Personalized lactation support for every feeding journey
At Grateful Lactation Services, we believe feeding support should feel compassionate, empowering, and judgment-free. Every parent and baby pair is unique, and your care should reflect that.
Led by Shari, an experienced IBCLC with decades of experience supporting mothers and babies, our practice combines clinical expertise with warm, individualized care. With a background in hospital care, postpartum support, and social work, we understand that feeding challenges are often deeply connected to physical recovery, emotional well-being, family dynamics, and confidence as a new parent.
We support families through every stage of feeding, including:
Breastfeeding support
Pumping and flange fitting
Bottle feeding and bottle refusal
Prenatal education
Tongue tie support
Return-to-work planning
Low milk supply concerns
Painful latch and nipple pain
Mastitis and clogged ducts
Weaning support

Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, you deserve experienced support that helps you feel informed, confident, and cared for.
