Building confidence in normal feeding by offering compassionate support.

“Trish has an amazing way of providing comfort and hope in a time of frustration and confusion, all while dealing with the whirlwind of post-delivery hormones.  I seriously cannot say enough positive things about this woman, and I am so blessed to have had the privilege to work with her.”

Rachael M, Peoria, IL.

“Trish's extensive knowledge and suportive presence made all the difference in my breastfeeding relationship with my daughter.  We struggled a lot and without Trish's help, I know our breastfeeding relationship would not have been the success it was.  Tish is the first person I turn to if I need breastfeeding support and the first person I recommend to my friends.”
