Mandy has been so great with helping us in our breastfeeding journey. We are so appreciative and look forward to a long and healthy breastfeeding run!
Suzanne was awesome, she was very patient and knowledgeable. I left the appointment feeling like I can definitely be successful at nursing premature twins.
I had an amazing appointment with Kathy Lenert. I’ve had 2 in home visits with Kathy and each time I felt encouraged, supported and more informed. As a first time breast feeding mom, I had a lot of anxiety around supply, latch and overall oral restrictions with my baby. Kathy heard all my concerns and addressed each one with patience, knowledge and encouragement. The first appt - she took time examining my baby; explaining what she saw and what she was doing and offered support/suggestions and exercises. She has great examples, models and explains everything so well - but is careful not to overwhelm. She showed me different ways to feed more comfortably and fit my right with my pump size. Also her bedside manner makes you feel a lot at ease in such a stressful time. I appreciate that each session is then quickly followed with summary notes and detailed information regarding anything discussed. 10000% recommend and couldn’t say enough positive things about her! She knows what she’s talking about!
Bayou City Breastfeeding is a must! I booked a session right after having my baby when I discovered we were having issues with latching/feeding. I knew my baby wasn’t getting enough to eat early on and freaked out. I worked with Jennifer and she is great, I highly recommend her! She listens to your feeding goals and provided me with so many helpful tips! Tip for new moms, book one consultation before you deliver your baby so you can have a good feeding plan ahead of time then do follow-up appointments after baby is here.
I am beyond grateful to have found this place. To have found Priscilla Jackson was a huge blessing in my nursing journey. If it were not for everything I learned from her, I honestly might have not been able to continue to breastfeed my baby. She taught me so much on how to breastfeed, how to help my baby with her latch, and even how to make sure that I did not run out of milk. When I came to her, I am pretty certain I was about to dry out, but because of everything she taught us she saved both my baby and I from losing such a wonderful connection. Today I can proudly say my baby is exclusively breastfed, after a lot of hard work, and all the tools that were provided to us as parents through Bayou City. I already recommended the place to all pregnant women I know. 🤭 A HUGE THANK YOU TO PRISCILLA. 🥹🫶🏼
