Thank you!

Nicole was an amazing help to me as a first time mom! I was able to get a house call scheduled super quick, highly recommend BCB!
So extremely happy with the care, bedside manners, and patience with Karen Swan! I was hesitant when I first went because breastfeeding is an entire journey on its own. But after my 1st visit, I was so extremely happy and relieved I had someone who listened and helped me with this journey! I went in feeling 100% defeated (and exhausted) and walked out feeling confident and empowered. Only thing I would have done differently was not waited so long to make and appointment! LOVE THIS PLACE!!! LOVE Karen!
The facility is clean and very comforting.
Tiphany was incredible and informative 👏🏾
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review!
Very respectful, professional, compassionate and knowledgeable. My baby came early and they were flexible to schedule me as soon as possible. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Hi Amanda! Thank you for your review!!! Babies definitely have their own timetables, and it is our goal to be as flexible as possible to meet our clients schedules. We are so happy that Bayou City Breastfeeding was able to provide you the hope and resources you needed to start you on your breastfeeding journey. Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are still here for you!!! 😊 Thank you, Bayou City Breastfeeding
My experience with Kristen here at BCB has been amazing! I felt alone in this process at the beginning but Kristen has made my journey much better; an expert and friend. My experience has eliminated any stress I had about breastfeeding/pumping and my journey back to work after my short leave. The education level I have gained from my appointments has made me a successful and happy breastfeeding mom. I cannot say enough good things about BCB! I would highly recommended them for your prenatal and postnatal needs.
Response from the owner:Hi Shelby, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and for your encouragement to other working mothers. We are thrilled to hear how much Kristen and Bayou City Breastfeeding were able to help you and your family. Being a working mom with a baby that is still breastfeeding can be challenging. We are so happy that Kristen was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the tools and guidance necessary to stay on your breastfeeding journey after returning to work. Please let us know if there is any additional help that we can provide. We are still here for you!!! 😊 Thank you! Bayou City Breastfeeding
