What Families are Saying
"Ellie was truly incredible. Our newborn was having latching issues with BF and bottle, and 3 lactation consultants were not able to help. Finally Ellie came into the picture and took a holistic approach with OT exercises for her oral dysfunction, but also evaluated her strength and gross motor development holistically. She not only got our daughter feeding efficiently and back to healthy weight gain, but also helped her catch up on gross motor delays. This was such a challenging time as a postpartum mother, and Ellie’s expertise, warmth and support were truly a game changer for our family."
-Allie, Milky Moments Mama
“"I never would've imagined giving birth to a NICU baby. Our entire experience in the NICU was full of anxiety for me and my husband. Ellie was a steady encouragement and light for us. She helped me with nursing frustrations and leaned in with so much patience and grace. Could not speak more highly of her as a person and lactation consultant!"
-Joy, Milky Moments Mama
“I can’t recommend Ellie enough. She made me feel completely at ease during such an overwhelming time. Her genuine care and expertise of all things baby really was a game-changer for my little one’s feeding.”
-Lauren, Milky Moments Mama
