During a consultation, a lactation consultant will assess your breastfeeding technique, your baby’s latch, and any challenges you may be facing. We will provide hands-on guidance, offer personalized recommendations, and work with you to develop a plan that meets your breastfeeding goals.

Feeding doesn't exist in isolation. Your nervous system, hormones, recovery, and sleep all influence your milk supply and your baby's ability to feed well. Hali looks at all of it.

Lactation support is designed to help you navigate the challenges of breastfeeding. Whether you're struggling with latching, milk supply, or simply need advice, a lactation consultant can provide the guidance and support you need to ensure a successful breastfeeding journey.

An IBCLC, or International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, holds the highest credential in lactation care. While anyone can call themselves a “lactation consultant,” it’s essential to check for IBCLC certification when seeking support to ensure expert care. IBCLCs undergo rigorous training over 2-5+ years, including 90 hours of lactation-specific education, health science courses, and 300-1,000 hours of hands-on clinical experience. They must also maintain and renew their credentials regularly through the IBLCE. IBCLCs play an invaluable role on the healthcare team for breastfeeding families, offering a personalized, expert approach to help you reach your feeding goals.

Yes. Hali has completed extensive continuing education on tongue ties and the support needed before and after a frenectomy. She works closely with pediatricians, occupational therapists, and dentists to ensure your baby gets comprehensive, coordinated care.

One important note — tongue ties are rarely as simple as a quick procedure. If you're concerned, start with a consultation. Hali will help you make informed decisions so you're not jumping to interventions before they're truly needed.

Insurance covers your clinical lactation visit in office or some plans cover telehealth— prenatal, newborn, through weaning, and everything in between.

If you're pregnant and want to prepare before baby arrives, that's covered. If you're six weeks postpartum and struggling, that's covered too.

What insurance doesn't cover is the support between visits the texts, the check-ins, the ongoing guidance that most moms find they really need.

If you want Hali in your corner between appointments, our Home Visit Packages and Poppins Pass Text membership was built for that.

Hali reserves your appointment time exclusively for you and your baby. Out of respect for that commitment we ask for at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule.

Cancellations made less than 24 hours before your appointment — including no-shows — will be charged a $100 cancellation fee. This fee is charged to the card on file and is not covered by insurance.

Life with a newborn is beautifully unpredictable we get it. Please be sure to reach out with notice and we will happily reschedule you.
