Infant Feeding & Early Care Education
Comprehensive Lactation Services for New Mothers
At Advanced Therapy Solutions, we understand that breastfeeding can be challenging for many new mothers. That’s why our lactation services go beyond basic support to offer comprehensive care throughout your breastfeeding journey. Our Certified Lactation Counselors and Infant Feeding Support Team provide personalized consultations to address common issues like latch difficulties, low milk supply, and nipple pain. We also offer prenatal breastfeeding classes to help you prepare before your baby arrives.
Our lactation services are designed to work in tandem with our other infant feeding support programs. If breastfeeding challenges persist, our team can seamlessly transition you to our feeding therapy services, ensuring continuity of care. We also collaborate closely with local pediatricians and OB-GYNs to provide holistic support for both mother and baby. Whether you’re a first-time mom or experienced but facing new challenges, our lactation services are here to help you achieve your breastfeeding goals and foster a positive feeding experience for you and your infant.
