Lactation Support

Confidence in Every Feed

Feeding your baby is more than nutrition, it’s connection, comfort, and foundation for lifelong health. At Profound Birth, we provide compassionate, evidence-based lactation support designed to help you and your baby thrive together. Whether you’re navigating your first latch, overcoming challenges, or seeking guidance as your baby grows, you don’t have to do it alone.

  • Pumping and bottle-feeding support

  • Tongue and lip tie concerns

  • Transitioning back to work while breastfeeding

Lactation Care Plans:

Our care plans provide families with extended, personalized support through every stage of feeding.

This continuity of care helps address concerns early, prevents small challenges from becoming larger obstacles, and builds a strong foundation for long-term feeding success aligned with your goals.
