Getting support should be simple. Here's what to expect from your first contact to your first visit.
Choose a service, pick a time that suits you, and book online through Acuity Scheduling. You'll receive a confirmation email and your intake forms automatically.
I'll send you a short intake form before your visit so I can make the most of our time together and prepare for your specific situation.
I'll arrive at your home ready to support, educate, and encourage. Follow-up support is available by phone and email.

She came to our home the day after we got back from the hospital. I was exhausted and overwhelmed, and she was so calm and patient. By the time she left I actually felt like I could do this.
The prenatal class was incredible. My partner came too and it made such a difference. We felt genuinely prepared. No judgment, just good information and real support.
I was struggling with pumping at work and she came out, assessed my flange sizing, and everything changed. I wish I'd called sooner. Genuinely changed my experience.
Booking is easy and I come to you. Let's make your feeding journey one you feel confident and cared for in.
About me
I'm a Certified Lactation Support Provider (CLSP) credentialed through GOLD Lactation Academy, and I'm passionate about supporting families through one of the most tender and sometimes challenging chapters of their lives.
I come to you — in your home, in your space, on your terms. I believe that good lactation support should feel like a knowledgeable friend sitting beside you on the couch, not a clinical appointment that adds more stress to an already full plate.
I work with all kinds of families. Whether you're a first-time parent anxious to get it right, someone who had a hard time last time and wants more support, or a parent returning to work and trying to figure out pumping — I'm here for you, without judgment, always.
Training & credentials
As a CLSP, I am a non-clinical lactation education and counseling professional. I work collaboratively with healthcare providers and IBCLCs to ensure every family gets the right level of care.
Credentialed through GOLD Lactation Academy. Completed comprehensive didactic lactation training and competency examination.
Non-clinical education and counseling. I provide evidence-based lactation support, classes, and referrals — not clinical assessment or medical advice.
I adhere to the WHO International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes in all of my practice and product offerings.
Fully insured including professional liability, general liability, and product liability coverage for all in-home and class services.
Current BLS certification — so you can feel confident knowing that safety is always a priority during every in-home visit and group class.
Dedicated continuing education in breast pump fitting and flange sizing, ensuring up-to-date, evidence-based guidance for every pumping client.
How I work
Your feeding choice is yours, and it will be met with complete support — always.
I welcome all families — all genders, all family structures, all backgrounds. I use the language you prefer.
Everything I share is grounded in current, peer-reviewed lactation research and established clinical guidelines.
Your home is the best place to learn and practice. I come to you so you can be comfortable and supported.
I bring a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive approach to every interaction, honoring your whole story.
I'd love to support your family. Book a visit or reach out with any questions — there's no such thing as too many questions.
What I offer
Choose a support package designed around your journey, or book individual services à la carte. All visits take place in your home — I bring everything we need.
Support packages
Every family is different. These packages are designed to give you the right level of support — whether you're preparing before baby arrives, navigating the early weeks, or both.
Extras & à la carte
Educational guidance on flange sizing, fit assessment, and pump part recommendations — so pumping is comfortable and effective.
One focused 1-hour in-home visit for latch, positioning, supply questions, or whatever you need most right now.
The full 2-hour in-home prenatal lactation class for up to 6 attendees. Perfect if you already have postpartum support lined up.
All services include email & phone follow-up support. Travel fees may apply for visits beyond a certain radius — disclosed at time of booking. Contact me if you're unsure which option is right for you.
À la carte
Each service is also available to book individually — or added onto any package.
For expectant families
A warm, relaxed group class held in your home — designed for the birthing parent and up to five close family members or friends. We cover everything you need to know before baby arrives, so you feel prepared rather than overwhelmed.
I offer this as a group class intentionally. The people around you after birth can make or break your feeding experience — and when they understand what you're going through, they become your greatest support rather than a source of pressure or doubt.
Why it matters to include your people

One-on-one in-home support for the days, weeks, and months after baby arrives. Whether you're struggling with latch, worried about supply, or just need someone knowledgeable in your corner — I'm here.
Pump support
Flange sizing makes an enormous difference to pumping comfort and output. I provide educational guidance on pump part sizing and can supply correctly-fitted parts — so you don't have to figure it out alone.

A CLSP (Certified Lactation Support Provider) is a non-clinical lactation education and counseling professional, credentialed through GOLD Lactation Academy. A CLSP provides education, support, and referrals but does not perform clinical assessment, diagnose, or prescribe. An IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) is a clinically-trained healthcare professional who performs comprehensive lactation assessments and manages complex situations. CLSPs and IBCLCs work together — if your situation needs clinical care, I will refer you to an IBCLC.
No referral needed. You can book directly through the Booking page. If your midwife, OB, or pediatrician has recommended lactation support, I'm happy to work collaboratively with them — just let me know at the time of booking.
Ideally between 32–36 weeks of pregnancy, though I can accommodate earlier or later depending on availability. The class is designed to give you enough time to absorb the information before baby arrives while still being close enough to feel relevant and timely.
Your feeding choice is yours and it will be completely respected. Many families use combination feeding, and many choose formula. I can provide education on safe formula preparation and feeding, and I'll never pressure you to continue breastfeeding if it isn't right for your family. Fed is best, full stop.
Absolutely and enthusiastically yes. I work with all families and use the language and terms you prefer. Please note on your intake form or at booking how you'd like to be addressed, and I'll follow your lead throughout our time together.
Lactation support coverage varies widely by insurer and plan. I can provide a superbill (receipt with service codes) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement, but I am not able to bill insurance directly at this time. I recommend checking with your insurer in advance. Washington State Medicaid covers certified lactation consultant services — contact your plan for details.
I serve the greater Seattle area in Washington State. Please contact me with your location and I'll confirm whether I cover your area. Travel fees may apply for visits beyond a certain radius — this will be disclosed at the time of booking.

From the families I've supported
There is nothing more meaningful than hearing how our time together made a difference. These are real words from real families — shared with their permission and my deepest gratitude.

"She came to our home two days after we got back from the hospital. I was exhausted, emotional, and convinced I was doing everything wrong. Within an hour she had us both calm, a better latch established, and — most importantly — she made me feel like I was capable. She never once made me feel judged for my questions or my fears. I cannot recommend her highly enough."
"The prenatal class was one of the best decisions we made. My partner came too and it completely changed his understanding of what I'd be going through. We went into birth feeling genuinely prepared — not scared. When things got hard in the first week, we had the knowledge to problem-solve rather than panic."
"I was three months postpartum, back at work, and pumping was becoming a nightmare. I had no idea my flange size was wrong — I'd been using what came in the box. Samantha came out, assessed the fit, I ordered new parts, and everything changed. Output went up, pain went away. I wish I'd called in week one."
"As a same-sex couple we were a little nervous about whether we'd feel truly welcomed. We absolutely did. Samantha used our preferred language without hesitation, never made our family feel unusual or different, and gave us the same warm, thorough care I imagine any family receives. It meant the world to us."
"I'd had a really difficult experience with my first baby — low supply, a lot of guilt, stopped at 6 weeks feeling like I'd failed. Samantha helped me understand what had happened and why, and helped me prepare differently the second time. I fed my second baby for 14 months. That shift started with her."

"Worth every penny. I was ready to quit breastfeeding entirely. After one visit I had a plan, I had confidence, and I had someone in my corner."
"The fact that she comes to your home is huge. I didn't have to pack up a newborn. She sat on my couch and we figured it out together. That is exactly what you need in week two."
"My mother kept telling me to give up. Samantha helped me feel confident enough to trust myself and my body. We're at 8 months and still going strong."
"The prenatal class covered things no one had ever told me. The section on what to expect in the first 100 hours alone was worth the entire class."
"She referred me to an IBCLC when she identified my baby might have a tongue tie — and was totally upfront about why. That honesty and that referral genuinely changed our journey."
"Non-judgmental is an understatement. When I told her I wanted to combination feed she didn't even blink — just helped me figure out the best way to make it work for our family."
Every family's journey is different. Let's make yours one you feel good about.
