Postpartum Place
Lactation Consultants in Chatham, New Jersey
At Postpartum Place we are dedicated to helping new moms and their new borns. For over 20 years we have helped thousands of mothers with concerns related to their new babys. We offer personalized guidance with issues including discomfort, milk supply problems, sleep concerns, infant weight gain, starting solid foods, pumping and working and finally weaning.
We can help in many ways:
“I understand the frustration felt by mothers who have received contradictory and conflicting advice about breastfeeding and infant care.” states Maria Parlapiano RN, IBCLC, director of Postpartum Place. “That’s why I created my unique business over 20 years ago, dedicating myself to the empowerment of mothers through consistent education and understanding.” Known as the tri-state area’s leading experts in lactation and infant/mother care, we teach mothers how to:
- Achieve the best latch possible, supporting the mother so that she can repeat this on her own at home
- Tell the difference between a baby's sucking and actually getting milk
- Recognize early feeding cues and knowing when baby has really had enough
- Relax so that the mother and the baby may enjoy a relaxed and positive breastfeeding experience
In our warm and relaxed environment, we will listen to the mother, help diagnose her breastfeeding concerns, treat her pain or milk supply issues, and help her to prevent future problems.
"I would have paid any amount to get the reassurance and help that I did. We are so thankful for Maria’s expertise and support!"
