BE WITH BABY

FEEDING SUPPORT FOR YOU

  • "With Karla, I immediately felt safe and understood."

  • "Karla supported my feeding journey with my son both virtually and in person. Her genuine kindness, encouragement and non judgmental attitude really made me feel calm and lessened my anxiety about breastfeeding/pumping/bottle feeding."

  • "She really is a part of my “village” and I will be forever grateful to her for helping me fulfill this dream with my final baby."

  • "My initial reason for getting in touch with Karla was to get advice on a breast pump after having twins but I ended up with so much more! Karla is incredible - not only did she help me figure out the best pump for my situation, but she also helped set me up with success in tandem feeding my newborn twins which was not something I was doing on my own and now I am super confident about getting them breastfeeding at the same time. You can tell she loves what she does and cares so much!"

  • "Karla taught us so much valuable information that has truly helped set a strong foundation for our son’s development."

  • "Breastfeeding is such a multi-faceted and client-specific journey. Karla has truly made my breastfeeding journey a success and babe’s development is thriving because of it! I will be recommending all new mamas and parents!!"
