Mama, I’ve been there.

My boys are 10 & 8 now, but I dedicated 3.5 years to our breastfeeding relationships. I had no idea what I was doing with my oldest, but I was determined.

We struggled with undiagnosed tongue and lip ties, weight gain issues, oversupply, clogged ducts and mastitis, food sensitivities, high lipase milk, and the inability to leave him with anyone else for 2 years. I remember sitting up at night and crying out of exhaustion and frustration, not knowing what to do to help my baby!

Wasn’t this supposed to be easy, and…natural? Moms deserve better than this.

I want you to feel educated, prepared, and held. You deserve that! I am here for you.

“Kaylen supported our breastfeeding journey through a lip and tongue tie (and revision), reflux, oversupply, and craniosacral issues. She was comforting, a listening ear often and more than helpful. We love Kaylen and feel so grateful for her!”
