Lactation Consultant & Overnight Newborn Care in Los Angeles

I provide personalized lactation consultation and breastfeeding support for families in Pasadena and throughout the Los Angeles area. I also offer in-home overnight newborn care with integrated lactation support, allowing you to receive expert guidance while getting the rest your body needs during the early postpartum weeks. Whether you are experiencing breastfeeding challenges or simply want reassurance that feeding is going well, this care is designed to help you feel more confident and supported in your feeding journey.

Private Initial In-Home Lactation Consultation — $375

A private in-home 2 Hour lactation consultation is a great option if you are experiencing challenges such as:

• nipple or breast pain during breastfeeding
• difficulty with latch or positioning
• baby fussiness at the breast
• concerns about milk supply
• supplementing with expressed milk or formula
• concerns about tongue tie or lip tie
• pumping questions or returning to work
• uncertainty about newborn feeding patterns

During an in-home consultation, I meet with you and your baby in the comfort of your home so we can fully assess feeding in a relaxed environment.

Appointments typically last 1.5–2 hours and include:

• a detailed health and breastfeeding history
• observation of a feeding at the breast
• guidance on latch and positioning adjustments
• tongue and lip tie assessment
• feeding weight checks using a hospital-grade infant scale

Together we create a personalized feeding plan designed to help you reach your breastfeeding goals and feel confident supporting your baby’s feeding needs.

If you are unsure whether this service is the right fit for your family, please reach out to me directly to schedule a complimentary phone consultation to discuss your concerns before booking.

Overnight Newborn Care & Breastfeeding Support

In-Home Support for Rest, Recovery, and Confident Feeding

Bringing your baby home is an incredible and transformative time — but the nights can also sometimes feel long, exhausting, and overwhelming.

If you’re feeling sleep-deprived, unsure, or simply in need of more support, you don’t have to navigate this alone.

I offer in-home overnight newborn care in Los Angeles, combining responsive, nurturing baby care with expert IBCLC-level breastfeeding support — so you can rest, recover, and feel confident in caring for your baby.

What Is Overnight Newborn Care?

Often referred to as a night nurse, night nanny, or overnight doula, this type of support provides care for your baby overnight while you sleep.

As a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), my approach goes beyond traditional overnight care.

You receive both hands-on newborn care and real-time breastfeeding guidance throughout the night, helping you protect your milk supply while getting the rest your body needs.

What Overnight Support Looks Like

Overnight shifts are typically 9:30-10:00 PM – 6:00 AM, allowing you to get deeper, more restorative sleep while your baby is cared for in a calm, supportive environment.

Investment

Overnight newborn care is offered at:

$75-$80/Hour
(Approximately 9:00/9:30 PM – 6:00 AM)

Packages and multiple-night bookings are available upon request. Overnight support is not about replacing you — it is about supporting you.

Throughout the night, I provide:

Full Newborn Care

• Feeding support (breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or combination feeding)
• Diapering, burping, and soothing
• Supporting your baby back to sleep
• Reading and responding to your baby’s cues

Breastfeeding & Milk Supply Support (IBCLC-Level Care)

• Assistance with latch and positioning during night feeds
• Support with pumping, milk supply, and feeding plans
• Helping you protect and build milk supply while getting rest
• Gentle, evidence-based guidance without pressure or overwhelm

Support for You

• Bringing baby to you for feeds (if desired)
• Handling all other care so you can return to sleep quickly
• Emotional reassurance and support during the early postpartum period

In-Home Follow-Up Consultation — $300

Follow-up appointments are helpful when breastfeeding concerns are still ongoing or when new questions arise after our initial visit.

Families often schedule follow-ups if they are experiencing:

• continued breastfeeding pain
• baby fussiness during feeds
• concerns about milk supply
• questions about pumping or returning to work
• changes in baby’s feeding behavior

A follow-up consultation can provide reassurance that feeding is progressing well and offers an opportunity to refine your feeding plan as your baby grows. These appointments are also a great time to discuss long-term feeding goals, including pumping routines, bottle introduction, and returning to work.

Virtual Lactation Consultation — $230

Virtual consultations are available via Zoom and can be scheduled regardless of your location. These sessions are a convenient option if an in-home appointment is not possible.

Virtual consultations typically last 60–90 minutes and include:

• a review of your health and breastfeeding history
• observation of a feeding when possible
• guidance on achieving a comfortable, effective latch
• strategies to improve milk transfer and feeding efficiency
• a personalized feeding plan to support your goals

Virtual consultations also provide an excellent opportunity to discuss:

• pumping strategies and milk supply
• returning to work while breastfeeding
• bottle feeding guidance
• introducing solid foods

Each virtual consultation includes one week of follow-up support via email or phone if additional questions arise.

Insurance & Payment Information

After each appointment, families receive a Superbill receipt that can be submitted to their insurance provider for possible reimbursement if lactation support is covered under their health plan.

Sliding Scale Support

I believe breastfeeding support should be accessible to all families. Sliding scale pricing is available for families who may benefit from financial assistance. If the listed fees feel like a barrier, please feel free to reach out to discuss available options.
