Jen Breuninger, B.s., IBCLC, CBS

Hi there! I’m so happy you’re exploring Feedology. You may be here because you’re expecting a baby or have recently met your little one and are in the throes of newborn feeding. Congratulations on where you are in your journey!

As an international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) and experienced mom of two, I will help you feel more calm, confident, and comfortable with your breastfeeding and bottle feeding rhythm.

My clients often emphasize my warmth and ability to put them at ease, as well as, my attentive listening and constant reassurance.

Creating a plan that works for you.

We believe every lactation and infant feeding journey is unique. We will work with you to provide personalized support to help you reach your goals - whether that’s offering breastmilk / human milk, formula, or a mix of both.

client testimonials

  • “Jen was so professional and took all the stress out of my life when my baby wouldn’t latch day 2 of us bringing him home. She showed us breastfeeding positions that worked for us and we’ve been sucessfully breastfeeding ever since. Jen is so knowledgeable. I highly recommend anyone with a newborn to reach out to her.”

    - Ashley

  • “Once baby arrived, Jen came to the rescue as I was in pain from feeding in those first few weeks plus my baby wasn't gaining enough weight. Not only did she help me figure out some better feeding techniques, she made me feel confident in my choice to supplement with formula. I'm so glad I had Jen as a resource during those early days of motherhood, the compassion and genuine care she provides is what sets her apart.”

    - Alexis

  • “Jen’s virtual support is phenomenal and she follows up with a written plan and information that I referred back to countless times. She is an invaluable resource from the prenatal stage all the way through weaning. At each stage, the care was so comprehensive and felt tailored to my goals and centered around me and my child. I feel very lucky to have worked with her!”

    - Aviva

  • “Jen is the absolute best! She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, supportive and non-judgmental. She helped me through two different feeding journeys with my two kids, and I always felt very supported by her. She listens to what your feeding goals are and helps you to make a plan to accomplish them.”

    -Katherine

  • “Jen’s intuition seemed to know exactly when I needed her most - even before I did. Her guidance, coaching and constant reassurance were invaluable. Knowing she was a phone call or text away brought a sense of calm and confidence to difficult moments in a very new experience. Highly recommend her to any new parent beginning their breastfeeding journey!”

    - Danielle

  • “I instantly felt at ease with Jen, and she gave me the exact encouragement and knowledge I needed on my breastfeeding journey. Highly recommend!”

    - Alexandra

  • “Jen is such a wonderful resource for breastfeeding and pumping mamas! Our newborn was struggling to latch and my milk supply was slow to come in due to a C Section birth, so we worked with her on a plan that was good for our family. Jen is super supportive and truly makes you feel comfortable at such a vulnerable time postpartum.”

    - Cassie

  • “I highly recommend Jen. She is truly a one-of-a-kind professional. She helped our family with so many things in a scary and challenging first months after giving birth. Jen helped me establish a good latch and understand my daughter’s hunger and sleeping queues. She always provided helpful information and videos and was there to answer any questions. She is also very kind and supportive, which helped me gain confidence in caring for my baby.”
