Welcome new Parents!

We are excited that you are here

Welcome to my lactation consultant website. I’m Ashley — a caring, experienced, and passionate International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) dedicated to helping new and expectant parents navigate their breastfeeding journey. I proudly offer in-home lactation visits throughout New York City, including Brooklyn, Manhattan, and The Bronx, as well as virtual consultations for families located anywhere.

Whether you’re facing latch issues, supply concerns, tongue tie challenges, or just need reassurance, I’m here to help. Each visit includes a thorough 60 to 90-minute assessment, along with one full week of follow-up support via phone, text, or email. Learn more about what to expect during “The Visit” here.

In addition to being an IBCLC, I hold a Doctorate in Public Health, with a research focus on breastfeeding outcomes. My work has shown that when partners are actively involved, breastfeeding success improves significantly. I encourage support people (especially partners) to attend sessions if you’re comfortable.

I’m currently in-network with Aetna and United Healthcare, with more plans coming soon. Insurance coverage may vary depending on your policy, so please visit the Insurance page for full details.

"Truly the best thing I have done for myself postpartum. Ashley is so kind, knowledgeable, and non-judgmental. I learned so much from her during our visit and I am so greatful to have found her. Book a session with her- you will not regret it."
Allie D.
"After coming home from the hospital with my newborn I was in total shock and still had so many questions about how to breastfeed my baby. Ashley very patiently answered my millions of questions, she confirmed that my newborn was latching well, and she even offered to bring me a coffee! She was also available in the weeks after to answer more of my questions by text. Ashley is warm and knowledgeable. She not only provided me and my baby with excellent care but she gave me the peace of mind and confidence I needed at a time that was very very stressful for me. Six months later I am still happily breastfeeding and well on my way to making my goal of breastfeeding for a full year, and I have Ashley to thank for that!! I still refer to notes that I took with her to help me continue on my breastfeeding and pumping journey. Thank you Ashley!

"Ashley was exactly what I needed to kickstart our feeding routine. Ashley responded promptly within 1 business day, was able to slot us in for a visit ASAP. She was knowledgeable and took her time to get to know us and the baby, and to answer all of our questions. She was factual and really careful about not expressing or pushing a preference on us- I felt supported and was able to get a lot of information about different types of feeing as well as confirmation about approximate intake amounts due to a weighted feed! Lastly, she was great about my follow up questions. I would highly recommend- She's knowledgeable and has a non-judgemental, factual bedside manner that is great for a first time mom!
