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!
We took the childbirth prep class last week and were so glad we did! As first time parents, we have definitely been overwhelmed with all the information floating around out there. This class gave us a good high level overview of what to expect leading up to labor, during labor and those first few weeks after birth. Jen was so great at breaking things down for us and answering any specific questions we had! Would highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Hi Kayla, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that our childbirth prep class provided you with the clarity and confidence you needed as first-time parents. It's great to know that Jen was able to break things down effectively and address all your questions. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're so glad we could be a part of your journey into parenthood. Wishing you all the best in the exciting weeks ahead! 🌟👶💖 The Bayou City Breastfeeding Team
I live in The Woodlands so I was disappointed that this was the closest "in network provider" that my insurance would pay 100% of the visit, and I didn't...
Katelyn Kleiber is great!! We had a home visit with her for a preventative consultation. She was great in providing feedback and making us feel comfortable. She was so gentle with my three-week-old and greatly improved my confidence with breastfeeding by offering corrections and education :) Would recommend Katelyn Kleiber again and again!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
Suzanne is the best! The first thing she checked was to see if my son had any restrictions in his mouth that the hospital missed. She found a tongue and lip tie! She showed me how to appropriately position to breast feed and helped gather resources for my son and I. I will be recommending them to everyone!
Response from the owner:Hi Laiya! Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation!!! We are so glad that Suzanne was able to guide you through the challenges of breastfeeding a baby with oral ties. It is truly an honor and a privilege to be able to assist you in this journey. 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
Mary was amazing! She educated me and gave me so much support.

I needed guidance on how to navigate breastfeeding my toddler while pregnant and Miranda and Megan did not disappoint! They both helped me form a plan for continuing to bf my toddler while also setting new routines to facilitate night weaning and encourage longer stretches of sleep for the both of us.
Response from the owner:Hi Baylie! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. Your kind words will surely encourage other moms who are facing a similar situation. We are thrilled that Miranda and Megan were able to provide you with the tools and resources that you needed to fix your sleeping patterns while juggling night-weaning, breastfeeding a toddler and preparing for a new little one. You are a Rock Star!!! 🌟 Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊 Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding
I’ve delivered my first baby 3 weeks earlier and she stayed in NICU for few days which makes it difficult to breastfeed her. Later I kept struggling to make her latch and when she did latch I’ve never been able to keep her latched. Also, I was having difficulties with positioning. I seek Bayou City Breastfeeding for help and the amazing LC Kyna got assigned to me. Kyna first taught me how to set and hold the baby for the breastfeeding, and she taught me some mouth and cheeks exercises to train the baby how to latch. In few seconds my baby was able to latch and she refused to let it go 😊 …. Kyna showed me how to use the breast bump correctly and how to choose the right size that will be comfortable and not painful. She also shared some useful resources that will help with the journey of breast feeding. I was very happy after our first session with Kyna. We met again for several follow up sessions and each time she taught me something new. My baby now is 3 months and she cried for the breastfeeding than the bottle feeding. Each time I breastfeed her I wish i can call Kyna to say thank you. Words are not enough Kyna ❤️
Response from the owner:Hi Haifa! 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 Kyna was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement and help needed to start 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
