Hey mama, before we go any further, I want to bust a few feeding myths.
You've been told feeding your baby is a natural, intuitive thing that'll just click as soon as they're born. And instinct is real. But feeding is also a technical skill, one that takes real education and practice to actually do well.
I’M DEDICATED TO HELPING MAMAS UNDERSTAND THAT THE SKILLS IT TAKES TO BREASTFEED DON’T COME NATURALLY TO MOST WOMEN — AND THEY MAY NOT FOR YOU EITHER.
But that's okay. With the right support, you can move through the anxiety, work past the pain, and let go of the guilt and comparison that come with feeding a baby your own way.
Together, we'll walk through your feeding journey, giving you the skills and confidence to feed your baby in whatever way is right for your family, so they can grow up healthy and happy.
xo, Britt
"I don't know that I'd still be breastfeeding now, if it hadn't been for her."
Brittany is so caring and wonderful at what she does. I struggled alone on my breastfeeding journey with my first child, and was so thrilled to find an LC who comes to your home this second go-round. I got so much out of the prenatal visit with Britt — I was able to harvest colostrum ahead of time, and address other concerns I had. Postpartum, Britt has been a life saver. She got me through mastitis and very painful feedings that first week. I don't know that I'd still be breastfeeding now with my 3 month old, if it hadn't been for her. (And I breastfed my first child for 2.5 years!) There's always more to learn, and I'm so glad I have a support system in place for this journey. Britt also weighs baby before and after a feed — so you know how much milk your baby is getting — how amazing is that?! She's given me tips and tricks for pumping and self-care that I never would have thought of. She is a genuine person who truly cares about her clients and I have already recommended her to multiple friends!

Hi, I'm Britt
Fifteen years as a nurse — twelve of them at the bedside in Mother-Baby and NICU care, many of those years also as an IBCLC — taught me that a hospital stay is over in days, but what a family needs is only just getting started.
Feeding is where I've always felt the pull hardest. It's the first relationship your baby will ever build — something you'll be doing for more than half your waking hours, every single day. Get it right, and it can carry your whole postpartum experience. Get stuck in it, and it can break the same. I've spent my career standing right in the middle of that, and somewhere along the way, I fell for it — watching that bond take shape right in front of me never gets old.
That's what Feeding With Britt is built on: everything I learned in Mother-Baby and NICU care, paired with my IBCLC training, so every family gets the most comprehensive standard of care I know how to give. I care about a mother's own recovery as much as her baby's feeding — and instead of being handed off between providers, you stay with me through the whole transition. It's exactly why I left the bedside.
Baby gear wears out. The support you invest in now never does.
"I'm so happy to say that my daughter and I are still successfully nursing at 8 months, and I truly attribute so much of that success to Brittany's support and expertise."

— Mary H.
79% of mothers reported nipple pain before they even left the hospital.
That kind of pain isn't something you're supposed to push through alone, and it's often the first thing that pushes a mom toward a feeding routine she never actually wanted. Getting help early means a more comfortable, confident feeding experience, one that actually supports your baby's health and growth, instead of one you settled for out of exhaustion.
THE BEST TIME TO PREPARE IS BEFORE IT STARTS HURTING. THAT’S WHAT I’M HERE FOR.
She was told to keep trying — for a month.
One mother I worked with spent a month being told the same thing by her OB and her lactation consultant: keep trying, it'll come. What was actually happening was Insufficient Glandular Tissue (IGT) — a physical limit on her milk supply. No one had caught it until I looked closely enough to see the whole clinical picture, not just the latch. Once we knew, we stopped chasing a number that wasn't coming and built a plan around what her body could actually do.
That's the difference between being told to try harder — and being told what's true.

"She helped me feel confident and prepared going into the hospital."
"I saw Brittany for a prenatal lactation visit before my baby was born, and I'm so glad I did. She helped me feel confident and prepared going into the hospital, and I knew exactly what to do right after delivery... Now, 11 weeks after birth, we are finally full-time breastfeeding. I truly don't think we would've made it here without Brittany's knowledge, encouragement, and compassionate care."

"She immediately put me at ease with a clear plan."
"After having a 36-week preemie and being told she'd only be able to feed with a nipple shield... I was overwhelmed and nervous about my breastfeeding journey. Brittany made time in her schedule to see us the day after we got home from the hospital and immediately put me at ease with a clear plan. A few weeks later, my daughter was successfully nursing without a shield!"
