My name is Christine Salvucci and I am a Nurse and an IBCLC. I have over 10 years of experience in the field. My background is NICU nursing and after the birth of my first son, I shifted my career focus on being an IBCLC to support families in their home with breast and bottle feeding difficulties. I am a mom of 2 boys (3yrs & 1.5yr) and am local to Quincy MA. I service a lot of MA and am looking forward to working with you.

I offer lactation consulting for families all throughout their breastfeeding journey including prenatally.
Christine is the best lactation consultant I’ve ever worked with. She is passionate about what she does and treats her clients like friends, not customers. She is truly one of a kind!

Working with Christine was an absolute God send. As a third time mom who struggled with breast feeding with each prior baby, Christine was committed to making the process both successful and enjoyable. She is dedicated, supportive, compassionate and went above and beyond countless times to ensure I felt cared for along with my baby. I now recommend her to all of my mom friends and could not be more grateful to have her as a part of my postpartum and motherhood journeys.

I can’t even put into words how grateful I am that Christine came into my life! As a former PICU nurse for 8 years I thought having a baby and all that goes with it would come naturally. I couldn’t have been more wrong! My daughter wouldn’t latch in the hospital and I went home feeling completely overwhelmed between attempting to nurse, failing to latch, pumping, and then bottle feeding. In comes Christine with a coffee in hand for this sleep deprived mama. She makes it feel like you have known her for years and I couldn’t believe how instantly at ease I felt. She offers realistic plans that meet YOUR needs (with everything written on her portal cause let’s be honest you’re going to forget!) and is able to provide lots of laughs along the way! In addition to providing lactation and feeding education, she also looks at the whole picture and all the struggles that come along with transitioning into motherhood. A couple weeks after delivery, I suffered from significant mental health issues and Christine continued to be there to support both me and my family. I have never been so vulnerable and I will forever be indebted to her. Christine has seen me at my absolute lowest point, yet is still able to lift me up and make me feel confident as a new mom. Even though our feeding situation is established now I still like Christine to come back and see us! It’s like catching up with an old friend who has the education and background to reassure you that you are crushing it as a new mom! I can’t recommend her enough for anyone who is struggling with feeding their baby – or even if you aren’t and just have some questions! Christine is so knowledgeable, compassionate, and there is no way I would have been able to feed the way I wanted without her! I could go on and on about how amazing Christine is, but just do yourself a favor and book her – you won’t regret it!
