Lactation Counseling
Feeding support centered on your goals.
There is no single right way to feed a baby.
Mycelia Birth Co. offers individualized lactation and infant-feeding counseling for families navigating breastfeeding/chestfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, combination feeding, relactation, prenatal feeding preparation, and other feeding concerns within CLC scope.
Care should feel collaborative, inclusive, individualized, and centered around the client's own feeding goals.

Scope & Collaborative Care
Lactation counseling is one part of a bigger circle of care. When something falls outside CLC scope, that's not a dead end — it's a handoff. Mycelia may refer to, or work alongside, an IBCLC or another appropriate healthcare provider so you get exactly the level of support your situation calls for, without losing the relationship you've already built.
