At The Elgin Doula, we are a dedicated team of Certified Lactation Counselors (CLCs) committed to providing your family with unparalleled support. With over 95 hours of specialized lactation education, each of our lactation specialists is a trained medical professional, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care.
We specialize in supporting normal newborn feeding, as well as helping breastfeeding dyads overcome common challenges. For more complex breastfeeding issues, we refer to trusted Breastfeeding Medicine Physicians, Occupational Therapists, or Speech-Language Pathologists to ensure you receive the comprehensive care you deserve.
While our practice remains out-of-network with all health insurance plans, we offer flexible self-pay options at the time of scheduling or as part of your comprehensive doula support package. You can also utilize HSA or FSA funds for both in-home and Telehealth lactation sessions. Additionally, upon request, we provide a super-bill for potential insurance reimbursement.
