I live in Gilbert and I second Debbie Gillespie 480 786-043! I love that woman. She is like family in my heart. I had twin girls my first pregnancy and was determined to make BF work for all of us. And it did for 6 months full time and 9 months total. Debbie was there for me several times over the course of that first year. She came to our home, we went to her office, and she was on email whenever I needed her.
Her scope went beyond simply BF. After we started baby foods, one of my girls was having trouble with food allergies or some unknown thing and Debbie was there to support. It became a very emotionally stressful time. '
I call her my baby Angel.
Enjoy, what a wonderful experience!
Debbie Gillespie ###-###-#### was great to work with, I worked with several unsuccessfully before I began working w/ Debbie. Best of luck to you!
Dear mom, don't know of any that does home visits, but tomorrow is the weekly breastfreeding support at Banner Desert in Mesa. Below is the contact information of the lead lactation consultant. She's great. Not sure of the exact time, I think it's at 1pm. Or you may contact La Leche League of Arizona. There are several chapters in the EV.
