Testimonials
Linda is absolutely fantastic! We scheduled 2 visits after my son was born for her to come to my home. She was so sweet and kind and answered all of my questions! Linda also is very responsive and easy to talk to! She helped build my confidence with breastfeeding. I will certainly be using her when we have more children! --Adrienne W.

Linda was incredibly smart, supportive, caring, and kind during my breastfeeding journey. After an unsuccessful journey with my first a few years ago, I was skeptical that it would work with my second. Thanks to her guidance, we were able to work together and with my pediatrician to get us on the right track. I ended up exclusively breastfeeding for 10 months and it was a true joy. I could not have done this without Linda! --Devon T.

I sought out Linda for lactation counseling after the birth of my baby girl and I couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Linda was not only a wealth of knowledge, but also an invaluable support to me. Linda was incredibly responsive to my questions even after our scheduled consultations. She often responded to my specific questions and situation very quickly saving me many minutes/hours weeding through Google, while giving me reassurance at the same time. As a first time mom, the encouragement and confidence boost that she offered not only helped me get the hang of nursing, but has helped me to thrive and enjoy the special time with my baby. I highly recommend working with Linda for breastfeeding support as well as joining her courses on CPR/choking. --Anna C.

I was referred to Linda by my sister-in-law, Christie who used Linda as her IBCLC for her son Jacob. I wanted to meet with an IBCLC early on with our second son, James to be sure we were set up for success on our breastfeeding journey. Linda was very efficient in setting up an initial meeting- she was able to fit me into her schedule on the day I filled out her intake form. We met virtually due to me being outside of her distance radius, and although I was hesitant at first to have a virtual consult it ended up being a very helpful one! My husband held the phone as I breastfed and Linda was able to see the latch, the status of my nipples and could offer tips and tricks on repositioning suggestions.
Linda was a joy to work with! We had many struggles with our first son (poor weight gain, a tongue / lip tie, reflux and colic), so going into my second breastfeeding journey I did feel nervous and unsure of what the work would entail. Linda helped boost my confidence and helped me work though some minoring positioning to help our James latch. She recommended a special nipple cream (Tripple Nipple- an amazing creation!!!) to help my sore / cracked nipples, and it worked within days! Linda checked in periodically via text over the first few weeks to see how we were doing. Thankfully I felt more “with it” this second time around and was lucky to have a baby who was a very efficient feeder with very few challenges. Linda discharged us from her care after a visit and told me to reach out if anything else came up.
One special point I must speak to, is how Linda took me on as a client and fellow nurse. We didn’t realize until after the fact that our insurance wasn’t accepted by ‘Latch with Linda’. Because of this we would have had to pay a pretty substantial cost for our telehealth visit. Linda gave this appointment to us as a gift and said she wanted to give back to her people- as a “nurse to nurse”. This was so very generous of her and truly made me realize what a wonderful nurse and IBCLC she is! (And as a NICU nurse myself, this spoke volumes!!)
If you’re searching for a great IBCLC, look no further! Linda is your girl and she will help you meet your breastfeeding goals! :) --Nicole C.

Having Linda on my postpartum team was such a wonderful experience. She came to the house right after my little guy was born to help us get set up for nursing success. I was so nervous when he wasn’t putting on weight, but Linda came every few days to monitor him and help figure out what the problem was. She provided guidance on pumping and we ultimately came to a breast milk formula combo that worked for us! When I had follow up questions about bottles and starting solids, Linda was just a text away. We’re now in our 13th month of breastfeeding, and have Linda to thank for supporting us on our journey! --Mollie G.

Working with Linda was the absolute best. She made me feel comfortable and confident during appointments. Her knowledge base about breastfeeding as well as infant care was amazing. She was so kind and reached out weeks after our appointments to see how my daughter and I were doing. Not only is she a great lactation consultant, she is a kind and compassionate individual. I highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a lactation consultant and will for sure be using her again with future babies. --Elizabeth S.

Linda was amazing! As a first time mom who decided to breastfeed, I cannot imagine doing it without Linda's help. She was so kind, informative, and extremely helpful. She was always willing to answer any questions I had at any time of day and about any topic related to our daughter. Not only did she help me feel confident about breastfeeding, but she also helped us with the transition to solid foods and recommended classes and resources to us. Thanks to Linda, I will have officially made it a year (next week) breastfeeding my little one. 😊 --Meredith W.

I cannot recommend Linda enough! She was so helpful and really kind and empathetic during the the first month especially of my sons life when he was having trouble gaining weight. It was really stressful (which doesn’t help supply issues) and having her to reach out to felt like a lifeline. I told my friends she was my therapist. I never had to supplement with formula and was able to fully breastfeed (& stop supplementing with pumped BM) by the time my son was 1 month. I wouldn’t have been able to breast feed without her and continue until my son was 1. She really cares about her clients and that matters in this profession especially. --Rachel D.

Linda was amazing to work with. I struggled to produce milk and she made me feel calmer about it and gave me plans to try to increase my supply. She was so knowledgeable and comforting. Although my breastfeeding journey wasn't quite successful as my milk supply didn't increase despite our efforts, Linda never made me feel bad about it and I am very grateful for her guidance. I hope to work with her for my second too. --Christina V.

Linda has been a wonderful support to our family with breastfeeding, but especially with helping us navigate our son's tongue-tie in the first two weeks of his life. I have continued to reach out to her with questions and she is always prompt and personal with all of her advice. We are so grateful to have her for our breastfeeding journey! --Sarah M.

I had my first daughter in March 2020 and after about 3 months was concerned she wasn’t getting enough milk. I wasn’t sure if it was my supply or her latch. Linda was so easy to work with and super helpful with providing different positions to feed and really put my mind at ease with regards to my milk supply and how to attempt to increase it (if need be). She was also very responsive and helpful with quick questions via text! I would recommend her for any lactation issues. --Kimberly D.

Our daughter was born October 5, 2021 and had difficulty latching in those first weeks. Needless to say, we were concerned but had received a recommendation to reach out to Linda from our hospital nurse. Linda was so exceptional to work with. She was responsive, thoughtful to our urgency and arrived exactly when she said she would. She made my wife and I feel at ease immediately and took us through various techniques to ensure our daughter was able to latch, feed, burp and be comfortable while getting her nutrition. Our daughter is right on schedule with all of her milestones and we owe much of that early relief to Linda! We couldn't recommend Linda more!! --Christopher D.

I’ve worked with Linda through two very different breastfeeding journeys with two children. Throughout every step of those journeys, Linda has been so helpful, patient and informative! I had various difficulties with my first and Linda was there to help teach us and then support us to reach my breastfeeding goal in a way that worked for us. She was always so quick to respond whether it was a quick text, call or a last-minute visit. When my second child came around, I was so relieved to know “Lactation Linda” was still practicing! I can’t thank Linda enough for all the help and advice she has given me over the years and I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to make the best of their breastfeeding journey-you won’t regret it! --Alyssa T.

I highly recommend working with “Lactation Linda,” as I have her number saved. I have used her services with two babies now. With my first child, I had no clue about breastfeeding, but I knew I wanted to do it. Everything was so new, and the internet was full of confusing information. I met with Linda 5 or 6 times, each time becoming a more confident breastfeeder. With my second baby, I thought I’d jump right back into the swing of things, but I quickly learned every baby is different. I called up Linda, and she was able to bring her scale for weighted feeds and show me new ways to be successful with a smaller baby who refused expressed milk. I remember being absolutely exhausted late one night and texting Linda for bottle suggestions. She got right back to me with options and encouragement. She’s an amazing resource, she really loves the babies, and she truly cares about the breastfeeding person as a whole. I cannot recommend Latch with Linda enough! --Alexis D.

Linda was so great to work with! She was able to come out immediately to check in with me and my concerns with breast-feeding. She was so kind and understanding. It was my second time around with breastfeeding and was having some issues that she was able to help me with and solve. She provided on going support via text/email. I would highly recommend her for anything baby related! --Brittany

Linda is amazing! She helped me with breastfeeding after both of my pregnancies. She’s always super flexible with her schedule and wonderful at what she does. I recommend her to anyone who is looking for breastfeeding support! --Stephanie G.

My baby was home from the hospital 24 hours and we were told by the doctor that he couldn’t lose any more weight. I was struggling with breastfeeding and so stressed and needed help. I was given Linda’s name and when I reached out she responded so quickly. She came to my house the next morning and was a game changer! She was so knowledgeable and supportive and immediately my son was feeding better. Each time she came to my house I learned something new and felt more confident Breastfeeding. My son gained weight and is doing great now! I highly recommend Linda to any new breastfeeding Mom! She is the best😊 --Christie M.

I highly recommend Linda as a lactation consultant! She is very helpful and patient and calm. She is a great supportive resource with nursing and she is incredibly informative and easy to talk to. --Maureen P.

Linda was a total and complete lifesaver! When my daughter was born I thought breastfeeding would come easy because I was a pediatric nurse practitioner- boy was I wrong! I truly felt so overwhelmed and thought I would make it max 3 weeks with breastfeeding. After three visits with Linda, I had the confidence and techniques I needed in order to have a successful breastfeeding journey. My daughter is now 23 months and we are still on the journey! I truly believe Linda is one of the main reasons behind that! --Margie L.

Linda is truly so wonderful at her work — she is very encouraging, easy to talk to, patient, and makes you feel really comfortable. I probably would have quit nursing if it wasn’t for her... she helped us with our first baby, we are expecting baby #2 very soon and I would definitely go back to her, I am so thankful for her support! --Maria M.

I'm a three-peat client who has been lucky enough to work with Linda and am grateful for all her help and guidance! --Michele L.
