Ramos Family
Kyna is amazing and such a great support person to add to your team in your postpartum season when trying to ensure a strong nursing experience with your new little one. She's a great listener, very well educated, and so supportive to any new or even experienced mom. I wish I had her support for my first two children but so grateful to have her with our recent little one. She's helped me nurse longer than I did with my other two. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Hi Ramos Family, Thank you so much for your kind words and glowing recommendation. We’re thrilled to hear that Kyna was the perfect IBCLC for your family. It means the world to us that she was able to provide both the evidence-based expertise and the compassionate support you needed during your breastfeeding journey with your newest little one. We’re truly honored that you chose Bayou City Breastfeeding to be part of this special season in your life. Supporting families like yours is why we do what we do. All the best, The Bayou City Breastfeeding Team

Kyna gave us a visit on the 4th of July! I’m having so many challenges with breast feeding, but she and her team encouraged me with their rich knowledge and experience on top of warm caring touch. Highly recommend!

Melissa was a godsend. My baby was born a full month early last September. I started seeing Melissa at the end of October after not having any success getting my baby to latch. She worked with not only helping my baby with latching but also with effectively pumping. When I was thinking about giving up on nursing, she let me know she supported me either way. I ultimately kept trying and with her help, I have been successfully nursing since the end of January. I will definitely be going back when I have my next baby.
Response from the owner:Hi Samantha, Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're thrilled to hear that Melissa was able to provide the support and guidance you needed during such a crucial time. Your journey, from the challenges of a premature birth to successfully nursing by the end of January, is truly inspiring. Melissa's dedication to helping you with both latching and pumping, and her unwavering support, clearly made a significant difference. We're so glad to know that you felt supported in your decision-making process and that Melissa's expertise helped you continue nursing. Your kind words will surely encourage other new mothers who might be facing similar challenges. We look forward to welcoming you back when you have your next baby. Thank you for choosing Alamo City Breastfeeding!

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...

Bayou City Breastfeeding is a must! I booked a session right after having my baby when I discovered we were having issues with latching/feeding. I knew my baby wasn’t getting enough to eat early on and freaked out. I worked with Jennifer and she is great, I highly recommend her! She listens to your feeding goals and provided me with so many helpful tips! Tip for new moms, book one consultation before you deliver your baby so you can have a good feeding plan ahead of time then do follow-up appointments after baby is here.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review!
