I am the owner of The Boobtik providing skilled lactation care to expectant and new families specializing with the first latch and the early weeks of breastfeeding and/or exclusively pumping. When new honeys need help ASAP, virtual or in person consults can keep a honey from giving up on their goal prematurely. I have TOTs specialty training to conduct a feeding assessment. New parents need ongoing non-judgemental AND up to date evidence based support to guide you thorugh the initiation of breastfeeding. information. I specialize in immediate perinatal support of birth to breastfeeding where the continuity of lactation care often is lacking or inadequate. I currently do not accept insurance and all of my services are self pay. I do offer sliding scale fees for Medicaid recipients. Please inquire here.
