Jane is so wonderful at what she does and allows you to give yourself grace as a first time and breastfeeding mama. I went to see Jane for a second opinion after several coworkers had recommended her as my first lactation consultant was just not helpful at all. Jane was supportive and attentive, and I just felt so at peace. read more

Jane is great at helping navigate your breastfeeding journey. She supported me as a first time mom navigate low supply, helping my baby gain weight, and generally be more comfortable breastfeeding. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Jane is the absolute best. I initially met her with my first child in 2019. Breastfeeding was not easy for me and she was available 24/7 for questions and concerns. She also came to my house and spent over an hour with me on latch techniques. Overall, for a first time mom she always wanted to make sure I felt confident and supported during this journey. Fast forward 2 years later, I welcomed 2 more boys to the family! I made the decision to exclusively pump due to having such a hard time with my first. Jane was fully supportive and spent time talking me through things to do in order to build a great supply. She has continued to be supportive, kind and incredibly knowledgable with any question that I might have around pumping / problems. I can't recommend JOC Lactation Consultants enough - without them my breastfeeding / pumping journey would not be successful. read more

Breastfeeding is HARD. I can't say Jane magically makes it easy, but she does give you the tools and the hope you need to get through that first incredibly hard week. When my son continued to lose weight after leaving the hospital, our pediatrician recommended Jane. The very next day, she came to our house (in Chicago) for an in-home consultation. Not only did she provide before/after weigh-ins for my baby (to determine how much he was taking from each breast during a feeding), but she also answered all my questions and taught us a bunch of super helpful tricks that only an experienced baby whisperer would know. She confirmed our baby had a minor tongue tie (but not enough to require a revision.) And she even provided a few tips for my husband too -- like how to do the "colic carry" and how to pace bottle feed. After the appointment, Jane continued to answer questions/concerns I had via text. Even with all that support, after another week, I was still super paranoid that my son wasn't getting enough milk, so I attended JOC's "Lactation Station," a 1.5-hour long group feeding where Jane and team weigh baby after each boob to determine how much he's taking in. Luckily, Jane confirmed my baby was doing great and had gotten back to his birthweight! My baby is now 12 weeks old, and I'm considering attending another session to better gauge how much I'll need to pump per bottle when I go back to work. Otherwise you just don't know how much milk your baby is used to drinking per feeding. Just show up with your baby, a diaper bag, and a button down shirt (ha!) JOC provides a breastfeeding pillow, floor mat, and backrest. read more

Jane is amazing! She put my mind at ease when my newborn was having feeding issues after birth. She gave me tons of tips and advice to support me on my breastfeeding journey. I'd recommend every new mom who wants to breastfeed go see Jane :)! read more

This review is a little late but as I approach my #2's delivery date, I'm getting a little anxious about breastfeeding bc i didn't have a good experience with my first. I wanted to share my experience with JOC bc it was a huge letdown. Not only was Jane's in-home lactation the worst waste of time and money, a real discouragement for a new breastfeeding mom. She refused to even work with my son bc he was being fussy(newsflash, he's an infant!). She was so impatient that he was crying when she was trying to weigh him and made us feel like something was wrong with him. He was a little tongue tied and had a frenulectomy to help him latch better. She made excuses about that and didn't give us any helpful advice. After a bs session that had nothing to do with helping my bf-ing concerns, she billed us $225 for her short visit. And here's the real kicker, she asked us for $6 for the metered parking. No shame and so unprofessional! I've had several free lactation consultation at the hospital and that way more helpful and encouraging than my experience with Jane. read more

Jane and her team were absolute game changers for me as I was starting my breastfeeding journey with my first newborn. From small hacks to help make it all easier; to professional, thorough in home consultations when Lucia was just born that put me on the right path; to answering my calls and texts promptly, I couldn't have done it (and it enjoyed it!) without Jane's guidance. I attended several lactation station group sessions for quick tips (and breastfeeding camaraderie) and the back to work class to help me a successful working and nursing mom. They gave me the confidence I needed to nurse my baby exclusively for the first six months. I'm so grateful to her and cannot recommend her highly enough for any new breastfeeding mom (or any mom encountering challenges breastfeeding). Lucia is strong and smiley and I'll always cherish those moments we had together. Thank you Jane!!! Sorry I had some many questions... :) read more

I was hell bent on BF'ing the LO when he arrived. But shit wasn't happening. An ounce after 45 mins of pumping??? I shined the Batman signal for JOC. As soon as my girl arrived, she walked in my door and said "Oh! You have tube shaped boobs. Milking wont be easy.". Well then...Okay. She sat with me and watched me pump and watched LO latch. Everything was textbook. But I just wasnt producing enough milk. She said to stop killing myself and just use formula. It wasn't worth it. And although she's an advocate of BF (of course) she's also an advocate of easy and comfortable and making sure I'm fine. This is what makes me love JOC. They know not everyone has the ability and they still stand 100% behind your decision either way. I highly highly recommend JOC. Theyre down to earth practical and supportive no matter what read more

I would highly recommend JOC Consultants to anyone looking to improve their breastfeeding experience. Jane is such a natural with babies, you can tell she truly loves them. Breastfeeding became so much easier after just one visit with Jane, it was amazing! I hesitated for weeks on whether or not to contact a lactation consultant and wish I would have reached out right away. My baby has a better latch and eats more efficiently. The best part - if you have any questions afterwards you can call her and she talks you through any questions you have. Highly recommend!! read more

So glad I went to Jane. I went a few weeks after I had my son, I wasn't breastfeeding but exclusively pumping and I wanted to make sure I was doing everything right and that he was laching correctly and eating well. She was very easy to talk to, showed me a few tips and tricks. Most importantly she was the one who caught that he favored looking to one side, which turned into a torticollis diagnosis. Thanks to her we caught it easy and he's in therapy to work the stiff muscles. read more

Jane is supportive, kind, helpful and very responsive. Works to determine a plan that is good for your entire family. Jane and her team responded to calls and questions same day. She's very sweet and pleasant to be around. Makes you feel very comfortable and has some great advice not only for feeding but babies in general. Highly recommend JOC Lactation Consultants. read more

Jamie came out and gave me a couple of tips such as give him a bottle at night instead of nursing since my baby falls asleep while breastfeeding. She also recommended that I take the baby to physical therapy to help with latching. When we were making no progress I texted for support. Jamie suggested I go to Lactation Station which is $30 a visit. At Lactation Station there were about 15 ladies and two consultants. The main take away I got was that they thought I was over feeding my baby with a bottle. read more

Because of JOC the seemingly impossible became possible - I have successfully been breastfeeding my son for over two months now and not only is the experience pain-free but I am also enjoying breastfeeding. Had you asked me two months ago how I thought our feeding journey would progress I never could have predicted such a great outcome. People tell you that breastfeeding can be painful but I didn't fully comprehend just how much pain one could be in until I gave birth to my son. Within 12 hours of giving birth my nipples were bleeding and I was sobbing through feedings. After 11 days of terribly painful feedings I exclusively pumped for a week but that is no fun either. I called JOC in desperation hoping they could help me figure something out but I was doubtful anyone could truly make breastfeeding comfortable enough for me to be willing to continue. Jane came out to my home less than 24 hours after I first called and I immediately felt comfortable with her. I was truly amazed that breastfeeding could induce such little pain! Jane showed me several different positions, pointed out many different issues that my son and I had, and helped me learn how to manage those issues. Jane is exceptionally available to her clients and answered numerous calls and texts from me over the several weeks following our consultation. I also attended Lactation Station a few times to help refine our technique and address some additional issues that presented themselves after the bigger issues (an upper lip tie, poor latching and unlatching, etc.) were resolved. Jane answered questions for me about dealing with engorgement when my son started sleeping long stretches through the night, what to do when my son initially rejected previously frozen milk, how to navigate a tough cold without decreasing your supply, and much more. When it came time to attend the Back to Work class I was traveling for the holidays so Jane contacted Vanessa and arranged for me to receive a digital copy of the materials and then have a follow-up phone call with Vanessa. I am so thankful for the way the team went above and beyond to help me be prepared for my transition back to work. Two short months ago I couldn't possibly imagine how anyone could breastfeed for an entire year (as the AAP recommends) but now I feel this is a completely realistic goal. I know that it can be frustrating spending money on a Lactation Consultant when you have so many other expenses coming in but this is a service that will more than pay for itself - formula is expensive and JOC can help you persevere through breastfeeding. read more

Jane is the best! I came in a week postpartum in so much pain that I would nearly cry every time I was nursing. I was ready to give up so many times and Jane helped me make realistic goals to stick with breast feeding. She was kind, caring, and sensitive to my postpartum hormonal state. She acted like a therapist as much as a lactation consultant. She made it feel like it wasn't my fault and did not make me feel guilty for taking a nursing break to let myself heal. She also did not make me feel guilty about giving my baby formula. After our three visits, my nipples had healed and I am fully breastfeeding without the need to pump. Highly recommend. read more

Jane and her team are amazing for so many reasons, but in a nutshell, it's their speed and the helpfulness of information they provide. I've asked Jane for help a few times now - first when Benji just arrived and I wanted some general breastfeeding tips, then again at 3 months when he wouldn't take a bottle two weeks before daycare, and most recently when I was on a business trip and was having a pumping crisis that nearly caused mastitis. Jane is always super quick to reply, has a firm but calming energy, and provides really helpful tips. Thanks again for all your help, Jane! read more

Jane is amazing! After we brought my son home from the hospital we had the worst two weeks. My son would not let us put him down without screaming bloody murder this included all night. At the same time I was also having problems with his latch, so at my wits end I called Jane in hopes of getting some help. She was wonderful and came out the next day to my houseconcerned that my baby's issues couldn't wait. Turns out my son was screaming and refusing to be put down because he wasn't being fed enough. She was so patient taking the time to give me suggestions and tons of information. Like many others she texted me the following day and told me to call her cell if I have any other questions. That night was the first peaceful night we had and it's all thanks to Jane! read more

I cannot recommend Jane highly enough! After giving birth to our son, we had some issues with jaundice and weight loss. The nurses and pediatrician were urging me to supplement with formula. Every nurse also had different breast feeding techniques, and there were no lactation consultants at the hospital right before the holiday weekend. My husband found Jane's information on Yelp. We spoke Saturday morning while I was in the hospital about how to supplement with breast milk - which was immediately successful. Jane offered to come over that Monday (which was Labor Day) if we had any issues and outlined her fees while we were on the phone. With all the different information we were receiving I set up an appointment right away. Jane came to our home and couldn't have been more positive and reassuring. She answered all of our questions (there were a lot of them). Jane has also called to follow-up on our son's progress with weight gain and breastfeeding. I cannot thank Jane enough for getting us on the right track and would recommend her services to anyone. She truly cares about all of her mothers and babies. read more

If I could give 100 stars, I would! As a new mom, I needed more "training" and reassurance than my friends and family could give me. While breastfeeding came relatively easy, I needed help at 4 weeks with introducing bottle feeding, gas, additional soothing, etc. Jane was absolutely wonderful: she is helpful, reassuring, encouraging and positive. She's very real and is not dogmatic. I called her for follow up advice at 3 months because I needed to start weening for work (I travel and don't have great pumping accommodations on the road). She never questioned why I only breastfed for 3 months, but instead asked me questions about why I felt I needed to ween and gave me great advice and resources. Of ALL of the things my husband and I have purchased or invested in for the baby, JOC is by far the most valuable! read more

I called JOC Consultants directly after our first pediatrician appointment at 4 days old when our son was weighed and he was down 14 oz, or 11% from his birth weight. He was born on a Thursday evening and my milk came in 3 days later but I was having trouble getting it to let down for him to eat. I called JOC around 11am on a Monday and Jamie was at our house at 8:30am the next day. She was absolutely wonderful and very supportive and positive. She was very affectionate to our sweet little boy and immediately assessed what the issue was and helped me both breastfeed and pump. She also followed up a day later with a text asking how everything was going which I really appreciated. I would recommend Jamie and JOC to any new moms or anyone who has questions that could use some personalized consulting. They are great! read more

Jane is a superhero. We had a busy first week with our little one -- a few days in the NICU meant our baby needed to eat so she got pumped milk & some formula since latching wasn't happening enough for baby to get her blood glucose up or clear her bilirubin. Jane coudn't see us for a few days (we called on a weekend) but her intern called to check in and offered incredibly helpful advice to help us before our visit with Jane. Jane came to our house on a rainy morning. Truly she was in the door 10 minutes and our baby was breastfeeding! Jane was calm and made me calm down. She showed us positions for breastfeeding, holds to get baby girl chilled out and reassured us about just about everything. Over the past two weeks baby girl and I have really rocked out at breastfeeding because of Jane's help. We can't thank Jane & her team enough! read more

Joc is fantastic. I worked with Jane and she helped me 6 weeks post partum to continue to breast feed and pump. She is patient and encouraging and down to earth. She also helped me when I was nursing/pumping 12 months out and transitioning to stopping milk production . I can't recommend her enough. I have already recommended her to all my friends having babies and I'm sure I will use her again with baby #2! read more

Such a great experience! Francesca is lovely- caring, Professional and warm. I was able to get a same day appointment when I needed it most and now these early days with bebe are much happier and pain free. No need to look further- JOC will help you. read more

Jane is incredible! I don't think I could have gone through my breastfeeding journey without her.  Breastfeeding was so daunting, but she made it seem approachable and realistic by setting short term goals with me. Appointments with Jane were always super helpful. She has so much experience and a wealth of knowledge in the industry. She gave helpful instructions for nursing and pumping. She follows up on her appointments by calling to check in on you.  This personal touch meant so much - I felt supported and cared for.  As a new mom during this pandemic, I was very cautious with in-person appointments. I felt very safe going to her office space. Jane takes great care in masking/shielding and sanitizing to make sure everything was clean and safe.   I will recommend her over and over again. read more

Jane is an incredible lactation consultant - several friends recommended her to me and I have since recommended her to many people - I still say she was the most important and helpful person I saw in my postpartum period! She is so understanding and great at troubleshooting - the lactation consultant who saw me at the hospital wasn't really able to help and just suggested a nipple shield. Jane had baby and me latched and ready to go within 1 meeting and we have had a wonderful time nursing since. I was actually in tears at our meeting, (happy tears!) so glad to be able to nurse without pain. She does a fabulous job of follow up as well - so whether its a quick phone call with a question, or at the lactation station which I've been to, you feel like you are part of the JOC family once you work with Jane or her team members. I am getting ready to go back to work and I also attended the "Back to work" Class last week. The class was fantastic! It was great to be able to meet other new moms who are in the same position I am. I brought my pump to class and it was particularly helpful to hear from an experienced working mom how she problem solves different scenarios (traveling with breastmilk, pumping in the car, and using the friday freeze to keep your freezer stash fresh.) Call the JOC lactation team - you will not regret it. read more

Had a great experience with Francesca! She was super knowledgeable, friendly and professional! She helped us create a realistic schedule and gave us some great pointers on positioning, cues, etc. would highly recommend JOC Lactation for both preventative and problem solving areas within breastfeeding! read more

JOC was recommended to me through my pediatrician. First of all, when I called to set up a meeting, they literally came the same day within 2 hours! They come right to your house which is very convenient with a newborn. Our consultant was Francesca. She was very professional, knowledgeable and made us very comfortable. Most importantly, she taught us how to help our newborn (he was 1 week old) with positioning, feeding cues and how to tell if he was eating well. This was a huge contribution to our breastfeeding success. She also gave us tips and tricks for feeding and pumping. Very worth it! read more

I never write reviews but Francesca really blew us away with her knowledge and expert advice. My wife was doing a good job pumping but our new born daughter wasn't feeding that long when it was time to nurse, she kept falling asleep at the breast. My wife decided to reach out to JOC and out came Francesca to the rescue. She gave my wife some great tips, how to position the baby during the feedings to get the best latch possible, how to to best express to maximize milk production, how to carry the baby when its time to burp (my daughter burbs a lot, even with breastfeeding), and made some recommendations on correct pump parts for my wife's breast. Francesca is truly passionate about what she does and exceeded all expectations. read more

Thank goodness for Jane and her team at JOC Lactation Consultants. She was recommended by our pediatrician after our daughter was found to have a tongue tie that was interfering with her breastfeeding. She had lost about 11% of her weight 5 days after her birth. Frantic, I called JOC and spoke to Francesca, who was so helpful and friendly! She was able to schedule us for an in-home consultation that same afternoon. She even offered an available appointment within 2 hours of my call, but I was actually already on my way to another appointment. We were originally scheduled to meet with Jamie, but Jane herself called when she was on her way to let me know she was going to meet with us. Jane immediately put me at ease about the whole process and taught me a lot during our session, especially that what my baby and I were going through were pretty common issues with nursing. She is not only extremely knowledgeable but passionate about what she does and genuinely concerned about your breastfeeding issues! She also recommended getting Oona's tongue tie clipped to help with latching. It was good to get a second opinion especially from a lactation consultant on whether or not the procedure was really necessary. She even referred us to several pediatric ENT physicians that she highly recommended. She also gave great recommendations on helpful books and nursing items (nipple shields, breast shields, what can increase milk production, etc.). The amount of information can be overwhelming, but she summarizes everything on a sheet and also emails you a copy of what she's discussed during the session. Jane also followed-up by phone a few days later to check on Oona's weight gain (after her 1 week newborn appointment) and how I was doing. She is very accessible via phone and email. I hope to check out the Lactation Station in the future when I am ready to start weaning Oona off the nipple shield and before I return to work. I would have gone sooner, but we're currently dealing with the repair and restoration of our flooded basement. I cannot thank Jane enough for her help. Breastfeeding is hard enough, but I definitely would not have been able to do it successfully without her assistance. Oona was 7 lb 8 oz at birth, then dropped down to 6 lbs 10 oz when we met with Jane 6 days later. She bounced back to 7 lb 7 oz at her 2 week appointment the following week. At her 1 month check up last week she was 8 lb 15 oz. Oona thanks you too! read more

I was having a really tough time breast feeding, and after 3 weeks of frustration, I called my pediatrician's office (Town & Country) who referred me to JOC Consulting. I called Jane O'Connor on Thursday afternoon, and she showed up at my door the very next morning, what a Godsend! Jane is not only a board certified lactation consultant, she is a pediatric nurse with a masters in infant and child development. Her experience shows! She helped improve my breast feeding experience by leaps and bounds - it was like night and day difference from the help (or lack there of) I received at Prentice. She showed me different positions, offered easy latching tips, and even gave me pointers on pumping! Jane really went above and beyond, she showed me a cute exercise to relieve my daughter's gas, she even showed me how to use my baby sling! She recommended a great support group, left me with a folder of helpful resources, and even followed up to see how we were doing! I really can't say enough about how much Jane tremendously helped us. I don't know if I would have stuck with it without her! read more

After 4 months of uneventful breastfeeding I developed a milk blister (a clogged nipple pore that causes engorgement and creates a very painful backup) after wearing tight fitting workout clothes for one day. I tried the suggested at home remedies that my OB recommended for more than 24 hours and wasn't getting any relief. In pain and out of desperation I called JOC at 6:45am on a weekday leaving a message with details on my situation expecting that I probably wouldn't get a call until after 8am when they open for the day. I was wrong as Jane called me back before 8am with additional suggestions of what I needed to do at home. She asked for my email so that she could send me a video on a massage technique and information on supplements that could help prevent clogs in the future. She then suggested that I may need to lance the blister with a sterile needle and follow up to prevent inflammation and infection. We ended our conversation with Jane asking that I text her with an update on how I was feeling that evening. Jane made all the effort to help me without having met me or receiving any payment. That tells me this is a person who really cares about the well being of moms. I would highly recommend using their services and will be recommending them to all my pregnant friends should they need at home assistance. read more

I can't say enough great things about the support I received from Jamie. Being my first baby, I had no idea how hard and complicated breast feeding is. After a couple rough weeks and learning that my baby girl wasn't gaining the weight she should be, the pediatrician said I should call a Lactation Consultant. Jamie came over the same day and helped me with a plan to get my baby gaining weight and in less than a week she gained a half a pound. Jamie has been extremely nice to work with and 500% more helpful than I could've asked for. I also attended the Lactation Station group and found that to be very helpful too. I'm so thankful for the referral from the pediatrician and for Jamie's support through this crazy new motherhood thing! read more

Jamie was a total godsend. Our home visit was the best money I spent on perinatal services. She provided forms to submit to insurance, was organized, compassionate and super skilled at helping me understand breastfeeding and implementing skills with my son. I really enjoy that I can follow up with her at lactation clinics throughout the week and can meet with other moms too. JOC is doing things right and will help you address your concerns and fears. read more

I contacted JOC regarding my infants (lack of) use of a bottle. They were able to provide me with a helpful handout and called me to discuss a few tips. I respect that they stated an in-home consult would not be beneficial and were willing to discuss a few tips over the phone. Some companies could have taken advantage and charged me for a home visit. I will definitely consider their back to work class and other services they offer if needed. Also, their response to my inquiry was very quick, calling me back within a few hours of when I left a message. read more

Jane is amazing! We delivered our daughter on a Thursday morning and spent two frustrating days at Prentice trying to nurse her, to little avail. I called Jane on the Sunday after we returned home and she was at our place on Tuesday (Monday was a holiday). Our daughter hadn't nursed in three days; we were using formula simply to get her some nourishment. Jane was probably in our house 10 - 15 minutes and our daughter was latched on and nursing like a champ. Jane helped with small tricks and little things that I wasn't doing quite right. What I liked most, though, was that she was completely non-judgmental (some LCs would probably cringe at the fact that we dared to give our daughter formula) and her only concern was getting us on the right track. She wasn't interested in dissecting what we had been doing wrong or forcing her opinions on us. Not only that, but she's very matter of fact/tell it like it is. I was really comfortable with her immediately when she walked in our door. In addition to getting our daughter to nurse, she also gave us lots of other little tips, information on mom and lactation groups in the area, and advice when requested. She called to follow-up on our progress a day or two after our consultation, and she was also good about returning my call when I had a moment of panic. Obviously I can't say enough good things about Jane and the service she provides. If you are having any challenges with breastfeeding, do yourself a favor and call Jane. The expertise and peace of mind she provides are priceless. read more

Jane was such a blessing when I met with her after struggling with breast feeding my daughter. She was so reassuring and helpful, and I especially appreciated the weight checks before and after nursing that gave an objective assessment of how much baby was getting with feeding. She also checked in with me about a week after our visit and has quickly responded to texts with questions. I think one of the greatest thing about her practice is that you can see her at the Lactation Station any Thursday at Sweet Pea's Studio if you need further help! I would recommend her to anyone looking for assistance with breast feeding. read more

I highly recommend JOC Lactation Consultants. I called Jane and one of her consultants Laura came to my rescue within a days notice. My 8 week old newborn had nipple confusion and was refusing to breastfeed. She only wanted the bottle and it was such a frustrating process on my own. I had every gadget trying to get her to BF again and it wasn't working. Laura was extremely patient, yet straightforward with how I should tackle my BF issues. She gave me great reassurance that we'd have my baby latching on again. It took a couple weeks but we finally got there. I also did a drop in at one of their clinics - MotherMe. The owner of MotherMe is also another wonderful resource! Just having someone to lean on for support and advice was huge for me. She continuously checked in making sure I was doing OK. I wouldn't have continued to BF if it wasn't for Laura. read more

Jane is simply amazing. I called her 2 months before having my LO and she was able to provide a very comprehensive list of resources that I can proactively look at before actually having my daughter. Once I had my daughter, the first thing I did when I got home was call Jane. She remembered who I was and we scheduled an onsite consultation right away. When Jane and Heidi came to the house, I was immediately drawn to their energy. Jane made me feel comfortable and more positive about nursing my daughter (btw - I was really nervous about being able to produce because I had challenges with my first baby). Her passion and enthusiasm was noticed right away and I got to tell you - it's contagious. I became more positive about nursing and thanks to her guidance, I was able to produce a lot more than I would have ever thought! I had a follow-up consultation with her and my LO had gained weight and was on track. I was nursing and pumping regularly and I went from pumping 2 oz to pumping 8-9 oz. She helped me understand that persistence was key and anything was something! What I love about Jane the most is how caring she is... She makes you feel like you are her only client. She called to check up on me after the consultations and that was very thoughtful. She has truly been a blessing for me and my LO. I would highly recommend her and her team! read more

I have a friend who is about to have a baby and was a little worried about nursing. I told her about Jane and waxing nostalgic about how great it was to work with her, so I though I would write this. I was in pain 3 days after my daughter was born. I called Jane and she came the same day. She was supportive, loving, knowledgeable, compassionate and professional. I cannot say enough about Jane's approach and comforting presence. She helped me both logistically and emotionally, and the relief was immediate. To say that it was worth the money is not an apt phrase because there is no price tag that I would have been able to put on her intervention and support in my life at that moment. Every single new mother should have this kind of positive experience when learning to breastfeed. Jane, I hope you never retire! read more

The best. Period. She just makes everything better. I would not have continued breastfeeding for almost one year now-if it wasn't for Jane and her team. The classes she holds during the week were wonderful. I can't recommend her enough!! We love you Jane!!! read more

Jane O'connor is wonderful! If you are having any difficulty breastfeeding, or just need to make sure you are on track I would highly recommend calling Jane. My son was born a 5 weeks early, so naturally I thought that breastfeeding was going to be an uphill battle, not to mention he was tongue was tied. Jane came over the day after we arrived home (I called her that morning). She was wonderful, had a non judgemental, upbeat way about her, with a great sense o humor (really helped lighten the mood). She was able to show us a few different positions, as well as some things that my husband could do to get our lil guy ready to breastfeed (he was a little sleepy in the beginning). Jane left us with much more hope that I could still breastfeed despite a few little issues that could be worked out. Jane also has followed up the past few days to make sure everything is going well. It has been wonderful to know that she is there if we have any questions. I cannot say it enough how wonderful Jane has been. I can honestly say she is one of the main reasons that I haven't completely stopped breastfeeding, and she has given my husband and I enough direction to keep on going. If you need ANY type of breastfeeding help, CALL JANE YOU WONT BE disappointed. read more
