Emma, mom of 2

"When I was pregnant with my first, I didn't know where to start with breastfeeding. I wanted to know EVERYTHING but Google was information overload and not helpful. Then I found Allison's course. It was just what I needed! The course covered the basics and had lots of information, but it was focused in one spot so I didn't have to search a bunch of different sources. I took the course at my own pace and referred back to it again and again! The most important thing to me was feeling like I could trust Allison as a lactation expert, and also a fellow mom. Because of Allison's help, I've felt successful in breastfeeding both of my babies!"

"I was SO unprepared when I decided I wanted to breastfeed my daughter. I came from a formula-feeding family and had no one to get that anecdotal experience from. I took some bad advice from someone who shouldn’t be a lactation counselor that ultimately discouraged me and left me feeling less than. I’ve found so much help and empowerment in your videos and now I know how to be prepared next time around whenever I have another baby. Thank you SO much, Allison! ❤️"

Hi. I'm a Allison.

Even as a licensed nurse, I was still hesitant to admit my breastfeeding goals out loud because I wasn't confident I could meet them. And adding pumping into the mix when I went back to work? I totally winged it...

Fast forward 10 years, I have created many resources to help YOU feel more confident getting started breastfeeding, choosing and figuring out your pump, and the best way to mix the two. Everyone has different needs, situations, and goals, and I want to help you meet yours.
