Testimonials

When I got pregnant the number one advice I got was to hire a lactation consultant- the same name was given each time as a recommendation and now I know why! We started working with Brittany when my twins were two weeks old.

She has given me so much peace in such a hectic time of our life. She not only helped me learn how to latch and breast feed my preemies but directed me to the proper people to help with their tongue and lip ties! On top of that she talked me through finding out their food allergies to help them feed comfortably.

There was no judgement on how I wanted to feed my kids and she took my feelings and wants into consideration the whole time. She helped me come up with feeding and pumping schedules and would even help me change them as the weeks went on.

She is an out of the box thinker with an insane amount of knowledge and I will recommend her to every expecting mom to be- I even have second time moms that have used her and loved her!

I recently had my 5th baby and he was the first of ours to need a lip and tongue revision. I thought we would be just fine after the procedure but I soon learned I needed expert help and FAST. I reached out to NLC (bonus that my insurance covered her visits) and as soon as Brittany walked in my door, there was immediate help and relief. She’s calm and peaceful and gentle and encouraging. She is who you want in your corner when you don’t have much fight left. She guided me through every BF issue we were having with #5 and all the ways I needed to help him recover *properly.* This gave me confidence to know I was now giving him the best care - no more worries. Brittany also gave me priceless guidance on my specific BF schedule needs, unusual pain, customized pumping tips and nursing “tools” that I’ll need over the next few months. She provided very tailored information that I’m so grateful to now know. She’s a wealth of knowledge and I wish I had known about her starting with my first pregnancy! Even with having a fair share of experience, I still feel I would have benefitted greatly for each child and would have saved myself a lot of unnecessary stress and pain while having the guidance I needed to breastfeed longer than I was able. Don’t hesitate to message her - I’m telling you, it’s worth it!!

I was recommended to use Brittany from a friend who had similar challenges as me when it came to breast feeding ( delayed supply, tongue tie, etc). I will say I couldn’t be happier with her! She helped me and my baby get to my goal (exclusive breastfeeding) and was available via text during the entire process. She even helped me BEFORE I met with her, recommending bottle types, pacifier types, pumps etc. - which as a FTM was what I needed to calm any pre baby anxiety. Brittany is so personable and cares about mom and baby in a way that makes you feel safe and trusting. I would 1000% use her again even if I think I don’t need help.. because most likely I do. Everyone could benefit from her knowledge and experience when it comes to ensuring your little one is well fed, healthy, and happy :)

Brittany is phenomenal! I can’t say enough about her. I was put in contact with her when my family was really struggling. She was sent by God and he knew exactly what I needed. Brittany is patient. Brittany takes the time to get to know your baby and your family dynamic. Brittany was the only one to keep pushing me, in a loving way, when I couldn’t see the other side. Brittany checks on you at any time of day and on weekends. If we are blessed to have another baby, Brittany is my first call to come and coach me thru. You won’t regret meeting and working with her.

Brittany was an absolute blessing to us on our breastfeeding journey. I almost gave up many times but her encouragement and willingness to work with me to get me over the hump truly got us to the best place possible. She helped diagnose my daughter’s tongue tie and put me in touch with amazing doctors to release it and follow up with care. Brittany was thorough, extremely knowledgeable, communicative and caring. It was lovely and comfortable having her in my home, in our space, to teach and guide us on breastfeeding. I 100% will be hiring her again to be there the day I come home from the hospital with my next baby!

Brittany was a lifesaver in our breastfeeding journey. She not only is an expert with breastfeeding, she’s an expert with infants as well! I made an appointment because our baby had not been gaining weight well and I was experiencing pain with breastfeeding. Brittany helped us determine what was wrong, take steps to correct it, and had several amazing referrals to help with our baby’s oral ties. Not only is she knowledgeable and friendly during appointments, but she is also quick to respond to messages with questions between appointments which is so helpful when you’re a new parent navigating feeding a newborn! After a few weeks of working with Brittany, our baby is gaining weight and we are exclusively breastfeeding! I’m so grateful we found her!

Brittany was extremely knowledgeable in helping me and my baby get the most out of our breastfeeding journey. He was born at 35 weeks so the transition from pumping/bottling to solely on the breast was a different journey than with my first, but she made it seamless and made it make sense. She was also instrumental in making sure I was properly fitted for my pumps, which I definitely couldn’t have done myself. I also didn’t use her services until my second baby and I wish I had for my first!! She is a game changer! The postpartum journey is already hard enough, so do yourself a favor and use Nourish!

Brittany with nourish lactation care is an absolute genius and is an expert in her field. She was extremely professional and also extremely thorough and spent a ton of time with my son and I and was extremely helpful. She made quite a few recommendations and made sure I was properly fitted for my pump and gave me so many invaluable tips for my breast-feeding journey. I feel very hopeful with the plan of action that she has given us and would highly recommend her for any Lactation/feeding needs.

Brittany helped me tremendously! Before, I was using a nipple shield and barely transferring, having to pump at least 4 times a day and supplementing with bottles for every single feeding. Now, after fixing his tongue and lip tie and with the help of Brittany’s advice over 3 visits, I no longer use the nipple shield and I haven’t pumped or given him a bottle in 2 weeks!! He’s growing healthy and I have gotten so much of my life back and couldn’t have done any of this without Brittany. Thank you so much!

With out a doubt I would not have been able to breastfeed my baby without Brittany! I vividly remember the day that I contacted her… I was a sobbing, train wreck, hot mess. Brittany could not have been more kind, understanding, non-judgmental, comforting, supportive and helpful! I can not say enough about her and what she has done for us! Having her come to my home made a world of difference to be comfortable in my space allowed us to be the most successful! I was told by more than one professional that I wouldn’t be able to breastfeed but Brittany made a step by step plan for us to work through. She was so so soooo supportive! Each week she would LISTEN, and hear our needs, and meet us where we were at! Together we would make a plan/schedule to implement until I saw her again. Each week got better & better & better! And not just breastfeeding!! Because brittany has so much experience and has devoted so much time to her specialty, she was able to identify his tongue tie (that 3 pediatricians and 3 other lactation consultants missed!!), help us get his reflux & gas much improved by recognizing he has a food intolerance, she helped us with major skin break down on his bottom, mastitis, bottle feeding, pumping…. She really was able to see the whole picture and I am so extremely grateful! When others were unable to help in week one, brittany stuck with us and guided us for several weeks and I can say we were able to to exclusively breastfeed!!!! She really was my source of sanity during this whole process. If you are having ANY difficulty breastfeeding I 100% recommend you schedule an appointment! Even if you think the problem is too little or in my case too BIG…. You WILL have a more successful breastfeeding journey!

Brittany with Nourish Lactation Care made my postpartum journey so much better than I thought possible. I needed help with learning how to get my baby to latch because I felt lost when leaving the hospital. She helped my baby latch, measured me for my flange size for pumping, helped me pick out better pump accessories based on my breast tissue. She helped me during a time when I didn’t know what I needed and I’m forever grateful. I wanted to give up on breastfeeding but because of her my baby is now getting 100% breastmilk because I stuck with it and followed her advice. She comes to your home, which we all need when we have a new baby at home. She is available to message with questions or concerns as well.
I highly recommend her to all moms during this journey!

If you are considering breastfeeding I highly recommend Brittany! Learn from my mistakes and get with her sooner rather than later. I suffered and struggled and I didn’t have to. Brittany has saved my breastfeeding journey more than once. I love that she comes to you, so you can be comfortable in your own home. She not only helped with my success in breastfeeding but has taught me so much more. She has also guided me through reading my babies body language, helped us overcome ties, teething, educated me on pumping and so much more. I also love that as we transition through different stages and new questions arise I’m able to contact her through a portal and receive professional advice, guidance or even links for items that may be helpful.

Brittany completely saved my breastfeeding journey!

With my first 2 girls, breastfeeding came relatively easily so when I couldn’t breastfeed my son, I felt like a total failure. I finally got some nursing shields and he was able to nurse a little bit, but when the pediatrician said he was losing weight we had to give him bottles that I pumped. Eventually, he wouldn’t nurse at all and I was exclusively pumping. This was HARD and EXHAUSTING. For our 1 month check up, I finally asked if he could maybe be evaluated for a tie (no one had mentioned this possibility to me before) and our pediatrician recommended Brittany. She could easily see he had a pretty bad lip and tongue tie, which was confirmed by the dentist that does the procedures to release. Brittany walked me through the entire journey of the procedure and the therapy afterwards for several weeks. It was tough but she was so supportive, knowledgeable, and patient. She helped with all aspects including pumping parts, correct bottles and pacifiers, mastitis, and teaching him how to start nursing again. I am soooooo sooo happy to say that we are now exclusively breastfeeding again. I really had given up hope and thought I’d have to just switch to formula because it was too much on my mental health to keep up with pumping. Brittany showed me how to take things one little step at a time and to never put too much pressure on the timing of the results, just to focus on the step we were on. She is amazing, and any mama struggling needs to see her. The lactation consultants at the hospital cannot be compared, because Brittany is light years ahead when it comes to experience! Thank you Brittany!!!

Brittany was so caring & honestly concerned about my mental health from only breastfeeding for 6 days. She helped me process & understand what I was dealing with. I felt like after our visit I knew her for several years when I only just meet her. She made me feel very accepting of my choice to stop breastfeeding for my mental health not only for me but for my child. I am so grateful & thankful for her quick response to meet me.

I’m so grateful for Brittany. Our journey did not start out as planned. I hired a consultant prior to birth knowing I wanted to get ahead of any potential issues and to set ourselves up for a success breastfeeding journey. That person gave us less than the bare minimum in time, assessment, and support. After three weeks of not even coming close to meeting desired goals, plenty of frustration, and even more tears, we called in Brittany. She spent an ample amount of time and was super thorough in assessment and planning. Unlike our prior consultant, I didn’t have to ask her to do anything: she checked every box off as part of her normal procedure. She didn’t leave me wanting and needing anything, no rock unturned, and no question went unanswered. I now had achievable goals, tools to help accomplish them, and the much needed guidance and support. She changed our journey for the better and truly changed my life and mindset. I now have a super positive experience with my baby (and my pump, hehe). I cant recommend her highly enough. She is the absolute key to success in any mother’s breastfeeding and postpartum journey.

Brittany absolutely saved my breastfeeding journey! She was the third lactation consultant we saw, and my only regret is that we didn’t use her from the very beginning. She was not only a wealth of knowledge regarding breastfeeding, oral ties, pumping, and bottle feeding, but she was so emotionally supportive during a very difficult postpartum period. She was kind, patient, understanding, and offered highly individualized care. Every baby and journey is different, and Brittany took the time to learn my baby and give us all the tools and support we needed to keep breastfeeding. She truly feels like part of our family now, and I can’t recommend her enough!

I could seriously write a book about Brittany! Coincidentally, she was actually one of our nurses in labor and delivery at St. Tammany, so we were shocked when it was her who was also recommended to us for lactation. My son had so many challenges when it came to feeding, and Brittany was SO helpful. Any time I have mentioned I’m seeing a lactation consultant, people mention how pushy some can be. This was NOT the case with Brittany. She was always so supportive of anything we chose and simply guided us through the process that best met our needs. She helped us to identify a tongue/lip tie, work on comfortable feeding positions, identify a dairy intolerance, and just in general made me feel more confident about my journey. Brittany even used her PERSONAL time to go out of her way and come do a weight check when there were some concerns with my son’s weight. The BEST. Hands down.

I cannot thank Brittany enough for helping me in my breastfeeding journey. I just wish I knew about her services during my pregnancy! Brittany is the sweetest person and truly love her job. She is literally in your corner rooting for you. After our first appointment I’d started back having problems with my baby girl latching, Brittany quickly suggested a second appt for further guidance. Now baby girl and I are thriving in breastfeeding! I also love the fact that Brittany is just a message away if I have questions and need reassurance.

Im a FTM and 5wks postpartum and can honestly say that Brittany has been paramount to preserving my breastfeeding journey and overall postpartum recovery mentally and physically. Brittany first saw me 2days after delivery - I encountered numerous unforeseen issues including overproduction and mastitis and if it wasn't for Brittany I would have been SERIOUSLY ill. She has checked on me nearly every day and was there for me when all other medical professionals failed me. She's a true blessing and I am forever grateful for her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine compassion. My only regret was not seeing her before baby arrived.

Working with Brittany has been key to my success with breastfeeding. The time she invests in her clients is a testament to who she is and her expertise is unparalleled. And she’s so fun and sweet and reassuring when I need it most! Tiffany has been amazing as well and I’m just so thankful for them both! Investing in them has removed the stress from breastfeeding and is so worth it.
