Lactation Consultant in Hartland & Fenton, Michigan | Lactation Loop IBCLC
Are you searching for a lactation consultant near you in Hartland or Fenton, Michigan? Lactation Loop's board-certified IBCLCs are here to help! We serve families throughout Livingston and Genesee County with in-home lactation consultant visits, in-office appointments at our nearby Brighton location, and virtual consultations — available 7 days a week, 9am to 8pm.
Breastfeeding is one of the most rewarding things a mother can do for her baby — but it doesn't always come easy. Whether you're a first-time mom navigating a difficult latch, an experienced mother dealing with low milk supply, or a family looking for guidance on pumping and returning to work, our IBCLCs are here to help.
Our Closest In-Office Location — Brighton at Whole Mama Michigan
Our Brighton IBCLCs are located inside Whole Mama Michigan at 10407 E Grand River Ave #600, Brighton, MI 48116 — Michigan's premiere holistic maternal wellness collaborative, where pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding support all come together under one roof. Our Founder, Jen Chivas, lives right next door in New Hudson, MI and is available to help at home, virtually or in the Brighton office. Heather Carnghi lives in Milford and can assist you at home, in the office or virtually. That kind of local connection matters especially during the postpartum period when familiarity and trust make all the difference.
In-home visits are also available throughout Hartland, Fenton, Linden, Holly, Grand Blanc, Tyrone Township, and surrounding communities for families who prefer support in their own space. Virtual consultations are available statewide across Michigan. We're available Monday through Sunday, 9am–8pm.
