Making breastfeeding a positive experience for you and your baby

While breastfeeding is natural, it isn’t always easy. Proper positioning and getting your baby to latch on correctly are just two of the challenges you may face as a breastfeeding mom. Our board-certified lactation consultants are available for private appointments and phone breastfeeding support through our Outpatient Lactation Clinic. We are here to help you with any of the challenges you may face. An appointment with one of our consultants can include sore nipples, preemie concerns, fussiness, engorgement, low milk supply, slow weight gain, breast surgery, pumping, going back to work, jaundice and more.

For questions about our breastfeeding support services, call our lactation specialists at 707-646-5024 or make an appointment at 707-646-5022. You can also attend one of our breastfeeding seminars.
