Lactation Services at The Birth Home

Congratulations on your newborn! It is one of the most amazing, yet vulnerable times in one’s life. If you are looking to get answers to any breastfeeding challenges you are facing, you have reached the right place. Having a baby that is not latching, questioning your milk supply or having sore nipples- is no fun! We have your back (literally too!). A lactation consult can help.

As a new parent, you may find it quite a task to get out and about with your newborn, so in addition to clinic consults, we also offer home visits, where we come to you.

You could avail our Lactation Lounge facility as well, where you come to The Birth Home with your baby and a support person to spend 4-8 hours with our consultant checking in on you, to help you gain the confidence and learn the necessary skills.

At The Birth Home, your baby and you are central to our care. We spend ample time with you, give you information and options to help you make an informed decision. We have regular follow-ups to see how you are doing.

To book a consult, call us : 8105233881/8088141924

We have a unique one-of-a-kind group practice so that we are available for you at most times. Our consultants are trained, experienced and have a deep passion to help you reach your goals.

Chetana Kulkarni has over 7 years of experience helping families with breastfeeding. She was one of the first few lactation experts who offered home visits in Bangalore. She has two adorable children and a super supportive partner. She has breastfed both her children, after overcoming multiple challenges both the times. She has personal experience with preterm breastfeeding with her older one and adoptive breastfeeding with her younger one. Through her personal and professional experiences, she’s gained a lot of insight and strongly believes that breastfeeding problems have breastfeeding solutions.

Sapna Krishnan realised that she was passionate about lactation through her experiences with breastfeeding her daughter. They shared a 3 year nursing relationship which lead to natural term weaning. General lack of awareness and support amongst new families is what lead Sapna into the field of lactation in 2016. A supportive husband and an understanding 5 year old are her pillars of strength. Over the years, she has assisted many families through consultations and breastfeeding education classes. Sapna cannot emphasise enough on seeking immediate help in case of any breastfeeding challenges. Do not wait for it to get worse!

When Anagha Narasimhan learnt that she was pregnant, she focused on researching and learning about the pregnancy and birth. Having seen a close relative breastfeed both her children, seemingly without challenges, she felt breastfeeding would come naturally to her and her baby. It was when she faced challenges after her baby’s birth that she was introduced to the world of lactation support. In her ongoing 3.5 year breastfeeding journey, with an extremely supportive spouse, she has gone on to be an administrator on an online breastfeeding support group and then a Certified Lactation Educator Counselor. She believes strongly in advocating for babies and parents, most importantly that the needs of the breastfeeding parent is as significant as the baby’s.
