instead of focusing on the root cause they insisted on alternate solutions like pumping formula etc etc.

I recently received help from Teresa, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment we…read morebegan working together, she was compassionate, empathetic, and incredibly knowledgeable. Breastfeeding my second child didn't come as naturally as it did with my first, and I was feeling desperately discouraged. She immediately put me at ease and guided me through positioning and latch techniques that made an enormous difference. What truly set her apart, though, was her responsiveness and dedication. When I noticed the early signs of mastitis, she dropped everything to support me. She gave me the exact steps I needed to take within those crucial first hours, and thanks to her guidance, I was able to get ahead of the issue quickly. Her support has been invaluable, and I'm so grateful for the care and expertise she provided. If you're struggling or simply need reassurance on your breastfeeding journey, she is absolutely the person you want by your side.

She provided quality care in the comfort of our home. She was professional and understanding. She answered all of my questions (as a first time mom) and never made me feel as though what I was asking was silly or obvious! My son is now fully breastfed and we owe a great deal of that to Teresa's expertise and patience! I would highly recommend her to anyone that feels like something isn't clicking when it comes to breastfeeding! Thank you, Teresa!

The relief of having donor milk for my newborn baby girl has been such a blessing .

L O G I S T I C S: -you will be phone screened, then you will need to have your doctor sign off on your health history and then get bloodwork done. If you have Kaiser, the bank can reach out to the medical records department on your behalf. The bloodwork was very, very quick. I was able to choose from several lab locations that were within a 15 minute drive, the closest being in San Jose and 8 minutes from my house. I made an appointment, was seen very quickly, and my results were delivered to the milk bank about 3 business days later. The appointment itself took about 4 minutes. -you will be sent a cooler once you reach 100 ounces. -you will reach out to the shipping company they provide the morning of or day of you want to have your milk picked up. They give you a two hour time slot. I was pleased that I was able to email the company on a Sunday night and then have my email answered Monday morning (since the company is based on the east coast, I woke up to a reply). -you pack up your milk and-IF you're in Santa Clara County-you can literally hand it off to a FedEx driver who rings your doorbell G O O D T O K N O W: -I was able to fit about 211 ounces of milk into the styrofoam cooler that the bank provided. So, if you pump more than that, you may have to send some of the milk as a second donation batch. -The milk bank will take milk that was expressed up to 9 months ago. While I realize that 9 months is still a long time to express milk, it is encouraging to know that you don't need to pump the minimum requirement (100 ounces) instantly. -The bank's website has some very valuable breastfeeding info I wish I had learned sooner! -Staff was very friendly and usually quick to reply. O T H E R: -If you are on the fence about donating, I strongly encourage you to do so! Breastmilk is such an incredible way to give back and improve the health of others. I feel so blessed to have donated in such an impactful way! -My only critique is that it would be nice to have gotten a tracking number for my milk; I would have loved to known when it arrived at the bank so that I could rest assured my precious donation arrived on time. However, the bank did email me the next day, so I did get a confirmation in the end. -If you want to do recurring donations, the bank can provide extra milk bags.

However, we found out during our first few pediatrician visits that our baby was actually losing weight instead of gaining the expected 1oz/day. Baby was latching, but constantly kept falling asleep at the breast and thus wasn't eating as much as she needed to. Our pediatrician recommended Debra as a local lactation consultant and we couldn't be happier! Debra was very easy to connect with and she has honestly been a life saver. From the first moment we exchanged messages she was so helpful, thorough and enthusiastic and supportive. Before even meeting Debra in person we had a FaceTime session with her and she immediately saw a few issues with the way we were breastfeeding and gave us real time instructions/tips on how to improve latching/feeding and they worked! After our first in-person meeting with Debra, she drafted up a game plan for us for a baby feeding "boot camp" where we needed to temporarily supplement breast milk with formula both via bottle feeding in order to get the baby's weight up so she'd stay awake during breastfeeding. She walked us through every step and was so responsive to texts and the portal at all hours of the day. Debra kept following up to see how things were going and she does not give up! She was so optimistic, persistent, and determined for my wife to start producing more milk and to breastfeed more easily and low and behold after two VERY HELPFUL sessions we pretty much are there! Debra is like an encyclopedia of knowledge and has the best positive attitude. She answered all our questions and concerns very honestly and was very straight forward, but always remaining positive and realistic. We wouldn't know where we would be without her! If you are having issues with breastfeeding look no further! Reach out to Debra and we guarantee you'll be beyond satisfied like we were!

I found Lazara through a Google search & what sold me was the fact she was highly recognized by the mama flow owner (the prenatal/postnatal yoga/sculpt studio) & that entire community. Lazara & her team were extremely responsive through emails & text messages. I opted for an in-person visit & Lazara drove to my place. She respected our requests of taking her shoes off & wearing a mask in our home which we appreciated since our baby was 4 weeks at the time. She quickly resolved the breastfeeding challenges I experienced & the pumping questions I had & provided so much feedback & tips that I never read online (& still haven't stumbled upon online). We learned so much from her during her visit & she provided so many useful PDF resources & also invited me to be part of her baby tribe community where moms ask questions about breastfeeding. The knowledge Lazara shared was not limited to breastfeeding; she educated us about baby massages, postnatal supplements & mom & baby craniosacral facial therapy. Lazara is passionate, intelligent, helpful, kind, personable & funny. All that plus the fact she is a neonatal nurse at Stanford truly makes her one of the best lactation consultants to hire! (PS - i have united healthcare & her services were covered through there).

I'm so grateful to have found Lazara through the Aetna site. I had a very challenging breastfeeding journey with my first baby and even consulted with multiple lactation consultants. This time, I wanted to avoid the same struggles and was determined to improve my experience. I wish I had found Lazara back then--it would have made my breastfeeding and pumping journey much smoother and more enjoyable early on. Lazara is not only a highly experienced and knowledgeable LC, but her 30+ years as a NICU nurse mean she has a deep understanding of everything related to babies. She evaluated far more aspects of my situation than the LCs I worked with a couple of years ago. She quickly provided numerous evidence-based suggestions, including methods, supplements, and more, to address my new challenges with my second baby. I saw improvements almost immediately with just one visit. She also offers sleep training and baby massage, which is such a wonderful bonus! Can't wait to have follow up appointment with her to have a successful breastfeeding journey this time.

Due to my privileged position, and very personal experience with Silicon Valley doulas, I can tell…read moreyou it has been nothing short of exceptional since their inception. Czarina brings over 20 plus years of experience, extensive training, and a true passion for supporting families through one of life's most meaningful transitions -- welcoming a new baby. Her background covers everything from lactation consulting and sleep training to postpartum depression and psychosis support, patient advocacy, birth preparation, and more. She's worked with over 300 families over her career thus far, providing truly personalized and compassionate care each and every time. Her depth of knowledge about the birth journey, babies, and the postpartum period is remarkable, and she always approaches her work with professionalism, empathy, and a calm confidence and experience. One thing I respect deeply is her clarity and integrity when it comes to her business policies. She has a no-refund policy that's clearly stated in her contract (which is completely legal and standard for her field). The reason is simple and fair, much like many other businesses she reserves specific dates and times for the families she assists and does not take other clients during those scheduled sessions. When someone cancels or tries to back out of a contract she's already set aside that time, so it's clearly ethical that her time and commitment are respected. If you're looking for a highly skilled, knowledgeable, compassionate, empathetic doula who combines unmatched experience, professionalism, and genuine care, Czarina is the person you want by your side through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

TL;DR: Last-minute cancellations, fell asleep on duty watching our newborn, refused hands-on baby…read morecare, offered useless virtual support, prepaid for 13 nights, and refused refund. We're disputing the charges with our credit card company. Do not recommend. We hired Czarina for evening doula services shortly after welcoming our newborn, hoping for support and rest. Unfortunately, the experience caused us significantly more stress than doing it alone. The most alarming issue was that she repeatedly fell asleep snoring loudly while on duty watching our newborn. This happened on multiple visits. We could see and hear her sleeping, which meant that instead of resting, we stayed awake monitoring her to ensure our baby was safe. When we addressed this directly, her response was shocking: she claimed she was doing it to "train us to be better parents" and get us used to sleeping while the baby sleeps. As exhausted first-time parents, this felt unreassuring and completely unsafe. We hired a night doula to reduce anxiety, not to monitor the caregiver. Beyond the safety issues, basic doula duties were neglected: * Refusal of Care: She was unwilling to help wash the baby and unable to provide clear, hands-on guidance for newborn care. * Household Help: She provided little to no assistance with basic household tasks. * Ineffective Virtual Support: She attempted to substitute some support with "virtual" sessions, which offered zero value to us as parents who needed physical, hands-on help with a newborn during overnight hours. Her reliability was poor, with multiple last-minute cancellations and rescheduling. Most importantly, we prepaid for 13 nights of service. When we terminated the arrangement due to the safety concerns and poor service, she refused to provide a refund for the unused nights. We were forced to escalate this to our credit card company to try and recoup our funds. Czarina was pleasant to speak with initially, but her actions put our peace of mind at risk and violated our trust. If you are looking for reliable, hands-on postpartum care that allows you to rest, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Ask specific questions about staying awake during night shifts, hands-on newborn care (including bathing), refund policies, and what "virtual support" entails before hiring.

From the very first appointment, she made me feel seen and heard -- not judged. She met me exactly where I was, acknowledged how hard things had been, and helped me understand what was going on in a way that finally made sense. Her warmth and patience created a safe space where I felt comfortable asking questions I was embarrassed to ask anyone else. What sets her apart isn't just her expertise (which is exceptional), it's the way she genuinely cares. She helped me reframe my entire relationship with breastfeeding -- turning something that had felt stressful and defeating into something I now cherish. I walked away from each session feeling more confident and more hopeful than I had in weeks. If you're struggling and feel like you've hit a wall, please reach out to Liz.

She does charge a travel fee separate from insurance which I didn't love but makes sense for an independent business owner.
