“Maeve is truly a lactation angel! Friendly, knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate. She met me right where I was at and provided gentle guidance even for the things that were harder to hear. And equally as valuable to me as all of the practical tips and techniques, Maeve provided encouragement and reassurance which eased my worries. She helped me feel less alone in all of the seemingly irrational feeding guilt thoughts I had and helped me gain confidence in myself as a mother. I really appreciated knowing she was always there to answer any questions I had and gave me space and time when I needed her expertise.”

“I couldn't recommend Maeve enough. I can't put into words how much of a positive impact she made on my postpartum experience. She held so much space for my partner Pete and I as we navigated some significant feeding challenges. I always felt comfortable with Maeve coming to our home and better once she left. And she was always available for any last minute questions or SOS moments via the practice better app. It was a smooth, seamless process that made us more confident and happy parents!”

“Maeve is an incredibly knowledgeable professional who also has a gift with babies. My little one was pretty hard to settle for most people, but Maeve was able to meet her needs and settle her so that I could get some much needed rest. I trusted her and knew the baby was in good hands, and also really appreciated the household help, which made me feel a bit more grounded and resourced during the intensity of early postpartum.

The daytime support was great as that time can be so lonely, so not only did I know that someone was coming, I knew that I would have a break to do whatever it was I needed to do that day.

I also felt validated in so many things, and felt that Maeve knew so much but also kept things in check in terms of not being overbearing with information. She suggested helpful things that would help me get more sleep or save time, and always prioritized that.”

“We worked with Maeve for both lactation coaching and post-partum doula support. Working with her was truly one of the best decisions we made when preparing to welcome our twins. She met with me before the babies were born and gave me all of the coaching and information I needed to start my breastfeeding journey on the right foot. After the birth, she helped us through every question and challenge that came up, providing both practical and emotional support and ensuring that we had the care we needed to thrive as a new family of 4.
With Maeve’s help and guidance I was able to exclusively breastfeed our TWO babies for their first 5 months - something I didn’t think would be possible. She brought calm, warm, and loving energy to that very vulnerable post-partum period.
I honestly don’t know how we could have done it all without her. We still stay in touch and feel so lucky to have Maeve in our corner.”

-M.R.

"Maeve’s presence had such a huge impact in my life as a new mom and in our family’s. There is a confidence, openness, and ease in how she shows up and brings warmth into our home. This set the stage for a strong and trusting relationship as the basis for all feeding and postpartum support. She listened at each visit and in-between and responded with such care and thought, always open to brainstorming new options, offering resources, or suggesting slight changes.

Feeding my baby has been the hardest part of this parenting journey and we couldn’t imagine navigating it all without Maeve. She really brought such a sense of security, lightness, and comfort to our lives in one of the most vulnerable moments and we are forever grateful."

“I don’t have enough kind words to say about my experience working with Maeve after the birth of our daughter this year. She brings the perfect combination of warmth, direction, knowledge, and kindness to put a postpartum parent at ease and trust they are in good hands. The first few weeks feeding a new baby brings so many challenges. Maeve helped us troubleshoot different issues that arose and often reached out with ideas she had been thinking over and wanted to offer. She instilled in me the confidence to trust my intuition as a mother and gave me valuable tools to help me in my feeding journey.

One of the things I always recommend to an expecting parent is to have a lactation consultant lined up for postpartum. The value of someone who will come to your home cannot be understated  - especially in those early days when leaving the house feels like such an impossible feat. When she showed up on the first day, I thought to myself, "ok, Maeve's here, we are good." 

I cannot recommend Maeve enough! She meets you where you are, without judgment and truly wants to help you find the best path to feeding your baby."

- S.B.

“Maeve's approach was so supportive and encouraging, and also very informative and functional. She was so helpful to us. Our breastfeeding journey was feeling very overwhelming and we got the guidance and reassurance that we needed from Maeve. Her responsiveness over the Practice Better app was amazing. We can't say enough good things about Maeve! Great for any family in any phase of a lactation/feeding journey.”

-W.N.

"I worked with Maeve after the birth of my twins. I knew I wanted to breastfeed but also the challenge of feeding two was daunting. Thanks to Maeve's expertise and support, I tandem breastfed my twins for almost a year and a half. She is is compassionate and knowledgeable and I highly recommend!"
