I’ve worked with Julee for over two years - as a first time mom who wanted to exclusively breastfeed my daughter, i struggled with nipple pain. Thankfully, we met Julee who supported us with a unique care plan and walked us through our breastfeeding journey, from establishing my supply while I was on maternity leave to maintaining my supply via pumping at work, and even working with our caregivers to bottlefeed baby in a way that supported the transition from bottle back to breast. She is also helping our second baby through some tongue and lip tie issues. Julee is truly a jack of all trades, allowing us to receive support and treatment for all things related to feeding without having to see multiple specialists. I don’t think I would’ve reached my breastfeeding goals without her expertise and support. Thank you, Julee!
