I was looking at different lactation consultants in the area and noticed she was recommended in a local moms group. I contacted her and she replied right away and came for a consultation the next day. She was able to find that my son had a severe lip tie and gave me the information to a dentist who could perform the procedure. She was so helpful throughout the session. She gave me tips and information I wish I had with my first son. I also really liked that she would let me know when she needed to fix my son and physically touch me. That made me feel very comfortable. She was also very patient while my son was so sleepy and we couldn't get him to wake up so that he would latch. She followed up with me a few days later to check in after my son's procedure and said to text her if I needed anything else. She also took precautions to protect us and herself from COVID which I appreciated.

As a second-time mom, I honestly wasn't sure if New Mom School was for me... and boy, was I wrong!…read more New Mom School gave me so much confidence as I navigated life with my second baby. More than anything, it gave me a community of amazing women, friendships that I know will last a lifetime, and a safe space to talk openly about everything postpartum, the beautiful moments, and the not so beautiful ones, and everything in between. I'm so grateful I took the chance and joined NMS. It truly made this postpartum experience feel less overwhelming and a lot less lonely. I'll forever cherish the friendships and memories I made here. If you're a new or second-time mom wondering if New Mom School is for you, take it from me it is. You won't regret it!

As a first-time mom, I learned so much and truly feel like this class helped me survive the newborn stage. Every week, I looked forward to attending. It was such a welcoming, supportive, and judgment-free environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and sharing experiences. One of the best parts was meeting other new moms who have become friends and part of my support system. Manager Megan and instructor Daleena are absolutely amazing. They make everyone feel welcome from day one and are incredibly knowledgeable. Their guidance, encouragement, and expertise gave me so much confidence as a new mom. If you're expecting or have a newborn, I 100% recommend Rancho New Moms School. The information, support, and friendships are invaluable. I loved it so much that I've already signed up for the next session, the Infant Sessions, and can't wait to continue learning and growing alongside my baby!

Stacy is Amazing! I first seeked her help to confirm my suspension of baby girl having a lip tie…read more She's was able to do home visits, which is so convenient for me as I'm home alone most days and taking her outside can be troublesome. She was very accommodating with scheduling too! After evaluation, she diagnosed my baby girl with lip tie and possibly a tounge tie. She showed me some exercises I can do daily to help with her oral functions and body tension. Shes suggested some dentists that shes seen procedure success in. She advised that its up to me if I want to do the lip tie procedure, and that oral exercises will need to be done after procedure so getting her use to exercises is important. And sometimes the exercises can significantly improve without needing the procedure. Shes also suggested nipple types I can try to help her latch better. Overall, after 3 sessions, baby girl has minimal clicking, better latch and slightly stronger tounge. Im still on the fence with the procedure, i know sooner the better, but if she continues to improve, I may forgo the procedure. Let's hope her 4 month regression does not undo all our hard work. I will revisit Stacy when baby girl starts solids.

She provides at home or in office appointments and both has worked well so far for my baby. Really love Stacy's flexibility as well and how well she works with my baby!

As a first time mom I was struggling trying to figure out breastfeeding and starting to panic…read morebecause my pediatrician told me that my baby wasn't gaining weight as expected. She wanted me to formula feed asap because I was having trouble with getting a good latch on one side and unable to get a latch at all on the other. I felt so defeated but I didn't want to give up on breast feeding my baby. At first, I went to another LC. It was such a horrible experience. She basically took one look at my baby, then told me she had a lip tie that needed to get released, and that I needed to see a chiropractor because her neck was tight. There was no hands-on working with me on my latch. She really didn't do anything but tell me to continue to use my nipple shield. I was so discouraged after our meeting. I almost believed that what she said was my only option, but my gut feeling told me that she was wrong and I should find another LC. That's when we reached out to Tami from Loving Touch Lactation. She was so kind and reassuring over the phone, answered all my questions and left me feeling confident in her experience to have her come over. It was honestly the best decision we ever made. Let me tell you, she is a miracle worker!!! From our first visit she did a weighted feed and to my amazement she showed me how to latch on BOTH sides properly - She did address that my baby had a minor lip tie, but it did NOT need to be surgically released. Tami then created a game plan for me to become successful in building my supply/feeding to ensure my baby gained weight. With her guidance, I was able to ditch the nipple shields and successfully breastfeed my baby enough to bring her back up to the 98th percentile. We even had Tami come back when my baby turned 6 months for her baby led weaning session! It makes me so emotional to think about how much she has helped me achieve through my breast feeding journey. I literally could not have done it without her and we are so grateful. BEST DECISION EVER!!!

From the very beginning, she made what felt impossible become possible. She made my dream of…read morebreastfeeding come true, and I will be forever grateful for her support. She didn't just support me--she supported our entire family. She encouraged us every step of the way, believed in us even when we doubted ourselves, and gave us the confidence to keep going. Thanks to her expertise, my baby quickly transitioned from pumping and nipple shields to exclusively breastfeeding--no shield needed. She was always readily available whenever we had questions or needed reassurance. Her knowledge in all areas of lactation and infant feeding was exceptional, and she always took the time to explain things in a way that was easy to understand. Beyond her expertise, she is incredibly compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in the success of the families she works with. When it came time for me to return to work, she made that transition feel seamless by helping us create a plan that allowed us to continue our breastfeeding journey with confidence. We truly could not have done this without her. She has made a lasting impact on our family, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and compassionate lactation specialist. She is simply amazing!

That's when I reached out to Linda, and I'm so grateful I did. She took the time to thoroughly assess our baby and quickly identified a lip, tongue, and cheek tie--something we hadn't realized. Linda clearly explained what was going on and guided us through every step, connecting us with a wonderful pediatric dentist for the procedure and an excellent physical therapist for follow-up support. Thanks to Linda's expert advice, encouragement, and reassurance, I was able to continue breastfeeding successfully. I'm proud to say I exclusively breastfed for a full year, and now begins the emotional journey of weaning. I truly could not have done it without her. I will absolutely reach out to her again when the time comes for future children, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to family and friends. She was an essential part of our journey.

No matter what I write, words could never fully encapsulate my experience of having a home birth…read morewith Je'Nelle as my midwife. Je'Nelle has more wisdom in the field of childbirth than anyone (from MDs to other midwives and doulas) that I have ever met. She has access to the best practitioners (nutritionists, chiropractors, at home ultrasounds, etc.) and provides personalized care to each mama. She has incredible intuition and always knows exactly what to do. She has a close relationship with God, and the space around her vibrates at a high level of love. She creates a safe and sacred space. If you are concerned with having a birth away from a hospital, just know that Je'Nelle is a skilled medical professional with a background in nursing and has all the medical tech you and your baby might need with the exception of the epidural and C-section (obviously). I felt very confident that she would know when to send me to a hospital if the occasion called. Also, the birthing pool is underrated in how much it helps with pain management. It makes contractions totally doable! Home births are so awesome! You have your baby and can just go sleep in your bed afterwards. Highly recommend!!!

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Martha as our night nanny with our newborn son. She was truly…read morewonderful and became such an important part of our postpartum experience. From the very beginning, Martha was professional, dependable, and always on time. She was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us wonderful advice about our baby's schedule, feeding, and sleep. Even as a second-time mom, I learned so much from her. What stood out most was how supportive and reassuring she was. On the nights Martha was with our baby, she seamlessly took over and I was able to truly rest. I never once worried about my baby while he was in Martha's care--which says so much, especially during those emotional and exhausting early postpartum weeks. Martha was kind, calm, confident, and incredibly attentive. She gave us not only excellent care for our son, but also the peace of mind and support we needed as new parents all over again. We are so grateful for the six weeks we had with her and would wholeheartedly recommend Martha to any family looking for exceptional newborn and overnight support. If you have the opportunity to work with her, we cannot recommend her highly enough!

Martha was truly one of the best decisions we made as first-time parents. She was with us from our…read morevery first night home through six weeks, providing overnight newborn care and giving my wife and me the peace of mind and rest we desperately needed. I had a C-section, and my recovery would have been much more difficult without Martha's help. She cared for our newborn overnight so my wife could actually sleep between taking care of the baby and supporting me during my recovery. That rest made a huge difference for our journey as parents. We entered this new phase of life more rested, more confident and overall more able to enjoy our newborn bubble. Martha is incredibly warm, professional, knowledgeable, and wonderful to have in your home. As a first-time mom, I had endless questions every night, and being able to ask someone with years of expertise who already knew our baby was invaluable. She provided personalized guidance based on our baby's individual baseline--something you simply can't get from Reddit, Google, or even a doctor who hasn't spent that same time getting to know your baby. She helped answer ours various with feeding, (is that enough, is that too much?) the type of bottles and formula that would be best for her, diaper rash, the umbilical cord, soothing, sleep, and all the little questions that come up with a newborn. She always made us feel more confident and reassured. Her newborn and sleep-shaping set up is another huge benefit. Our baby sleeps pretty gooood (not to brag) and I fully credit Martha for that. Our baby was sleeping 4/5 stretches from like 3 weeks on and has hit 5/6 consistently since. & it's not cry-it out, its gentle routine. She helped us establish routines that worked for our family and gave us structure during the day and night. Having Martha with us from night one was genuinely life-changing. She is funny, sweet, dependable, and truly cares about the families she works with. We will absolutely seek her out for our second baby and cannot recommend her enough to any new parents considering overnight newborn care.

You just have to hope you get a good group of moms that want to continue hanging out and make the extra effort. It's very nice to have some other moms to talk to and meet with that are going through similar experiences. My sister is still friends with her moms group 8 years later! My group was slowly less and less "available" and I've had to develop other mom friends elsewhere. :( 1 star for the breastfeeding clinic. The lactation clinic staff was also very friendly, but from what I and other moms I know experienced, unless breastfeeding goes perfectly for you and your baby they are going to have you jumping through hoops to breastfeed. After several visits seeking help I was finally told that if I wanted to breastfeed I'd have to take my baby to an occupational therapist to learn how to compress her tongue. After exclusively pumping for 2.5 months I finally just started breastfeeding my daughter on my own and after a few tries she figured it out. We now breastfeed just fine and she's in the 95th percentile for her weight, 75th for height, so she obviously has no issue getting enough milk the way she feeds. I would not recommend seeking help here. Instead it would be worth it to hire a lactation consultant in your home or find another place. They were also not very knowledgeable or helpful with my baby's jaundice. The staff was much more paranoid than my babies pediatrician and made me feel like a bad first time parent because things weren't going as THEY thought it should be. The BEST decision I made was to give up on the clinic and use Dr Google along with my own determination to make breastfeeding work. It was SOOOOO much easier once we started breastfeeding exclusively and I wish I'd followed my instincts from day 1 instead of seeking out the "help" here.
