Testimonials

"Michelle's greatest gift to us was stepping in as a clear, strong advocate and providing my husband and me with a logical plan based on decades of experience. I particularly appreciated that she recognized the vital role my husband played in helping our family get to our breastfeeding goal. It took more persistence and commitment than I knew I had, but with Michelle's guidance through pumping, SNS usage, supplements, rest, and frenectomies, we were able to get to 100% breastmilk by 2 months postpartum, and 100% nursing by 3 months postpartum. Our pediatrician stated she had never seen such a successful outcome with breastfeeding, from such a poor start in terms of delayed lactation. Thank you, Michelle!"  ~J.B

"Michelle is a life saver, after going to 4 Lactation consultants in the state where I live I almost lost hope, I still didn't want to give up and reached out to Michelle remotely as she was out of state. Michelle was so positive in all our conversations and within a few weeks of talking to Michelle I was breastfeeding exclusively. Follow what she says and you will be a successful happy breastfeeding mom. She's a great advisor for your baby even outside of lactation concerned topics.  A million thanks to Michelle, I couldn't have done it without her advice." ~ Reka K

“Michelle is known around our house as our 'fairy godmother'. She came into our lives at a critical point in our breastfeeding journey - our daughter was 1 week old, having trouble latching and losing weight. I was in terrible pain from the poor latch and inefficient feeds. My gut told me something wasn't right and I knew I needed help diagnosing our issue. Michelle swept in like a guiding light, quickly assessing our situation and confidently setting up a game-plan. I can't even put into words that feeling of relief knowing I had found someone with such deep knowledge who would show me the path to a successful breastfeeding journey.
Michelle helped us successfully feed our daughter, who quickly started gaining weight and taught me how to protect my supply. I now have a freezer stash of milk and a healthy, happy baby who is exclusively breastfed and growing on her growth curve for 5 months!
Since that day she has continued to follow up with us making sure we are supported. She's provided recommendations of other helpful resources in the Bay Area that have been equally helpful. As our breastfeeding journey has evolved I always know she is an email away for questions or concerns. She responds immediately and puts my mind at ease, giving us the guidance we need to keep going with confidence and success. I now recommend anyone having a baby should find a lactation consultant that is as knowledgeable and dependable as Michelle, because I know how much it has meant to us having her in our corner.” - Olivia and Nick
