Jessica DeAses has been my IBCLC and she’s absolutely AMAZING! Definitely a blessing to me and my family. She’s so sweet, understanding, never makes you feel rushed, and completely relatable. I don’t feel like she’s just a consultant but a friend because she’s so easy to talk to. The office is adorable as well, so cozy! I will definitely be meeting with her for any needs I may have!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
I cannot express how wonderful of an experience I had with Bayou City Breastfeeding and my lactation consultant, Mary. I met with Mary prior to having my daughter and met with her regularly over the first 4 months since she was born. We tackled together a tongue and lip tie prior to and post-surgery, along with latching and supply issues. Mary is kind and always made me feel extremely comfortable at our visits. She spent so much time with us asking all the necessary questions, showing and suggesting different techniques to use and seeing how much my daughter was being fed. We miss seeing her and thank her so much for all of the help she provided to us.
Response from the owner:Hi Bridget,

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Bayou City Breast Feeding! I dealt with pain latching for the first month of my daughters life and then finally came to see Brandy. My only regret is that I would have come sooner!! She helped me learn how to feed without pain but more than that gave me so much encouragement as a new mom! She is such a gift and has helped me tremendously! We still go see her for well visits and she has helped me navigate going back to work and other questions that I have. I can't recommend Brandy and Bayou City Breastfeeding enough!

Suzzane is also amazing and helping my appointments get coverage through my insurance Blue Cross Blue Shield. They did not want to pay the claims, but she has worked so hard to make sure they are paid.

Book an appointment! You will be so so grateful you did!!
Response from the owner:Hi Leah,

We were referred to Bayou City Breastfeeding by our baby's chiropractor for possible oral ties. They have walked with us through every step since it was...
I’ve told all of my new mama friends to visit Bayou City Breastfeeding. The consultants are amazing & helped me SO much as a new mom! I was able to meet my breastfeeding goal with their help.

Kathy was great from my prenatal lactation visit through the first couple months of birth with my baby. She was so informative and helped navigate through some breastfeeding issues I was having. I highly recommend BCBLC.

Even with the online classes I was struggling to breastfeed. I’m so glad I contacted Bayou City breastfeeding. Katelyn was fantastic she sat down with us and looked at all the obstacles we’ve been battling and we came up with a plan that hopefully works for us.

I met with Jessica for my first lactation consult. She was thorough, patient and gave us great information! Her follow up has been timely and compassionate. Her passion for helping moms achieve a successful breast feeding journey comes across in the care and attention she gives. I’ve been singing her praises to everyone I have talked with. I highly recommend her and Bayou City Breastfeeding - Magnolia!

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...
It took about a week to get an in person visit, but we were able to get a triage video call appointment within 12 hours of my first contact to address immediate concerns. Kathy at the Houston location was thorough, informative, and very helpful. She was respectful of the goals for our family, and made sure to check in and re-assess those goals at our follow up appointments. Would definitely recommend Kathy and Bayou City to anyone looking for support in feeding their baby!
