What Our Breastfeeding Support Services Include
Supporting you during your breastfeeding journey means understanding your needs and guiding you every step of the way. Our services include:
● Assistance with Breastfeeding Positions: Learn how to find the best breastfeeding positions that suit your body and your baby’s needs—whether it’s the cradle hold, football hold, or side-lying position. We’ll work with you to ensure both comfort and effective latching.
● Hands-On Latch Support: One of the most common challenges new parents face is getting a proper latch. Our doulas offer in-person support and instruction to help you achieve a secure, pain-free latch that supports healthy feeding.
● Feeding Cues and Baby Behavior: Not sure if your baby is hungry, sleepy, or just needs to be soothed? We help you recognize baby feeding cues and understand newborn behaviors, so you can feel more confident with each feeding session.
● Breastfeeding Tips and Troubleshooting: From increasing milk supply to dealing with nipple pain or engorgement, our doulas provide practical breastfeeding tips and compassionate problem-solving to help you through challenges.
● Guidance with Pumping and Bottle Introduction: Whether you plan to return to work or share feeding responsibilities, we offer education on pumping schedules, storage guidelines, and introducing bottles while maintaining your breastfeeding relationship.

Why Breastfeeding Support Matters
Because Every Parent Deserves a Strong Start
While breastfeeding is often described as instinctual, it is also a learned skill—for both mother and baby. The early weeks can be filled with questions, physical discomfort, and emotional ups and downs. That’s where we come in.
When you have the right support, you are more likely to:
● Build confidence in your ability to feed your baby
● Develop a strong emotional bond through feeding
● Avoid common problems like mastitis, blocked ducts, and latching pain
● Make informed decisions about your feeding plan
● Continue breastfeeding for as long as you choose

Our breastfeeding support services in New Jersey are ideal for:
● First-time moms unsure where to start
