She took the time to listen to my concerns and provided practical, clear advice that helped me build confidence and overcome the challenges I was facing with breastfeeding. Her calm and reassuring approach made all the difference, and I truly believe that without her expertise, I wouldn't have been able to succeed. I was able to breastfeed for 18 months with my first born and over 24 months with my second. She even helped me through the weaning process. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of lactation support -- she's a true professional and a lifesaver!

I've been meeting with Trine since my first prenatal visit with my son just over 4 years ago! She…read moremade me feel extremely comfortable from that very first visit and shared so much of her wisdom with me in our first 90 minute session. I'm so glad I met with her before baby's arrival so that I knew what to expect when breastfeeding those first couple of days after his birth. Since then, Trine has continued to support me during the pregnancy and birth of my second and third children. I love how she makes herself available to you through the app and I truly do learn something new from her with each and every visit. She's a lactation consultant who is a lifelong learner so she is always adding new skills that help her continue to grow and support so many families with all things babies and boobs! Highly recommend.

Debbie was amazing and helped my wife nurse our newborn daughter…read more Our newborn was having latch issues and causing my wife to get hurt. Debbie pointed out that the position and suck of baby were a bit strong and showed us how to correct it and gave plenty of tips and advice to make sure baby does not hurt. She also pointed out that the cup size for the pump we were using was too small and also contributing to paint. She is full of tips and little words to remember particular tips. This blows the lactation support received at hospital out of the water. We will use and recommend her again !

Seeing Debbie for a second opinion was such a great next step. Debbie was kind, patient, and thorough in the time she spent with me - an hour and a half. She continued to follow up daily with check in's and phone calls, that never felt rushed. She calmed me from a state of new-mom doom and gloom failure, to someone with real hope and control of the situation. Debbie is not a pusher of one specific way. She believes in all routes to provide nutrition for your child. She doesn't make you feel bad for needing to supplement with formula. I've sincerely loved my time spent with Debbie. I would highly recommend her.

My life and the life of my child was put at risk choosing this place. At 38/39 weeks an ultrasound…read morecaught an issue. The diagnosis was something that the midwives said they could handle. However the ultrasound doctor strongly advised to give birth at a hospital. At the time we didn't understand why or the urge to sway us away from the birthing center. When we told the midwive she immediately tried getting rid of me as a patient. I had to call around different doctor offices trying to be seen at 39 weeks which was impossible to get an appointment. My husband finally bugged the midwife enough for her to tell me to "go to a hospital, lie about having contractions" that she would make a call and have some random doctor that I've never met claim me as his patient for me to be admitted. We were left with no doctor, no help, no answers, told to lie to medical staff. It was completely stressful. No medical facility should ever treat someone like this ! Especially someone who is pregnant . It turns out that OUR midwive was responsible for the death of a baby during labor. 3 months prior to my delivery. Along with a list of previous medical misconduct. In the end we lucked out with a healthy baby, but literally shame on all of you. You all knew what was going on and you guys could have stepped in and provided the necessary care. https://mediaassets.abc15.com/html/embeds/Midwives%20database/Karin%20Braun.pdf KARIN BRAUN I HOPE YOU NEVER GET YOUR LICENSE BACK!!

After having a very discouraging start with breast feeding a friend recommended Doris Christiansen…read moreto me. My daughter was born at 36 wks and 4 days and because she was "late preterm" the lactation nurse at Scottsdale Osborn had all kinds of ignorant and discouraging things to say about us breast feeding. (One particular comment I will never forget. She said my baby's "mouth was too small" since she was born so early and I would probably have to bottle feed for awhile. I could go on for days). Doris came to my home and got right to business. She wasn't cold and pushy, but calm and to the point. It was just what I needed when I my nerves were high. I'll never forget what Doris said to me either, "There's nothing wrong with this baby except she's confused." (Suck? Why suck on a breast when life is so easy with the fast flow nipples the hospital kindly provided?). She got us breast feeding in about 30 minutes. I will forever be grateful for the skills and knowledge Doris provided and for passing those things on to us. Well worth the fee we paid!!!

There are not enough amazing things I can say about Michaela. I was stressing out about my little…read moreman due to him not gaining weight and I just felt like there was something not right. Being a first time mom, I felt unsure about what is normal and what is not. I thought maybe it was me and that I was not producing so I sought out an LC and found Michaela. Immediately she could tell that he had a tongue and lip tie. She was efficient in her evaluations and practices. More than anything she showed so much care. She would ask for follow up between visits and gave advice and reassurance when I reached out. She worked with me when I had certain issues that would pop up because she wanted to make sure my little man was ok and gaining weight. It was definitely bitter sweet the last visit we had and she said my son was doing great and didn't need to come back. I would recommend her to anyone having lactation concerns.

Cannot even express how relieved I feel after a visit from Michaela today! I called her late…read moreyesterday and she was able to see me this AM! She is a wealth of knowledge and takes the time to watch, listen and teach! I had SO many questions I didn't even know I had!! I have been struggling with high supply and a baby who is choking, crying, pulling off the boob and getting doused with milk. He also had tung tie at birth. We discussed positioning and not only did my baby feed for a good long while instead of usual short bursts but he was VERY happy and satisfied afterwards! No tummy aches, just happy coos. We may have also discovered the reason for his snoring before his ENT appointment on the 19th! We will see if it's confirmed at that appointment. I am excited to apply the things I learned today. Today I learned that Lactation Consultants are a GODSEND.

I have an appointment with a different consultant next week that will visit our home. Also - Erin did not say the only way to latch was to get a tongue tie procedure like others. While we are open to getting the procedure, she wasn't so pushy about it and gave us lots of supplemental information. Thank you, Erin!
