FAQs

What is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)?

IBCLC is the highest credential level for providers who specialize in breastfeeding. 

IBCLCs are comprehensive and thoroughly trained providers who can address all lactation issues, from the very simple to the very complex.  IBCLCs offer evidence-based guidance to help you meet your breastfeeding goals while supporting all forms of feeding. 

How do I know I need to reach out?

When in doubt, just reach out!

If you are in pain, if nursing or pumping is uncomfortable, if your baby is not gaining appropriately, or if you plan on weaning and just need some guidance, I’m here to help!

Do you participate with insurance?

I am currently an out-of-network provider for all insurances. This means that you pay for the cost of your visit upfront, I provide you a superbill, and then you submit a claim for reimbursement through your insurance. I cannot guarantee any reimbursement from your insurance.

Is there a Cancellation Policy?

Yes! Check it out here!

Please take the time to read it over carefully!

What will I need for a successful virtual visit?

I use GSuite (Google’s professional service), including Google Forms and Google Meet.

You will need an internet connection, and a phone/tablet/computer. It’s best if you have a helper with you during your visit who can hold the camera for you, and make it easier to see all the angles needed to assess you and your baby.

Is your practice HIPAA compliant?

Yes! I have taken every possible measure to ensure your Protected Health Information (PHI) is secure! Not sure what HIPAA is? Find out more here.

Do you offer any discounts?

Yes!!! I am proud to offer a 10% military, first responder, healthcare worker, and teacher discount! When you book your appointment, please indicate your affiliation!

Yes! In fact, I’ve created a page with a curated list of resources that may be helpful for you. Visit my resources page here.
