In- Home Consultation Services
Service Description
In-Home Consultation
-1.5 hour session
Our initial in-home lactation consultation comprises of a detailed health and birth history of you and your baby(ies) to determine your breastfeeding concerns.
​
During our session, I will educate and guide you through various breastfeeding positions, assist you in getting your baby to latch properly, know when your baby is getting milk and know when your baby is full. I will go through hunger cues, newborn care, sleep patterns, and the nutritional health benefits for your baby and yourself throughout your lactation journey.
​
We will also discuss how to maintain an adequate milk supply as well as the use of a breast pump. Together we will come up with a personalized plan that is clear, comfortable and effective.
​
My goal is to empower you with the knowledge, skills, and techniques to get you and your baby(ies) off to a wonderful start in your breastfeeding journey.
Follow-up Care
-1 hour
I provide 1 follow-up care session within the first 2 weeks after every in-home consultation via text,
e-mail, or phone call.
If you would like a 1 hour follow-up in-home visit a charge of $100 +$25 travel charge (if you live outside the Vaughan area) will be applied.
We will go over the changes you've experienced since our last visit, answer any questions or concerns you may have, growth spurt behaviours, as well as go over important milestones to look for during your baby's development. We will discuss gut health, temperament, sleep patterns and how to introduce new foods/solids safely into your baby's diet as they develop.
​
Ensuring that you are comfortable and feel confident in your breastfeeding journey moving forward is ultimately my goal in the care I provide.
