"Alisia gave me the reassurance I needed!!! I will 100% be recommending her to all of my friends. I assumed breastfeeding would just naturally be the easist thing in the world. When it wasn't what I expected, I felt so lost. I'm so glad I reached out to Alisia. I'm 4 months postpartum and still able to exclusively breastfeed!"

Client Love

"I cannot say enough about Alisia's work! I had planned to breastfeed, but an emergency birth put a wrench in my plans. I was not able to immediately do so as I had planned and I became unsure about whether or not I would be able to. Alisia not only taught me proper breastfeeding technique, she gave me the confidence I needed. She's thoughtful, kind, patient, and knowledgable. After our appointment, she followed up with a thorough, detailed plan. Now, my baby is healthy and still exclusively breastfeeding! I cannot recommend Alisia enough! She is such a needed resource."

Client Love

"Breastfeeding as a first time mom was so overwhelming. I had been in pain for almost 10 weeks when a friend recommended Alisia. I think I messaged her on a Friday, and she responded almost immediately. I explained to her my situation, that I was still in so much pain, and she made me feel like a priority. Alisia came to my house the next morning, AFTER working night shift at the hospital. She was such a blessing to me and my family. She listened and made me feel so validated after being told time and time again that nothing was wrong. We were able to address the issues, and breastfeeding finally clicked. Shortly after meeting Alisia my family had to relocate for my husband job, but we still kept in touch and she was so helpful with new questions that arose. I will forever appreciate Alisia and the care/support she gave to us during such a tough time."

"I faced many challenges when breast-feeding my first child. I was determined to not face those same challenges with my second and be more educated on breastfeeding. I contacted nourish and nurture a few weeks postpartum. She was very quick to respond and schedule an appointment with me. I was very impressed with the whole appointment and I gained so much confidence! I truly believe the confidence and education I gained during my appointment helped me continue to breast-feed to my goal of one full year."

Client Love

"Working with Alisia as a first-time mom was such a positive experience. She was easy to talk to, patient, and very knowledgeable about the issues I was facing. She answered my questions clearly, responded quickly, and offered a helpful hands-on approach that made a real difference in those early postpartum days. I’m still using the tips she taught me. My daughter is now eight months old and nursing full-time successfully. I highly recommend Alisia to any new mom looking for supportive, practical guidance."

Client Love

"Alisia was truly a gem! She led with knowledge and great energy when I was struggling! When the session was over, I felt informed, empowered, and taken care of. Thank you, Alisia!!!"

"Alisia is incredibly kind! Always joyful and a light in my home! I would not be breastfeeding my son without her. He had spent time in the nicu and when we weren’t home was not breastfeeding at all. Now he is two months old and exclusively breastfeeding! She is so kind and patient and responsive to any questions that I have. I highly recommend seeing her pre birth and after. One of the best parts is that she comes to you and you don’t have to leave your home in the hard weeks after birth."

"I cannot recommend Alisia enough! She was incredibly responsive and was able to see me and my baby on very short notice. During our visit, she was able to provide guidance and help work through some of the roadblocks I was encountering while nursing. I was ready to throw in the towel before our first visit, but she really helped turn things around for us and I was able to continue nursing my baby. Even after our visit, Alisia checked in with us many times and I truly felt supported. Alisia is caring, knowledgeable, and top notch!"

"I cannot say enough amazing things about my lactation specialist, Alisia. From day one, she has been incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely caring. Navigating breastfeeding and pumping was overwhelming at first, but Alisia made the entire experience so much more manageable and empowering. She took the time to understand my unique feeding goals and challenges and offered thoughtful, personalized advice every step of the way. Whether I had questions about latching, pumping schedules, or combo feeding, she always had the perfect solution and delivered it with patience and encouragement..."

"Alisia was incredible. She was so patient and helpful even when our 2 week old didn’t cooperate with the time we had set for her to be awake- she never made us feel like we were inconveniencing her or being a burden. We are super thankful for her."
