What parents are saying…

My newborn was a little tongue/lip tied so I was having issues breastfeeding him. I was in pain and my baby was frustrated. I was recommended to come here by the pediatrician and they were truly amazing. I was about to give up on breastfeeding but Sarah and her team were really able to guide me in the right direction. My baby is 2 months now and I have been able to breastfeed him pain free! - Jenny A.
