I had an amazing experience and relationship with my LC, Dana Gillman. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She helped my son and I with latch/gas issues as well as general maintenance and care for myself to prevent clogs. She was very responsive when I had questions that came up throughout the week in between our appointments. She also was very supportive and encouraging during postpartum and I cannot thank her enough for her kindness.

I cannot speak enough praise for Bayou City, specifically Claire J and Brandy (who we met a few times!). Claire is my go to gal for all things breastfeeding for mom and baby. I’m a nicu nurse and have completed coursework myself to become a CLC, and I know MANY LCs, but none compare to Claire. She is so dedicated and is a vast wealth of knowledge. We live in Dallas and were connected to Claire through a mutual friend after a complicated tie release when my daughter was almost completely aversive to the breast and would not take a bottle. I was very close to requesting a feeding tube from my pediatrician. Claire met with me virtually multiple times, even on the day after Christmas, and she was able to help my daughter be receptive to feeding consistently in a matter of 48 hours. In the months to come, we visited Claire at bayou city for week long intensives, where she worked us in to her schedule around our other appointments in Katy and even brought in other LCs like Brandy to consult on post release healing. She is skilled at navigating ties (pre and post release) and breastfeeding, supply issues, maternal health complications, and the emotional dynamics of everything. She has a wealth of resources at her fingertips and knows how to use them. Kind and gentle, realistic, and affirming of maternal dyad goals, Claire is the person y’all need for success in your breastfeeding journey.

Claire is wonderful! She is easy to talk to and works well with my chiropractor, Dr.Jade. She has helped me and my son immensely on our breastfeeding journey.

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...

Katelyn was truly amazing, sweet, informative, and gentle in every way. She gave me hope in breast-feeding; honestly, I was going to actually give up. This was my last option, and she gave me so many tips and gave me things to work on with my daughter; she truly made me feel likeI could continue my breast-feeding journey 10 out of 10 would recommend

My LC is Amanda and we’ve been seeing her for roughly a month now. She is such a valuable LC and is patient, kind, and proactive. She goes the lengths to make sure each of her patients are experiencing better outcomes and that they are comfortable with solutions provided for specific pain points. I’m grateful to have a LC that goes beyond the 9-5 mindset and truly cares about her clients.

Tiphany at Bayou City Lactation was excellent to work with. If you are wanting to BF I would highly recommend BCL. She hands down saved my BF journey. She identified and addressed my baby’s tongue ties before our pediatrician did. She showed me how to use my pump. She showed me how to make BF more efficient. And she was always available through text with any questions I had. 10/10 recommend. I will use her for any baby I am blessed with in the future! Thank you BCL and Tiphany for all you do to support mothers!

Kathy was great from my prenatal lactation visit through the first couple months of birth with my baby. She was so informative and helped navigate through some breastfeeding issues I was having. I highly recommend BCBLC.

Amazing support in such a difficult time that’s trying to breastfeed your baby. My consultant was Karen and I have no words to describe the help, patience and knowledge shared.

Suzanne is amazing. I always thought breastfeeding would be so natural and easy but that just wasn't the case for me. I struggled with my first two kiddos...
