After working with multiple lactation consultants through the hospital me and babe were still having quite a few issues breastfeeding. I finally found Bre and I am so thankful I did. She helped us diagnose, treat and work through my sons oral ties as well as educate us on how to help his reflux. She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to breastfeeding and babies. I also love the fact that she can help give suggestions for more natural approaches prior to trying medicines. We probably would have given up on our breastfeeding journey by now if it weren't for Bre and all of her help. read more

Bethany is absolutely wonderful! Her breastfeeding knowledge is incredibly vast and I learned so much from our session. I had to go out of town without my son for 24 hours (he was 6 weeks at the time - crazy I know) and was unsure how to go about stocking up my breastmilk and introduce a bottle to him. Bethany came up with a plan of action and although I was nervous, the day went flawlessly. He took to the bottle, had plenty of milk and has had no trouble breastfeeding since. Her follow up emails were super thorough and filled with a ton of information that I continue to reference. She has kept in touch since our appointment and it's clear that she has a genuine interest in her clients' well being and success. I'm so grateful for her and couldn't recommend her enough. If you need a lactation consultant, Bethany is the BEST. read more

I have nothing but praises to sing about Bre!! She is one of the most down to earth, wholesome, and caring individuals I know. She is wise beyond her years and a genuine good person. She is not only good at her profession but she is a very intentional and educated being. I'd recommend her services to anyone 100x over! Thank you for being you, Bre! read more

Breanna was amazing! This is my first child and I was super nervous about the breastfeeding journey. From my initial inquiry, she was super knowledgeable and responsive. My son came early and although she is pretty booked, she was able to accommodate coming to my home within a few days after I was released from the hospital. I decided to exclusively pump and she helped me set up a schedule for that along with practicing nursing positions in case I decide to do so in the future. A great piece of the visit was being taught calming poses, which has been very helpful. We are currently 5 weeks in and my son is thriving on my breast milk. I definitely recommend The Mama Mantra to help with the lactation process! read more

Amanda was absolutely amazing! She really listened to my concerns and worked with my comfort levels to help find a breastfeeding path that worked for me and my baby, by the end of the appointment I was crying happy tears! After the appointment she sent me a detailed list of everything we discussed and added in a bunch of resources to refer to, which have been so helpful. I'm already scheduling my follow up home visit with her! read more

We couldn't be more grateful to Bethany for coming to our home this week. She was amazing! Over a few hours, she covered everything with such attention to detail, care and compassion. We learned so much and really upped our breastfeeding game because of her knowledge. I can't think of a single thing that would have made the experience better. Afterwards, she sent a thorough email with everything we talked about, including lots of helpful video links. I felt really capable and supported afterwards, and would recommend Mama Mantra to anyone who needs even a little bit of help. Thank you! read more

The Mama Mantra - Lactation Services Near Me - Acworth, Georgia

I've had two babies with latching issues - I gave up on breastfeeding with the first after encountering every issue possible (mastitis, thrush, cracks and bleeding) and probably would've done the same for my second if not for Bre. She saw that my second had tongue tie on top of having issues with proper suction. She physically examined my baby instead of just looking at the latch like the hospital LCs (who all told me I had a good latch even though it was super painful) and gave us exercises to do to help my baby get better at latching. She is super knowledgeable, patient, and a wonderful teacher. She even gives email summaries and video links so you can review what you talked about when you inevitably forget. I can't recommend her enough!!! read more

If I could give Breanna more than 5 stars, I would! She is very passionate and knowledgeable in what she does. She does it well. She makes you feel comfortable and listens to what you have to say. She is patient, kind, and thorough to the point where I didn't even have any questions to ask her at the end of our session. All her tips have helped breastfeeding more comfortable and easier. Thank you Bre! I would HIGHLY recommend Breanna. read more

We had our follow up session today and again we were very impressed with her depth of knowledge and compassion on the topic as well as overall good baby care tips. I would highly recommend utilizing her services. It's amazing how much there is to learn and some education backed guidance and can help immensely! read more

I reached out to Breanna in October 2017 after my little girl was born since we were having trouble with her latching. Breanna was so kind, patient and offered a ton of great advice. I had her over twice and was very grateful for her help and dedication to my situation. Breastfeeding didn't end up working out for me long term due to low milk supply and having to return to work after only 7.5 weeks (boo!!!) but I was still so grateful to find someone so loving who was willing to help. She's amazing and deserves all the ATX awards! read more

There are simply not enough things I could say to express how endlessly grateful I am to have found Breanna. Every once in a while in motherhood, if you're lucky, you come across someone that has helped you that you will forever remember. This is Bre for me. Her ability to remain professional while meeting you on a mom to mom level is amazing, and so important in her field of work. Before we even met, she gave me the confidence to follow my intuition in seeking another dentist's opinion regarding my son's ties. When we met post revision, she went above and beyond to work on positioning, show me different massage and suck training techniques, and so much more. Her confidence is contagious and she truly is one of a kind. She is worth her weight in gold and you won't regret hiring her! read more

Breanna was and still is absolutely amazing! She was so helpful before our baby arrived and still is now that he is here and whenever I have a question about breastfeeding, she makes herself available to answer any question that I had! I learned so much from her and she gave me so much confidence in approaching breastfeeding. I was originally so nervous about being able to breastfeed because of all the misinformation that's out there. But Breanna not only restored my faith in myself but also also made my transition back home from the hospital that much easier. I cannot recommend them more for first time moms like myself or for anyone who is hesitant about breastfeeding! What a wonderful company and such an indispensable resource for all moms. read more

Bre and Bethany changed our lives! A week after my baby was born I was struggling with feeding her and felt exasperated! None of the information I received from the hospital staff helped. Bre and Bethany came to our house and gave us customized care that actually worked! I booked a follow up appointment three days later which helped build on the initial consult. I honestly could not have achieved a productive breastfeeding schedule without The Mama Mantra. read more

Quick review update: I reached out to Breanna again to ask for advice about improving my supply. I'm pumping and I wasn't producing more than 2 oz at a time. She promptly sent a bunch of resources and now my supply is up to about 5 oz! Baby girl can quit formula now. Her services are definitely worth it. read more

Bethany came to our house for an in-home consultation and it was such a blessing. I was probably a day or two away from giving up on breastfeeding before receiving her help. She provided tons of great information, thoroughly evaluated my baby's anatomy for any potential issues such as a tongue tie, explained all of my pumping equipment and how to use it, showed me some new nursing positions to try, and most importantly helped me with a proper latch to end the excruciating nursing sessions. She was prompt, kind, personable, and supportive. She sent tons of digital resources to reference as well. It has been a week since our appointment and breastfeeding has been going so so so much better. I would recommend any struggling moms definitely reach out before giving up breastfeeding! read more

Bre was extremely professional, while you felt like you could chat with her on anything baby. She was the one who helped diagnose my daughter with tongue and lip tie, and provided me with a wonderful referral to a pediatric dentist. She was able to show me ways to cope and continue with baby girls healing after the procedure. Hands down the reason I'm still breastfeeding. We were in such a funk before she came in and offered us some simple and doable solutions. Her knowledge and network are invaluable. Thanks Mama Mantra- you will he referred to allllll my pregnant friends read more

I called Breanna for help after my son has his tongue tie clipped and wouldn't latch. She came over the next day, and spent 2 hours with me and the baby, listening to my concerns, showing my different techniques and holds for breast feeding and showing me exercises for the baby's tongue that would ensure he didn't get scar tissue from the procedure. By the end of the two hours, he had latched on and I was able to get the baby to latch again right after she left. After that, I no longer had any issues getting the baby to latch, and was relieved that Breanna helped me solve the problem. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing and LC! read more

I was super stressed out with latch issue and nipple pain that I was ready to quit breast feeding when I contacted The Mama Mantra. Bethany came out to my home for a visit and was absolutely amazing. So knowledgeable, patient, and warm. She helped me get on the right track and followed up with me numerous times after her visit. I highly recommend The Mama Mantra for any struggling mama's out there!! Thank you, Bethany! read more

I was referred to Bre by my midwife and was super grateful for her assistance during a stressful and vulnerable time. She is super knowledgeable and relays information very effectively. She also takes into account the mother's and family's values and needs when making recommendations. Oh and her follow up and responsiveness are amazing! All of her suggestions have helped and I'm successfully nursing my 8 month medically-complicated baby! So grateful! read more

Breanna is fantastic. She is friendly, knowledgeable, patient and extremely thorough. I was on the verge of giving up breastfeeding before Breanna helped me fix some latching issues and better understanding my newborn's feeding cues (versus gas pains). read more

I can honestly say that I would have given up and weaned off had I not had the courage to reach out to Bre with The Mama Mantra. She was responsive, patient and knowledgeable. She provided sited resources for all of the information that she shared with me. She gave practical and realistic solutions and more importantly, she helped transform breastfeeding from something that came with guilt, anxiety and pain to a beautiful bonding time that I look forward to with my little girl. I don't see an end in sight! Thank you!!! read more

Bre is an amazing lactation consultant, professional and breastfeeding/mom champion. She has now helped me on my breastfeeding journey with both of my children. She made me feel comfortable and positive about my breastfeeding journey. She is very attentive, takes her time to get to know you and your little ones needs, as well as ensures you have all the resources you need to ensure a successful breastfeeding experience. I can not recommend her enough! She truly saved my breastfeeding journey with my first and has enabled me to continue this journey with my second child. Thanks a million! read more

Breanna is an amazing LC and helped to quickly diagnose my baby's tongue and lip ties and bubble palate (when our pediatrician and LC at the hospital did not). She recommended a preferred dentist to do revisions and worked with me tirelessly on compensations for my little girls issues. When the revisions scarred and reattached, she went as far as ordering a special nipple shield from Germany that worked better with the shape of my baby's mouth so that we could continue to breastfeed despite our challenges. Breanna is very knowledgeable about all issues related to breastfeeding- recommending great galactagogues and helping me to set a nursing, pumping, supplementing schedule to both protect my supply and help my little one gain weight. Twelve months of nursing, and we are still going strong! Breanna is absolutely wonderful, and I highly recommend her!! read more

Breanna is a lifesaver! After delivering a few weeks early and having a baby with a slight tongue tie, I was having issues with getting baby to successfully bf. I can't thank Breanna enough for her knowledge and support. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for some breastfeeding assistance. read more

I tell you what, I was in a terrible place when I reached out to breanna but she came and did a home visit and gave me some great tips and tricks and recommended some awesome items that help me get back to a better place and believing I can continue my breastfeeding journey with my babygirl. She's so sweet and I'm soooooooo glad that I found her and have her to help us through this journey. She responds to the multiple questions I have daily right away!!! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Breanna!! She is the best! She instantly made me feel comfortable and put my fears and anxieties to rest. Breastfeeding was such a stressful and foreign thing and it really helped to have such an expert there to guide me and give me so much valuable information. It was so great to have in home consultations and have her always available via call/text to answer any questions I had after. She is so sweet, patient and knowledgeable and really worked with me to come up with a plan that worked for me instead of pushing any sort of breastfeeding agenda. I would highly recommend her (and have) to anyone! read more

Organized, on time, thorough, knowledgeable and personable. I am so glad I scheduled an appointment with Bre after having some feeding concerns with my 4 month old. She made some excellent suggestions to help us get her to eat (nurse and bottle/cup feed) more. She then followed up to ensure everything was going smoothly. I wish I knew her during that crazy time when both my children were nursing newborns! I recommend reaching out to her if you are looking for help navigating the often complex process of feeding an infant. She is very helpful, and immediately provided a super bill as my insurance company agreed beforehand to reimburse me for appointments. Thank you so much Mama Mantra! read more

I love Breanna! She is the best LC I've ever worked with, and that's saying something since we've worked with well over a dozen LCs between hospital LCs and ones we've worked with outside the hospital. She is kind, encouraging, professional, sweet, funny, and incredibly supportive. Oh, and the information she shares is timely and in depth. She is the best resource a nursing mom can have, and I can't recommend her highly enough. read more

As a new mom, breastfeeding can be extremely overwhelming. I contacted Brianna after a week of being home from hospital and needing reassurance that I was doing things right. The consultation was easy to book, she was great with communication and having her come to my own home was a plus. The tips I learned were extremely beneficially to soothing my baby, and the information I learned gave me the confidence I needed to make sure I was feeding my baby properly. It's worth your time to book her if you are a new mom and needing reassurance it need some guidance. read more

The Mama Mantra is So great! I'm inducing lactation and Breanna has been wonderful! I'm in the beginning stages but have received a lot of helpful information read more

Breanna is an amazing person and lactation consultant. She was highly recommended by my doula group, and I'm so very happy she was. Breanna is extremely knowledgeable and able to convey it in a friendly and helpful manner. She recognized my LO's tongue and lip tie even though LCs in the hospital missed both. She's willing to tailor nursing plans to your and baby's needs, and change them as circumstances change too. My husband and I were so impressed with her professionalism and humanity. My only regret is not contacting her sooner. read more

We had a great experience! I would recommend her to anyone. We had lots of issues but Mama Mantra was amazing!

A good friend referred Bre to me. I had heard of her because she had done some instruction on breastfeeding at my mama and me fitness studio and also sponsored a mom's day out event in Austin that my friend was the event planner for. I love that she's involved with the community in Austin and has a great reputation for her ability to help new moms. Overall I had a wonderful experience. I opted to use her instead of the wonderful lactation consultants at my pediatrician office because after 2 sleepless nights where he couldn't latch, I really preferred having an in home consultation where I could be comfortable and have access to my nursing pillows, pump, bottles, etc. to take advantage of the full consultation, which is about 2 hours long. We were able to fix the latching issue and she showed me several techniques that have really helped me. It put my mind at ease to be able to do a weighted feed and see that my son was in fact getting plenty of milk! I have seen many lactation consultants between issues with both of my sons and I found Bre to be the most helpful and most comfortable to work with. I was never rushed at all and she was extremely thorough at the appointment and gave me followup documentation and a referral for a consult for lip and tongue tie. I've already passed along her information to some of my friends that are expecting. read more

I am so thankful to have met Breanna! After the birth of my daughter I had a traumatic experience trying to breastfeed her. She lost so much weight her first week of life, I had to start bottle-feeding her and I resorted to exclusively pumping for the first month. After her weight stabilized and she started eating better, I was very hesitant to try the breastfeeding thing again. My doula said I would need a lot of support, as the transition can be hard. So she referred me to Breanna. At our first meeting, my daughter was a month old and immediately Breanna found a mild posterior tongue-tie, which can significantly affect the baby's latching. I couldn't believe that this wasn't noticed by any of the several lactation consultants and pediatricians who had seen her either in the hospital and/or pediatricians office. She recommended tongue-strengthening exercises to help in addition to other breastfeeding support videos. Everyday nursing started getting easier and my confidence increased. I had the goal of breastfeeding exclusively for the first year so I purchased a package with Breanna for guidance throughout the year. She helped me optimize pumping by having recommendations on pumping frequency and how to keep milk supply up. And then when I wanted to wean, she offered me a plan on how to decrease in order to keep my breasts comfortable. Thankfully I never got clogs or mastitis. During all my visits with Breanna, she was warm, friendly and very easy to talk with and obviously very knowledgeable. I felt she genuinely listed to my specific concerns and needs and within the next day provided me a detailed, customized care plan of what I needed to do. Currently my daughter is about to turn 13 months and we are still breastfeeding. I truly believe the success of my breastfeeding journey is all due to Breanna. I will be forever grateful for Breanna and highly recommend her to anyone who is breastfeeding!! read more

Bre is really amazing. I feel so fortunate that we met her while recovering in the hospital. She's been an invaluable resource as we work our way through some breastfeeding issues (tongue and lip tie) with my son. More than that, she understands the challenges of being a new Mum and provides incredible emotional support - far more than I'd ever have expected from my lactation consultant. She goes above and beyond and makes you feel so comfortable then entire time. Thank you, Bre! read more

Breanna was such a huge help! First of all, she was very quick to respond, I received a call back from her within an hour and she scheduled an in home visit with me the next day. Then when she got here, I was so impressed by her knowledge on breastfeeding. She was able to help me with my over supply by suggesting and showing me different positions to breastfeed and also helped me with my latch. She gave me so many tips while she was here and followed up with our plan of action and continued to follow up and stay in touch with my additional questions. An added bonus is her lovely personality. She immediately put me at ease. Her services were not in my network to get reimbursed for insurance, but she was still totally worth the money. I would recommend her to anyone not sure about how your breastfeeding is going, or if your having issues, you will learn something from her I promise. read more

I can't say enough good things about Breanna! My baby was born back in May and without help from Breanna I would've given up on breastfeeding long ago. I had a terrible time in the beginning with very painful nursing sessions and a baby with a lip/tongue tie and recessed chin. Breanna came to my house several times to help me with latch issues, provide moral support, and teach me how to train my baby to suck properly. Not only that, but she responded to every text and email with kind words and helpful suggestions. With her help and a little bit of perseverance I'm now exclusively breastfeeding my babe pain free! If you think you may need the help of an LC, don't wait, just call Breanna now. You absolutely will not regret it. read more

Bre was so sweet to work with I couldn't have asked for a better consultation. She is so knowledgeable and made herself readily available for questions or concerns. She helped me and my baby boy get back on track after the first couple of nights at home. We hit a road block and she helped us surpass that and so far baby boy is back on track and his weight is back up. Don't hesitate to work with her, she is a doll! read more

Breanna and her team are an absolute delight. The challenges of breastfeeding seemed insurmountable but Breanna was amazing and made all the issues seem both normal and able to overcome. She offered new position options, explained things clearly and easily, and made the experience more relaxed overall. I had her come back a second time and found myself looking forward to seeing her! read more

I gave birth about a week ago, and breastfeeding was painful and not going too well. I contacted Breanna of The Mama Mantra via a voicemail and her website. She got back to me right away - which I was impressed and appreciated her timely communication. And although she had family in town, she made arrangements to meet me the next morning. Breanna is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, answered all my questions and proved to be a great support. My baby and I are on are way to improving our breastfeeding thanks to her help! I highly recommend The Mama Mantra! read more
