We took the childbirth prep class last week and were so glad we did! As first time parents, we have definitely been overwhelmed with all the information floating around out there. This class gave us a good high level overview of what to expect leading up to labor, during labor and those first few weeks after birth. Jen was so great at breaking things down for us and answering any specific questions we had! Would highly recommend!

So grateful for Bayou city BF and especially Tiphany! My BF experience was incredibly positive, thanks in large part to the support and guidance she provided! She’s incredibly knowledgeable and encouraged me every step of the way, which has led to me BF for almost a year so far. Will take all my babies to her!
Response from the owner:Jen,

So thankful for Suzanne! I wish every mom would have access to someone like her. She has help make a huge difference in my breastfeeding journey and I don’t fear any obstacles or changes that may arise as my little one grows because I know I have Suzanne to guide me. Suzanne is passionate about what she does and she not only cares about your breastfeeding success but she cares about you and your well-being as a postpartum mom.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind review! So happy to be a part of your support team and you are a ROCKSTAR!
This is one of the easiest 5 stars I’ve given! Morgan has been a godsend. She’s worked with us through struggles with bottle feeding and a tongue tie. She’s phenomenal, and I’d recommend her to anyone needing feeding help for their little one.
Response from the owner:Hi Amanda,

Tiphany was incredible and informative 👏🏾
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review!
Tiphany was such a God send ! We went from barely being able to breastfeed (3 weeks old) to exclusively nursing with great milk transfer by 12 weeks! She sat with me through all my frustrations and was so calm, caring, and helpful ! I’m so thankful for her!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear how Tiphany’s calm and caring approach helped transform your breastfeeding journey—from those early challenges to exclusively nursing with great milk transfer by 12 weeks.
Your story is such an inspiration and a reminder of the incredible progress that’s possible with the right support. We’re so grateful you trusted us during those tough moments, and we couldn’t be happier for you and your little one! 💕

Claire is amazing and has really helped me and my baby come along way with under supply and lip/tongue tie.
Response from the owner:Hi Desiree!

Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 We are sure that it will help other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant. 😊 There are certainly others who are facing the similar issues with lip/tongue tie and undersupply.

We are so happy that Claire was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement, support and help needed to continue your breastfeeding journey. Just remember you did ALL the hard work to ensure that your baby thrived!!! You are the superhero and should be proud of yourself!!!! 😊

Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you!!! 😊

Thank you!

My 4 month old and I are extremely grateful for all the information and training we received from a home visit with Tiphany. Thanks to her, we are now on the right path to addressing some serious lip, tongue and buccal ties! In turn my babe will drastically reduce her risks of oral malformations as she develops during her childhood years. And of course improve her ability to take a bottle, which was the original reason for our visit! Thank you Tiphany!!
