“She went above and beyond”
Stephanie helped me shortly after bringing my twins home from the NICU. She was incredible in teaching and encouraging tandem feedings. She even knew how to solve a problem before it occurred and was so intuitive and knowledgeable. She really helped me emotionally. Her follow-up over the first year was also impeccable.

“Listens Attentively”
Not only was it a blessing that I got to work with Stephanie at the Hospital, but she was able to help me through my breastfeeding dilemma. I had mastitis with my other two children and she taught me how to prevent it this time. I was able to breastfeed my daughter for a year with no difficulties.
Jenny
“Always accessible”
Stephanie was my LC before delivery, at the hospital, and for weeks afterwards. As a new mom I had a lot of questions and she was informative, kind and patient. She even introduced us to our Pediatrician! She was always a phone call away and would be there to support me. I recommend her to everyone when they ask.
