Are you pregnant and hoping to learn more about lactation?
Currently breastfeeding but having some issues?
Returning to work and just wanting to know how to make this whole breastfeeding and pumping thing work?
Is your baby refusing to take the bottle and it’s stressing you out?
Are you an employer who wants to abide by the PUMP Act but unsure how to do so?
Excellent! I can help with that!
My name is Lisa Sheer and I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Educator of Infant Massage (CEIM), certified in TummyTime! Method, and have completed training in Guiding Bottle Breakthroughs for bottle refusal.
But that’s not my only identity. I am a mom, partner, friend, daughter, baker, hiker, gardener, hammock hanger, dog mom, plant mom, lover of music and movies, nature and travel … but the thing that drove me to start this business was my passion for all things breastfeeding.
I have always said that it is not my job to convince anyone to breastfeed or to breastfeed for a certain period of time, but to provide information for informed decisions. It breaks my heart to hear parents say, “I wish someone would’ve told me that!”. Non-judgmental education and support where we discuss all options and what to expect, is important to me. I like to chat with my clients, to get to know you a bit, answer any questions, and ultimately support you in your personal goals.
My mission is to create a positive breastfeeding culture through education, advocacy, and support and to help families reach their personal breastfeeding goals.
I provide prenatal breastfeeding education, lactation consultations, bottlefeeding/refusal consults, and return to work consultations in your home or virtually.
What to expect
During a consult, I can:
- Observe breastfeeding
- Assess for good latch
- Perform infant oral assessments
- Provide pre/post feeding weights
- Educate on pumping and measure for proper flange size
- Evaluate common and not-so-common lactation issues
- Make recommendations and referrals
- Support your decisions
- …and most importantly, listen.
In the past year, I have been empowering families through Infant Massage and TummyTime! Method classes taught in one-on-one sessions and group classes!
