BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT
Breastfeeding is more than just a way to nourish your baby; it’s an intimate dance of connection and bonding, of instinct and learned behavior, of love and dedication. It offers your baby a comprehensive nutritional package for optimal growth and health. And while it's a beautiful journey, like any adventure, it comes with its challenges and hurdles.
However, remember: Every breastfeeding journey is unique, and taking it one day at a time often opens the way for a more fulfilling breastfeeding experience. And in those moments when the path seems winding or challenging, know that you have a guide to support and walk alongside you.
Your breastfeeding journey is deeply personal, and every decision you make is yours alone. As your counselor, I provide you with the information and insights, but the choice always rests with you. I believe that informed choices lead to empowering experiences. Every mother knows deep down what’s best for her baby; my job is simply to help you uncover and trust that intuition.
How I support you?
As a Certified Lactation Counselor, my role is to provide you with knowledge, encouragement, and techniques to make your breastfeeding journey smoother. I approach each session with:
֍ Personalized Consultation: Our 90-minute session is all about YOU. Through a series of questions, I aim to understand your unique breastfeeding journey, pinpoint areas of improvement, and offer solutions to specific challenges.
֍ Mindfulness Techniques: In times of stress or uncertainty, mindfulness can anchor us back to the present moment. It can help you tune in to your body's cues and your baby’s needs, fostering a serene environment conducive to breastfeeding.
֍Basic Rebozo Massage: This traditional technique aids relaxation, eases discomfort, and can greatly enhance the breastfeeding experience by alleviating physical tension.
֍ Extended Support: Breastfeeding is an ongoing process, and questions might arise days after our session. Rest assured, I'm here for you. With every consultation, you gain access to 2 weeks of chat/mail support. Whether you have a sudden concern, need a quick tip, or just want reassurance, I'm just a message away.
Lili is the lactation consultant of dreams. I had a difficult time with breastfeeding, and Lili not only helped with teaching me the physical techniques—she also supported me in making decisions that were the best for me. She made it clear that there was no “right away” to approaching bf vs formula vs mixed feeding. It’s about personal choice, and we talked through each of the options until I found a solution that felt right. My life changed a lot after working with Lili and I can’t recommend her services highly enough.
