I’m so thrilled to hear that Elysia will be providing lactation services for the community! She was so helpful with proper latching and a helping me through a painful experience. I think she was the biggest reason I was able to continue to breastfeed my son for 21 months. The fact that she provided services in my own home was priceless, especially when I had a four year old running around! I never felt judged and was totally comfortable. Her encouragement, compassion, and knowledge was so comforting at such a vulnerable time in my life. Thank you so much Elysia for giving me the courage to continue my breastfeeding journey!

So thankful for Elysia’s support with my third child. Even as an experienced breastfeeding mom, every baby is different and I struggled with my third one. Her reassuring words, calming demeanor and expertise were so appreciated during her initial visit and through multiple follow up conversations! The postpartum period is such an exciting time and an important period for bonding, but it can be a stressful time. I highly recommend reaching out to Elysia for support!

I'm forever grateful for Elysia’s guidance and support during my breastfeeding journey with both my children. When I had my daughter, now 7 years old, I struggled to establish a good latch and was feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. Elysia provided personalized advice, reassurance, and hands-on assistance that helped me overcome these issues. She was also helpful in outlining a pumping schedule so I could save milk without over producing. Fast forward to my second child, now 3 years old, and I faced new and totally different challenges. Elysia was just as supportive and knowledgeable, helping me find new solutions. Her compassion, expertise, and encouragement made all the difference in my ability to continue breastfeeding and pumping! I highly recommend Elysia to any new mother seeking lactation support!

Ok, moms! I'm so excited to see Elysia back in action! The best lactation consultant Charleston has to offer!I can't thank her enough for all of the help she provided me starting 4 years ago. And she's always kept in touch.Was there at 20 months breastfeeding with the solutions to a dropping supply. Her knowledge based on science and experience is untouchable. Her kindness, I will always remember. From weighted feeds 3 times a week to late night texting when crying, in the trenches, feeling like I couldn't cope with a severe tongue tied child who was losing latch. She helped us and we are forever grateful! Now she's back, and we can't recommend her enough for those searching for a LC in the Low Country.

I am so happy that the mommas of the Low Country will be able to receive care from Elysia!! Elysia is a long time friend, co-worker and care provider of mine. She is one of the best, kindest people I've ever met and she is so knowledgeable. When she cares for you, she truly cares with her whole heart. You feel seen, heard and loved by her calming and supportive presence while she provides the most up-to-date and evidence-based care. My birth and breastfeeding journey would not have been the same without her!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support Elysia provided during my breastfeeding journey. Upon coming home from the hospital, my baby had trouble latching on one side due to the nipple shape, leaving me engorged. Elysia provided thoughtful recommendations that led to a successful latch immediately and the ability to appropriately manage my engorgement without pain or impact to my supply. Elysia provided her services whenever needed, went above and beyond by following up consistently to check on our progress, and offered practical solutions and adjustments as our situation changed. As the feeding times and amounts varied throughout my baby's growth, she continued to provide personalized recommendations to match the stage of this journey we were in which was invaluable, and she always took the time to explain the 'why' behind each suggestion, empowering me with knowledge and confidence. What stood out most was not just her wealth of knowledge, but her remarkable ability to provide guidance in such a warm, encouraging way during a vulnerable and confusing time. Thanks to her guidance and unwavering support, what started as a challenging experience transformed into a beautiful bonding journey with my son. I would wholeheartedly recommend Elysia to any new mother seeking knowledgeable, compassionate lactation support. She truly changed our breastfeeding story for the better!
