Sharee Lopez
I’m a first time mom and don’t really know what I’m doing as far as breastfeeding so I scheduled an appointment just to see what they had to say and after a 2 hour appointment I learned so much. More than I even knew to ask. They cover a lot more than just latching and scheduling and the very basics that I was expecting. I have so much more confidence in my breastfeeding journey and just motherhood as a whole now that I have them by my side
Response from the owner:Hi Sharee, Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 Being a first-time mom is daunting and scary on a good day! We are delighted to hear that your consultation exceeded your expectations and that the IBCLCs and staff at Bayou City Breastfeeding gave you the confidence you needed to start and continue your breastfeeding journey. We are sure that you have just helped other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant. 😊 Just remember, you’ve got this!!!! 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

This place is a dream!! My lactation consultant is Erica!! she’s simply a doll very knowledgeable and patient with me. On the first visit we established goals and how to meet them let alone making sure baby has a great latch!! Between visits I’m able to reach out to Erica for more support via app and that has also became sooooo helpful!! I highly recommend this place let alone I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ERICA if anyone need a lactation consultant.

My son and I were having latch issues as well as needing overall check ins with his weight. I was referred to Dana Gillman and my goodness I couldn’t recommend her enough! She is absolutely amazing and makes you feel 100% comfortable. She has a wide range of knowledge and you can tell she really cares about her patients, she is super responsive when I have any questions and believe me I have a ton! Extremely happy with my care by Dana, BOOK WITH HER!

We’ve been working with Suzanne since our baby was a week old. We were struggling with weight gain, and breastfeeding was so incredibly challenging as a first time mom. Suzanne was amazing at determining what issues we were having AND helping us get to the root causes of our issues. I appreciate that she always explains things simply when doing an exam on our baby. Dr. Chelsea is also incredible! Our baby loves getting adjusted and is always so happy after. We’ve learned a lot from Dr. Chelsea and now our baby loves to do his stretches throughout the day.
Response from the owner:Hi Meena, Thank you for your incredible review! We are delighted to hear about your positive experience with Suzanne and Dr. Chelsea. Suzanne is passionate about helping mothers and their babies thrive, and it’s wonderful to know that her guidance and expertise have made such a difference for your family. Dr. Chelsea is equally thrilled to hear that your baby enjoys his adjustments and stretches. We are committed to creating a nurturing and supportive environment for both moms and their little ones. Your kind words motivate us to continue providing the best care possible. All the best, Suzanne, Dr. Chelsea, and the Bayou City Breastfeeding Team

No question or concern are too big are small. The plan created fits the concerns and needs of the family. I was from the first time helped to the point feeding didn’t hurt. It has been explained very well and easy to follow.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
Lauren Wendes
Jen is amazing! She is so helpful and thorough. She has taught me so much about nursing and increased my confidence each time I see her. I don’t know how I fed 2 babies before without her!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review!

Suzanne was awesome, she was very patient and knowledgeable. I left the appointment feeling like I can definitely be successful at nursing premature twins.

Emily Strohm
I had such a wonderful experience at BCB! My son struggled to breastfeed after birth, but Tiphany was a lifesaver! She got us off to a great start and even helped us incorporate bottles to decrease the chance he would reject a bottle when I had to return to work.

Now my son is 6 months old, thriving and can switch between bottles and breastfeeding.
Response from the owner:Hi Emily, We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experience and kind words with us. We are thrilled to hear how much Tiphany and Bayou City Breastfeeding were able to help you during your breastfeeding journey. Being a new mother can be overwhelming, especially when you are going back to work. We are so glad that Tiphany was able to give you the tips and advice you needed to make that transition seamless. 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
