Juliana was a major help during a very vulnerable time. I booked multiple at-home lactation…read moreconsultations when I was freshly postpartum, and she provided personalized and thorough after-visit reports to support my breastfeeding journey. I was dealing with blood blisters, a poor latch, doubts and fears about supply, and a baby that was temporarily not gaining enough weight. As a first-time mom, it was extremely stressful, and there were many tears. However, Juliana's visits always left me feeling more informed, reassured, and capable. We also did a weighted feed during every visit, which confirmed that my baby was indeed getting enough to eat. I still remember the relief I felt when I learned that. Juliana is a big reason why I decided to stay the course with breastfeeding. (Thank goodness, because now I LOVE it.) My insurance covered the cost of the visits, so I just paid the $60 travel fee. I also attended her breastfeeding class with my husband before giving birth. This was super helpful, but I recommend taking the class within 1 month of your due date. We took it a bit too early in my pregnancy, and forgot a couple things by the time I gave birth. Overall, I would highly recommend booking a lactation consultation with Juliana if you're in need of support!

I was a mess, recovering from a cesarean, had just spent 78 days in antepartum, had a baby in the NICU, hormonal, etc so just needed the process to go smoothly. And that it did! I called over and was assured that there were plenty of pumps in stock. When I arrived, the clerk greeted me right away. I asked about insurance, etc. and got everything squared away as far as payments. She let me vent to her a little about the day I was having and displayed so much empathy. She then carried the pump out to the car for me since I couldn't lift due to my c-section. When I called later to ask for more information for my insurance, she gave me very clear instructions on who I could call to get the information I needed. It was such a seamless process and I'm so happy to have gotten my pump in a timely manner.

The parking was easy (free if they validate). The store was small, but had all the essentials and the service was amazing. They offered some great advice about my pump and even looked over the other features to make sure all was in tip top shape! While I was looking around there was a new mother, in her hospital gown, being helped with finding a nursing bra. How cool is that! She just had a baby, her milk had come in, and she didn't have to change out of her hospital gown or leave the hospital to find a nursing bra. That's amazing service! Why every hospital doesn't offer this is beyond me! The sales ladies are so sweet and so helpful. This place is wonderful!

We actually have quite a few Infantino products in our household. Our biggest one is the SlingRider (an over-the-shoulder baby carrier/sling). It's supposed to be really good for comforting a baby since it places a baby close to a woman's stomach. You'll probably have to ask my wife for more info on it (if you're curious). We also have a handful of their baby toys, which the li'l one loves to slobber all over. I'm sure that as she grows, we'll be adding more Infantino products to our rapidly growing collection of baby stuff. If you're looking for Infantino products, you won't have to go too far. We frequent Target and always find some of their stuff in-stock. I'm sure Babies R Us and Wal-Mart carry Infantino products as well.

We're big on thrifting and resale because kids grow way too fast to be paying full price for clothes they'll outgrow in a few months. Only thing that had me bummed was hearing the owner might be trying to sell the business. I really hope this place stays open, 'cause spots like this are important for families in the community. If you got kids and want good quality clothes without spending crazy money, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out.
