When feeding your baby happens not only at the breast…
Whether you are looking for support with introducing alternative feeding methods, returning to work, or your baby is having difficulties with taking the bottle or maybe rejecting the bottle, support is available for you!
Introducing the Bottle
Looking to introduce the bottle and wondering…
When should I start? How do I offer the bottle? Is there a right type of bottle or nipple? What about nipple flow — does it increase over time? How much milk does my baby need? How do I store and prepare milk? How long should feedings last? Is my baby eating too much or taking in air? And what about my milk supply — do I need to start pumping?
It’s completely normal to have all these questions (and more). But don’t worry — I’m here to walk you through every step. I’ll guide you on introducing the bottle, what to expect, and how to navigate infant feeding and your milk supply with confidence.

Bottle Refusal
When offering the bottle doesn’t go as smoothly…
Bottle refusal can be very stressful for the entire family. Sometimes, babies don’t take the bottle as well as they normally would, even when they’re hungry or showing feeding cues. There are many factors that could be impacting your and your baby’s efforts to make bottle feeding a success.
During our consult, I’ll conduct a thorough assessment to identify the root cause and guide you on how to help your little one take the bottle.

Bottle Aversion
If your baby is struggling with bottle aversion! I am sending the biggest hug!
But I got you. I know how distressing it can be when your baby will not take the bottle, and they cry and fuss the moment it is even introduced. This can be a very emotional hurdle, but there is a reason why they won’t can’t take the bottle. Together, we can work to help your baby learn that bottle feeding is safe and that they’ll be supported throughout the process.

You’re not alone.
How Laura Cares
I have worked with Laura over the past few months and would absolutely recommend her to anyone. She is kind and caring and immediately put me at ease – especially because she comes to your home (which is incredibly helpful when you have a young baby!). She explains things in a way that is easy to understand and has helped me navigate a multitude of things – tongue tie release, problems with nursing, food allergies, bottle refusal, and even starting solids. You can tell that she cares about what she does & the people she works with. 10/10!!
