About Breastfeed Atlanta

A multi‑specialty team, all in one place.

Breastfeed Atlanta is a multi‑specialty lactation practice serving metro Atlanta. Our collaborative team of IBCLCs and nurse practitioners is overseen by board‑certified physicians, including a specialist in breastfeeding and lactation medicine. That range is what lets us evaluate, treat, and prescribe when it’s clinically appropriate, so more of your care stays in one place. Nursing, pumping, combo feeding, or still figuring it out. We meet you where you are.

Before baby arrives

Start before baby arrives

There is a lot you can put in place before your baby arrives, and getting ahead of it makes those first days feel less daunting. Our prenatal lactation consultations and prenatal breastfeeding classes walk you through latch, what to expect in the early weeks, how to know your baby is getting enough, and how to head off the most common challenges.

We will also help you understand the role of a breast pump and use your insurance benefits to order one ahead of time. Prenatal care is offered in office or virtually.

From the first latch to your last pump, we support you with expertise and genuine care.

Classes & community

More than a class. It’s a community.

Happily Baby After is our weekly support group for mothers and babies 3 months and younger. It’s a place to go each week that isn’t home and isn’t a doctor’s office, led by a skilled lactation provider, where you’ll get feeding guidance and make friends whose babies are close in age to yours.

Our four prenatal classes help you prepare before baby arrives, from the basics of breastfeeding to colostrum collection and pump education.

Pumps & equipment

Breast pumps and support, all under one roof

From expert education to trusted equipment, we have what you need to feel confident on your pumping journey. Our IBCLCs help you choose an effective, comfortable pump for your body, your lifestyle, and your goals, whether that is an insurance-covered personal pump, a hospital-grade rental, or an upgrade that simply works better for you.

We rent hospital-grade pumps and offer personalized pump education in office or virtually. Pick up your pump in office, have it shipped, or schedule in-home delivery.

What we help with

Care for the feeding challenges that bring families in.

Breastfeed Atlanta evaluates and treats the full range of feeding challenges, from low milk supply and painful latch to mastitis, tongue tie, slow weight gain, and pumping problems. As a multi-specialty practice with nurse practitioners who can prescribe, we treat the cause, not just the symptom, and coordinate care beyond our scope when it is needed.

Low milk supply

We look for why supply is low, from latch and feeding frequency to medical causes like insulin resistance, and build a plan around your goals.

Oversupply and engorgement

Too much milk, painful fullness, or forceful letdown. We help you bring supply into balance and ease the discomfort safely.

Painful latch and sore nipples

Pain means something needs adjusting, not something to push through. We assess the latch, find the cause, and treat what we find.

Mastitis and clogged ducts

Treated in office with the right tools, including antibiotics when they are needed and therapeutic ultrasound, so you are not routed to urgent care.

Persistent nipple or breast pain

Often blamed on “thrush,” lingering pain is usually something else: dermatitis, a milk bleb, vasospasm, or subacute mastitis. We pinpoint the real cause and treat it.

Tongue tie concerns

We assess whether tongue or lip anatomy is affecting the latch, coordinate a release with a specialist when it is warranted, and support feeding afterward.

Slow weight gain

When baby is not gaining as expected, we look at milk transfer, supply, and feeding patterns together, and coordinate with your pediatrician when needed.

Flange fit and pumping problems

The wrong flange size and pump settings cause most pumping pain and low output. We measure your fit and build a routine that works for your day.

Not sure which one fits? Book a visit and we will sort it out together.

Support at every stage

We’re here for the whole journey, not just the first week.

Feeding changes as your baby grows. So does the kind of help you need.

  1. Prenatal preparation

    Know what to expect, set up your space, and start with confidence instead of uncertainty.

  2. The first days

    Latch, positioning, and reassurance in the tender early stretch when everything is new.

  3. Finding your rhythm

    Supply, comfort, and a feeding routine that starts to feel like it fits your days.

  4. Pumping and back to work

    Get the right pump through your insurance benefits, build a pumping routine that fits your day, and let MilkCrate keep the flanges and replacement parts you need on hand, so feeding keeps going through a big change.

  5. Weaning with care

    A gentle, gradual wind‑down on your timeline, comfortable for you and your baby.

What families say

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.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions families ask us most, from insurance and referrals to what we treat.

Is a lactation consultation covered by insurance?
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.
Does Medicaid cover lactation consultant visits at Breastfeed Atlanta?
Yes. Breastfeed Atlanta is in-network with every Georgia Medicaid CMO, including Amerigroup, CareSource, Peach State, and Molina. Lactation visits and services are covered with no copay, no balance billing, and no surprise fees for our Medicaid patients.
Do I need a referral from my pediatrician or OB?
No. You can book directly with us. After your visit, we send a clinical note to your pediatrician and OB so everyone stays informed about your care.
Do you offer in-home lactation consultant visits?
Yes, on a limited basis. In-home lactation consultant visits are for newborns under 1 month, by arrangement, inside the perimeter and in close northern suburbs. Most commercial plans cover them; Medicaid does not. Text us to check whether your address qualifies. When it does, we come to your home so you can focus on feeding your baby in the space where you’ll actually be doing it.
Do you offer virtual lactation consultations?
Yes. Our virtual lactation consultations are available with the same clinical team. Also called telehealth lactation visits, they’re well-suited for follow-ups, supply concerns, pumping questions, and anything where a hands-on exam isn’t required. Virtual visits are typically covered by insurance.
What makes Breastfeed Atlanta different from a typical lactation consultant?
Most lactation practices are consultant-only. They can identify clinical issues but refer out for treatment. Breastfeed Atlanta is a multi-specialty practice where most of our nurse practitioners are dual-credentialed as both NPs and IBCLCs, and our care is overseen by board-certified physicians, including a specialist in breastfeeding and lactation medicine. 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.
Can you help with tongue tie?
Yes. Our patient-facing team includes IBCLCs and nurse practitioner IBCLCs who 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. Complex cases benefit from consultation with our physician specialist in breastfeeding and lactation medicine.
What conditions does Breastfeed Atlanta treat?
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, text or call us at (404) 454-9715 to discuss.
How quickly can I get a lactation consultation?
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. Text or call us at (404) 454-9715 to discuss timing for your specific situation.
What is a lactation specialist?
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, most of our patient-facing nurse practitioners are dual-credentialed as both NPs and IBCLCs, and our care is overseen by board-certified physicians, including a specialist in breastfeeding and lactation medicine. The breadth of credentials lets us match clinical depth to the complexity of your situation.
How much does a lactation consultation cost?
For most patients, lactation consultations at Breastfeed Atlanta are covered by insurance with no out-of-pocket cost. 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.
What does a prenatal lactation consultation include?
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.
