I know the importance of being able to access help and support quickly.

Are you struggling with…

  • Knowing if your baby is getting enough?

  • Engorgement, plugged ducts, or mastitis?

  • Latching and positioning?

  • Oral restrictions?

  • Soreness or pain with feedings?

  • Milk supply challenges?

What are past clients saying?

  • "Colleen has been a huge part of my breastfeeding journey. She helped me right from the start and has been an amazing resource ever since. Breastfeeding this time around wasn’t as easy as I had hoped but Colleen was able to identify all of our problems and fix them. She is so supportive and knowledgeable, which is how we ended up being so successful with breastfeeding. I had set a goal and she is the reason the baby and I have now exceeded that goal and are still going strong!"

  • “Colleen is a godsend! I had my baby in late December and Colleen came over during such a stressful time. I was a ball of anxiety and postpartum hormones and she was full of warmth, kindness and brought calm energy and guidance. She gave me lots of tips on nursing that I’m still using today! Colleen regularly checked in after our visit and I always felt listened to when sending her frantic emails in the middle of the night :) During those first few weeks with a newborn, I wish she could’ve come over every day! Can’t recommend the Lactation Consultants of South Shore enough!”

  • “Colleen was the best! She was very friendly and made me feel comfortable right from the start. She truly listened to me when I talked about the challenges of having a newborn and breastfeeding. She gave me the much needed confidence to continue breastfeeding with her positive, reassuring attitude. She followed up after every visit and was very responsive if I had any concerns after her visit.”

    Samantha W.

  • “I reached out to Colleen because my 6-week-old baby was having trouble with her latch and was not gaining weight as quickly as expected. Colleen came to our house for a consultation and was so warm and encouraging. Over the course of two hours she observed my baby's latch and offered lots of guidance and advice. Colleen has stayed in touch in the two weeks since the consultation to answer questions and make sure we are on a good path forward. I'm so grateful for her thoughtfulness and expertise and would highly recommend her to others.”

    Caroline S.

  • "Colleen was amazing! As my husband would say she is worth her weight in gold! She helped me when I was struggling and gave me the support and confidence I needed to continue with breastfeeding. I thought latching was never going to happen and she gave me the skills and tools I needed to successfully breastfeed. I highly recommend to anyone who needs help with breastfeeding. It was so nice having her come into my home and my environment."

    Marina D.

  • "Highly recommend that anyone having issues breastfeeding reach out to Colleen. She is a life safer! My 9 week old had been struggling latching and was getting very upset when nursing. I was getting very discouraged and was ready to give up breastfeeding. She immediately could tell the main issue and gave me advice on how to help. By the next feeding my daughter wasn’t crying and was feeding much better. Now a few weeks later and my feedings couldn’t be going better and my daughter is the happiest little girl! I am so happy I reached out to Colleen. I felt so comfortable with her and I could not recommend her enough."

    Kaylie J.

  • "Colleen came to our home to assist with my newborn's latch issues. I had suspected a tongue/lip tie but wasn't sure. Colleen was able to identify the ties, provide a dentist recommendation, and helped me with nursing holds that mitigated my strong let-down. She was super professionaland was super kind, supportive, and reassuring so that I felt confident in figuring out this nursing thing. I'm a second time mom and breastfeeding is still a challenge but Colleen was great in making it seem less daunting and more doable! She has also followed up regularly afterwards which has been great. It's so nice to feel like somebody is in your corner!"
