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. 🥹🫶🏼
Suzanne is amazing! She is knowledgeable, helpful and really cares. She was always available to answer questions or help in anyway she could. I don’t know what I would have done without her, she was a lifesaver!!

Working with Suzanne at Bayou City Breastfeeding saved our breastfeeding journey. Suzanne helped to diagnose a tongue and lip tie in our infant daughter and outlined each of the steps needed to correct the ties. We have seen an improvement in latch, transfer of milk, time spent feeding and so much more. In addition to the ties, Suzanne helped me as mom to get my milk supply back after it dropped drastically due to a poor latch. Suzanne outlined the steps needed for feedings and pumping, suggested supplements and vitamins to ensure I was giving my body the best chance to produce milk and most importantly was a huge emotional support throughout the process. I cannot say enough positive things about my experience and would recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding to any mom who is passionate about their breastfeeding journey.
Going to this appointment was very eye-opening! It is my first baby and she is eating and gaining weight fine, but I had noticed some signs over the past two weeks that were a little concerning to me and I wanted to learn more. The nurse was super informative, educated me on a ton of things I had never thought about in relation to breastfeeding position, latch, oral exercises, etc. I am definitely glad I went and will be following up soon. These appointments are for anyone and you can learn so much even if you think everything is going well so far!
Thank goodness for Ariel! She helped us become exclusively breastfed! The whole process is emotional but with Ariel’s support I was able to navigate getting my daughters tongue tie release. Thank you thank you!!
