I am so thankful for the help Hilary gave me with my concerns with breastfeeding my second baby. I had no issues with breastfeeding our first, but my second time around was not so easy. Hilary's numerous years of experience as a neonatal nurse and knowledge of lactation and baby care is exceptional and I'll be forever grateful to her. She also sweetly included my son in baby care and explored different ways with him on how he can be helpful. She helped facilitate a sweet sibling bond and now my son is so proud of his new role as a big brother and loves being my helper in taking care of his baby sister.

Hilary has helped me introduce and make purees with all three of my children. Initially, I was quite timid and didn't even know where to begin. She helped with all aspects of initiating feedings and making their purees- from the importance of hygiene and correct storage, to which fruits and vegetables to introduce first as well as the developmental signs and safety of feeding my baby. So appreciative of being able to give the very best, organic, homemade first foods to my babies.

She is excellent at troubleshooting. Her thorough knowledge will provide you with tools, techniques and information that makes her an invaluable resource for both mother and baby.

Hilary recently helped me with my lactation needs. I brought my baby home from NICU and he was having a lot of trouble latching and maintaining his weight. Hilary is incredibly patient, gentle, and knowledgeable. She is an avid listener and respects my feeding goals and plans. Her calm demeanor put me at ease and helped my son breastfeed effectively and now he is a great eater, gaining weight and thriving. So grateful for Hilary's help and expertise. I highly recommend her.... especially with babies who are discharged from NICUs with more complicated breastfeeding challenges and needs.

We had Hilary for a Lactation consult as well as a sibling consult. She immediately knew how to help with my concerns and how to help latch my baby more effectively. I am a second-time mom but I learned so much regarding newborn care as well (that perhaps I had forgotten or never learned the first time around!). She also very sweetly involved my firstborn (a 4-year-old) in ways that he can feel helpful and empowered as an older brother. She brought over a "big sibling helper kit" that he just loves playing with and has adjusted more easily to his new role as a big brother since Hilary came over to help us. Forever grateful.

My baby and I have been through a lot. Hilary welcomed me and my baby in her home. I know breastfeeding is best for my baby but I also can't afford formula. She helped me feed my baby and with newborn things. I'm hoping to breastfeed my baby till he's over one year old. Thanks, Hilary for helping me.

Hilary recently led a newborn and breastfeeding class for young new moms. She interacted with our moms with such patience, empathy and a wealth of knowledge. She gently but very informatively spoke about the benefits of breastfeeding and shared techniques to make it successful for our moms (some still finishing highschool). She is a gift to moms and babies and shares such imperative information in ways that new moms can retain and relate to. She empowers as well as builds their confidence in caring for their babies. Thank you Hilary for generously giving your time, it was so appreciated.

Hilary was essential to us establishing exclusive breastfeeding. Leaving the hospital and getting set up breastfeeding at home was daunting. Hilary's visits set us up for success, ensuring we had a good latch, ergonomic position, and a path weaning off the nipple shield and supplementary feedings. More importantly, Hilary offered pragmatic advice and encouragement to keep us motivated during the sometimes-difficult process. I would highly recommend her knowledgeable support to other new parents.
