As a new mother, feeding your baby is the most nurturing gift you can give them, but there are many obstacles that can get in the way of having it be the empowered experience you thought it would be. 



Our passion lies in solving the root cause to feeding difficulties and
Empowering families while
pinpointing real life answers!

Google and your well-meaning friends have you more confused than ever. 

You feel more than “not good enough” at what others keep saying is the most basic and natural thing.

You generally love the life you’ve built, but you’re not loving feeding your baby and it’s heartbreaking.

Isolation is creeping in as you continue to unsuccessfully try new things over and over again.

It constantly feels like loved ones, friends and community are seeing you as a failure.

The “Mom Guilt” is crushing, especially when feeding isn’t going as planned.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

We start where you’re most comfortable. The consults starts by  supporting families through many lactation and infant feeding seasons of life, using personalized, best practice, evidence based research with a holistic approach and bodywork for you and your baby. I’m committed to providing an empowering experience for you that begins where you are and continues with on-going followups as long as you need itt.

You’ll be met exactly where You are Because we love what we do. 

Working with us will support you to:

Feel safe and protected with support from a professional who deeply listens and honors your requests.

Get out in the world again, go on walks with your partner, spend the day at the community pool or grab lunch with a friend without fear that difficult feeding will get in the way.

Simply grab a diaper bag and run out the door because you confidently know what to do when on-the-go.

Have empowered conversations with other health care providers and advocate for your and your baby's needs because you’re well-informed and clear on what you want.

IMPACT WORD

This work truly chose me. I know the struggle breastfeeding and pumping brings - Dedicating my career to women's health to protect and walk along side as a guide to infant feeding. The business is named after my daughter LilyArden who taught me so many lessons and to trust motherhood.

Hi, We're Lilyarden Lactation!

I’m a Registered Nurse (RN) and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Barnes & Gillespie trained MyoFascial Release provider and Neonatal Touch & Massage Certified with a plethora of tools to support, protect and guide you with.

Sara Walsh RN, IBCLC

Hi! I'm Jess Smith a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) and student IBCLC and I love babies. Easygoing and gentle, I trust your babies lead. 
Using my accredited training in pre/postnatal, pre/post surgical and repetitive injury massage work; I found my place in infant massage due to the complexities that the smallest of humans have. Tension, while commonly overlooked is present in infants. Whether that be from being birthed, tight spaces and repetitive tight latching I have seen the most amazing goals met with the beauty of bodywork!

"I am so grateful for her endless support and guidance though my journey. They are resourceful, compassionate and understanding. She helped me find the care I needed and cheered us on through difficulty and tongue tie. I would have given up if it wasn't for her help. Don't hesitate any longer!"

They are your breast friends!
