We're in network with all major commercial insurance plans and every Georgia Medicaid CMO. Our billing team is in-house, with no third-party billing services between you and your care.

Support That Meets You Where You Are
Whether you visit us in office, connect through telehealth, or schedule an in-home visit, you'll receive care from our multi-specialty team of lactation specialists, nurse practitioners, and collaborating physicians. Thoughtful, evidence-based care personalized to your needs and your baby's, with the same clinical depth across every visit type.
From the first latch to your last pump, we guide you with kindness, expertise, and clinical support every step of the way.
More Than a Class. It's a Community.
Our prenatal breastfeeding class and Centering Motherhood group go beyond breastfeeding basics. They blend clinical guidance, peer support, and real-world education into a group setting that feels equal parts care and connection.
In these shared visits, led by IBCLCs and pediatric nurse practitioners, you'll learn from experts and from each other, gaining confidence, asking questions, and building bonds with other parents who are right there with you. Because you deserve support that's not just smart, it's shared.
Both are covered by most major insurance plans and Georgia Medicaid CMOs. We believe in the power of community, and we'll be with you, every step of the way.

Breast Pumps and Support, All Under One Roof.
At Breastfeed Atlanta, we offer everything you need to feel confident on your pumping journey, from expert education to trusted equipment.
Our IBCLCs help you choose the right breast pump for your body, your lifestyle, and your goals. Whether you're getting an insurance-covered personal pump, renting a hospital-grade model, or upgrading to something that works better, we're here to help.
We rent hospital-grade pumps from Medela (Symphony), Ameda (Platinum), and Zomee, and we offer personalized pump education in office or virtually so you can get started with confidence.
Pick up your pump in office, have it shipped, or schedule in-home delivery. We make it easy to access what you need, right when you need it.
In their own words.
These are real reviews from real families we've cared for. Some in office, some at home, some over video. They're here because each one says something specific about how we work.
"I was a new mama with a preemie baby who couldn't latch for 6 weeks. Daniella and the team walked with me every step of the way, from pumping, to learning how to help my baby latch, to supply issues, to pain. All the things. Now my baby is a happy breastfed boy who is growing well."
Tiana P.
"Daniella is truly amazing. The adjustments are small but profound, that's real expertise. And for anyone with Aetna using Aeroflow: Aetna does NOT tell you that an Aeroflow postpartum class counts as one of your covered lactation visits. Shoutout to Jessica in billing who caught that for me."
Jordan B.
"Beth Myler worked with me to provide mental health support around breastfeeding and overall postpartum wellness. She talked through my mental health history and made sure I had every resource I needed. I cannot recommend her enough for anyone postpartum."
Morgan R.
"The first week was such a struggle. The team here helped create a clear, personalized plan that not only improved breastfeeding, it saved my sanity. We live a bit farther south, but it's absolutely worth the drive. Even better, during the first couple of weeks they can come to your home. Judith, Daniella, and Erica at MilkCrate were all so hands-on and kind."
Alicia A.
"I've been pumping for my NICU baby for 5 weeks and had pain I didn't even realize while pumping. I saw 5 lactation consultants before them, and this office is the only one that measured me. I've done 6 pumps since my appointment and I'm already in a lot less pain."
Malka G.
"My son had tongue and lip ties and a really clampy latch. I cried in Breastfeed Atlanta's office more than once. They always met me with the perfect blend of compassion and practical advice. Without their support, I would have given up at 4 weeks. Instead I was able to breastfeed for 18 months, including pumping during my workday for 14 months."

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Most commercial insurance plans cover lactation visits at 100 percent with no copay or deductible. We're in-network with Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, Humana, and Ambetter. Lactation services are billed directly to your insurance by our in-house billing team, so most families pay nothing out of pocket. We verify your benefits before your first visit so you know exactly what to expect.
-

Yes. Breastfeed Atlanta offers in-home lactation consultant visits across metro Atlanta with no travel surcharge. Your insurance covers the in-home lactation consultation the same as an office visit. We come to your home so you can focus on feeding your baby in the space where you'll actually be doing it.

Yes. Our virtual lactation consultations are available with the same clinical team, often same-day. Also called telehealth lactation visits, they're well-suited for follow-ups, supply concerns, pumping questions, and anything where a visual exam isn't required. Virtual visits are covered by insurance the same as office visits.
-
Most lactation practices are consultant-only. They can identify clinical issues but refer out for treatment. Breastfeed Atlanta is a multi-specialty practice with IBCLCs, lactation specialists, nurse practitioners, and collaborating physicians working together. Our team can evaluate, treat, prescribe when appropriate, and follow up under one roof, including mastitis management, tongue tie evaluation, supply issues that need clinical intervention, and perinatal mental health support. This is different from working with a single lactation consultant.
-
Yes. Our clinical team includes IBCLCs, lactation specialists, and a pediatric physician with lactation medicine expertise. We evaluate and document tongue tie, coordinate a release with the right pediatric provider, and then provide the post-release feeding rehabilitation that determines whether the release actually solved the problem.
-
Our clinical team treats a wide range of breastfeeding and lactation issues including low milk supply, mastitis, clogged ducts, engorgement, sore or cracked nipples, thrush, vasospasm, oversupply, latch problems, tongue tie, and complications related to pumping. We also support adoptive parents through induced lactation, NICU graduate families, and parents returning to work with pumping plans. If you're not sure whether we can help with your specific situation, call us at (404) 454-9715 to discuss.
-
For most lactation concerns, we can usually schedule a consultation within a few days. For urgent issues like mastitis, severe latch pain, or sudden supply changes, we work to find the next available appointment as quickly as possible. Call us at (404) 454-9715 to discuss timing for your specific situation.
-
A lactation specialist is a clinical professional with advanced training in lactation care, including International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs), nurse practitioners with lactation expertise, and physicians specializing in lactation medicine. At Breastfeed Atlanta, our team includes lactation specialists at every credential level, so the depth of expertise matches the complexity of your situation. A nurse practitioner can evaluate and treat conditions like mastitis or thyroid-related supply issues that an IBCLC alone cannot.
-

We're in-network with all major commercial insurance plans (Aetna, Anthem BCBS, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, Humana, Ambetter) and every Georgia Medicaid CMO. Our in-house billing team verifies your benefits before your first visit so you know exactly what to expect. For families without insurance, we can discuss self-pay options during scheduling.
-
A prenatal lactation consultation prepares you for breastfeeding before your baby arrives. During the visit, your IBCLC or nurse practitioner reviews your medical and breastfeeding history, discusses your goals, examines for any anatomical concerns (like flat or inverted nipples), reviews positioning techniques, and creates a plan for the first weeks postpartum. Prenatal lactation consultations are typically covered by insurance.
