  Carrie has been incredibly helpful while I've been breastfeeding my little one! As a new mom, I wasn't too sure how to navigate pumping/feeding and I called Carrie out of desperation when I had a clogged duct. She immediately responded, squeezed me into her schedule for an early morning appointment, and came over to help me out. She has also been available via text or email whenever I had any other questions! Carrie also runs a weekly mom group in Larchmont, during which we can meet other moms, ask questions, and weigh our little ones on Carrie's scale before and after a feed see how much they had. I'm so grateful for finding Carrie during my breastfeeding journey and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgable and compassionate lactation consultant!

  Carrie has been immensely helpful during our breastfeeding journey. During our first consultation, she identified a few key areas that needed improvement and put together a plan of action to get my little guy latched and feeding. We’ve come a long way and continue to go to her free weekly moms group. She is there to assist, answer questions, and do weighed feeds. Its so great to know I have this group each week to help along the way. Carrie continues to go above and beyond to help any way she can and I’d recommend her in a heartbeat to any new mom looking for help with breastfeeding.

  Carrie is a highly competent and knowledgable lactation consultant. She immediately correctly diagnosed my son's tongue-tie related nursing issue when he was 6 weeks old, and we were able to have his tongue-tie corrected within 48 hours. That in turn improved his nursing and helped me determine the most successful nursing arrangement for him and for me going forward. Carrie's expertise is matched by her compassion - she was responsive when I initially reached out for help and is very present with the client, keeping ongoing contact as per the client's comfort-level and needs. Her network of lactation-related professionals is comprised of excellent people. I highly recommend Carrie.

  Carrie is a godsend! I saw Carrie every Friday and as time passed, she noticed my baby wasn’t gaining weight. My own pediatrician didn’t sound any alarms as my daughter dropped from the 34th percentile to 3rd percentile! Carrie checked her latch, for any ties and pushed for us to see an ENT and GI and it was discovered my baby has reflux. We are finally on meds and my baby is happy and eating what she should thanks to Carrie!!
