I love my consultant Katelyn. She is super professional and gave me great suggestions.

I have had an excellent experience with Bayou City Breastfeeding!! I am a first time mom who was hesitant about breastfeeding. Ariel has helped me gain confidence and I now love breastfeeding my son! She also helped us identify a tongue and lip tie and recommended a plan of action that made our whole family comfortable and we are seeing major improvements. I cannot recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding enough!

My IBCLC helped me and my baby persevere with breastfeeding as we waited for his frenectomy. She’s worked with us through all the difficulties and encouraged me when I’ve wanted to give up. I would not have continued breastfeeding if it weren’t for the support and care my baby and I received from Bayou City Breastfeeding.

I am so grateful I found Bayou City Breastfeeding! My appointments with Suzanne were the most helpful appointments I've ever had. I have learned so much and...
Ali was my lactation specialist and from the first consult she gave me so much peace of mind and feed back in my BFing journey. And any questions I had even after she stayed in touch and helped me through.
I would recommend her to any mom who is considering breastfeeding and needing someone who is like your best friend to walk you through.
Thank you Ali and BCB!

I came here to try to induce lactation after we adopted our son. Mandy helped me get a supply going, and also answered my myriad questions about caring for our first baby. We also did bodywork here to address his tension and help with painful latching. Highly recommend coming here for any breastfeeding needs!
Response from the owner:Hello Helen! Thank you for your glowing recommendation! 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 Mandy was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to guide you through the process of inducing lactation to breastfeed your adopted baby. 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
Katelyn is so sweet! This was my second time working with her. She identified our issues quickly and got us on the right track with some easy home excercises. Ultimately we made the choice to revise a tongue tie but we couldn't have done it without her support.
Response from the owner:Hi Faith Ann, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Being a new mother can be overwhelming. We are so glad that Katelyn was able to ease your fears and concerns in a kind, caring manner. Please reach out if there is any additional help Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are still here for you!!! 😊 Thank you! Bayou City Breastfeeding
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!
Megan was awesome!!!! She was super sweet and answered all the doubts I had at this time! I highly recommend her!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
Karen was absolutely wonderful! Without all her help and support I would have quit nursing. My baby had tongue and lip tie, with her guidance we were able to correct that and now we nurse with ease! I can’t thank her enough!
