Natalie Baba2024-01-07I am loving my appointments with Safiya. As a new mom who had an emergency c section… I was having trouble producing milk and getting my baby to latch. Safiya has been patient, reassuring and has helped me feel more confident trying to continue nursing. I especially appreciate her being able to come to me as I haven’t quite gotten the hang of traveling with my baby just yet. Thank you for everything, Safiya!
Courtney Price2024-01-06Wonderful experience!
Saijad Dhuka2024-01-02We had the pleasure of working with Safiya, who visited our home to help us with breastfeeding. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional. She took the time to understand our concerns and provided us with a wealth of information and resources that were invaluable. Her expertise and guidance helped us overcome some of the challenges we were facing with latching. She was patient, kind, and compassionate throughout the entire process. We felt comfortable asking her questions and discussing our concerns with her. We are so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of lactation support.
shalini reddy2024-01-02Had a great experience with Safiya. She is very encouraging and supportive of my lactation journey.
Estefania Oliva2023-12-28She gave me hope in the midst of my baby blues. I decided to try her out after a friend highly recommended her. I was about to throw in the towel for breastfeeding and pumping and just turn to formula due to desperation but she was so sweet and reassuring she came up with a plan that fit with my goals and gave me very helpful advice on pumping.I left my session feeling hopeful and reinvigorated.
Chelsea Deleon2023-12-27Safiya is extremely helpful and is very patient as well as awnsering all my questions she is very knowledgeable I learned so so much just in the first visit! Definitely would recommend to anyone especially, first time moms like me. 😁
Akshaya Ganesh2023-12-25Safiya from Simply Lactation has been so helpful in my breastfeeding journey. She showed me how to latch my newborn even with a tongue tie and has also clarified a lot of doubts about pumping and how to boost milk supply. Would definitely recommend her expertise to anyone looking for help with their BF journey.
Shaheryar Ali2023-12-10One visit here and we are already seeing the results. Highly recommend.
Nancy Huynh2023-11-28I was very close to giving up with breast pumping at 5 months due to incorrect flange size but Safiya was able to identify the problem. She gave me tips on how to heal and within 3-4 days, I am back to breastfeeding and pumping. Its nice to have an at home lactation specialist and someone that is quick with text communication when you have questions.
MEI MEI2023-11-27I didn’t have any milk in the first four days after giving birth to my baby. When we met Safiya on day five, she provided professional, detailed, and thorough help. I started to have milk on the day we met, and gradually produced more milk with her help. We’re so grateful to meet Safiya as my LC.
