I found Bayou City Breastfeeding about three years ago. Suzanne helped me with my daughter to ensure my desires of breastfeeding my baby were met. She not only showed me techniques to help with her latch, she also recommended certain things I had no idea about that would help my BF journey. I’m so thankful for her help I was able to BF my daughter for 15 months before she (daughter) decided she was ready to be done. I am now back at BCBF with my new baby who has had latching issues and again Suzanne is there to help me with all her knowledge and amazingness! I definitely recommend Bayou City BF!

Went from my baby boy NOT being able to latch (exclusively pumping), to using a nipple shield, to direct breastfeeding and the whole process was under the guidance of Tessa. I cannot recommend bayou city breastfeeding enough! It’s been an amazing experience. All my visits were relaxing and impactful. All my questions were answered- Tessa and the other ibclc’s are too knowledgeable for their own good 🤣. Any mama looking for assistance in their breastfeeding journey should look no further!!
Response from the owner:Hi Atem! Thank you so much for sharing your positive experience and kind words with us!!! Moving from exclusive pumping to breastfeeding at the breast is quite a feat! Congratulations on your dedication and determination! We feel honored that you placed your trust in Tessa and Bayou City Breastfeeding during your challenging breastfeeding journey. 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
Suzanne has helped me so much during my breastfeeding journey. I had to exclusively pump the first few weeks after birth because my baby wouldn’t latch. Now we are 1 month pp exclusively breastfeeding, and I am so grateful!
Response from the owner:Hi Grace! Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 There are certainly others who are facing similar issues with latching and have to pump exclusively at the beginning of their breastfeeding journey that will benefit from your story. 😊 We are so happy that Bayou City Breastfeeding 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! Bayou City Breastfeeding
Karen is the best! I wish I would've had her when I had my first baby. She helped tremendously with my baby's latch and even helped me find the flange size so i could pump comfortably. Can't recommend her enough.
Response from the owner:Hi Elisa, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience and kind words with us. Making the commitment to breastfeed can be a challenge. Kudos for sticking with it! We are so glad that Karen was able to ease your fears and concerns in a kind, caring manner. 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
I love this place.
So greatful for Ms. Nicole, without her I wouldn’t have kept breastfeeding. She’s very knowledgeable, and listens to my concerns to try to get to the root of the problem. I’m thankful I have someone to guide me in this vulnerable stage of life. I also recommend Dr. Emily and the bodywork that’s been so helpful aswell!
Response from the owner:Hi Lluvia! Thank you for your glowing review!!! It is wonderful to hear that you and your little one benefited from both our Bodywork (chiropractic) and Lactation services! Also, thank you for sharing how both Dr. Emily and Nicole were able to support you 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
Donique was extremely helpful during my consultation visit. I learned so much about the lactation process and nursing in general that made me feel ready to take on the challenge once my baby is born. I cannot recommend Donique and Bayou Breastfeeding more.
Response from the owner:Raisa, Thank you so much for your kind words!!! We are thrilled to hear how much Donique and Bayou City Breastfeeding were able to help you. Being a new mom and starting the process of breastfeeding can be overwhelming. Getting instruction before delivery is a testament to your love and commitment to your baby’s health. We are so happy that Donique was the perfect IBCLC for you! Good luck with your breastfeeding journey!!!! You can do it!!!! 😊 Please let us know if there is any additional help or guidance that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!
Tiphany and the team at Bayou City Breastfeeding are amazing! Tiphany’s talent for educating her clients in an encouraging manner is unmatched! She helped us from the first weeks through a few months journey of releasing our daughter’s lip, tongue and cheek ties. She recommended us to several ENTS, as well as a chiropractor to help with bodywork through the process. Our baby can now eat and is overall healthy and happy. She is thriving thanks to Tiphany and the team! I highly encourage any new parents to reach out for a very convenient in-home consultation as soon as you have your bundle of joy earth side!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your glowing recommendation! But you are the one that did all the hard work!!! It’s wonderful to hear that you and your family benefitted from Bayou City Breastfeeding’s lactation and bodywork services. We are so glad that Tiphany was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to guide you through the challenges of breastfeeding a baby with tongue, lip and cheek ties. 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
