Nourish Lactation • Bend, Oregon

When you come to see us, feeding your baby is the priority. Our work also extends beyond feeding itself.

Sometimes that looks like helping a baby feed more effectively. Other times it means supporting a mother through exhaustion, uncertainty, recovery, overwhelm, or the challenges of a new season of life. Physical health matters, mental health matters, and learning to understand and respond to the baby you have matters.

Nourishment is more than ounces, breastmilk, weight gain, freezer stashes, and feeding plans. It is the care and connection that allows families to grow, heal, thrive, and feel settled.

We truly believe that feeling supported and understood can make a life changing difference. Rule #1 is Feed The Baby; supporting you is part of it, too!

Thriving babies begin with supported mothers ♡

Breastfeeding, Pumping & Infant Feeding

Lactation Appointments are as unique as you and your baby. We will spend an hour reviewing your birth story, health history and any concerns about feeding your baby that you, your OB/Midwife or your Pediatrician may be having.

Body tension can significantly impact feeding experiences for both baby and caregiver, whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding. When tension builds up in the body, it can lead to discomfort and hinder the natural flow of the feeding process. Working with our Physical Therapist (and learning the secrets of Tummy Time) that is trained to understand infant feeding can help answer many questions about why feeding your baby is frustrating.

Northwest Mother’s Milk Bank is a Tigard, Oregon nonprofit improving health and safety for vulnerable infants. Human milk reduces risks for preterm babies; when breastfeeding isn’t possible, pasteurized donor milk can be lifesaving.

Approved donors may drop off milk at our milk drop; we freeze and secure donations before transfer to the milk bank.

  • “Brooke is the best there is! I went to Brooke with my first baby and now back with my second. She is kind and compassionate. She has made my breastfeeding journey one to remember. From tongue ties to DMER she is knowledgeable and will find a way to help. Brooke has made me feel confident as a breastfeeding momma and has given me the tools to do so! You will not be disappointed and 100% should go and see Brooke! Nourish Lactation is the best!”

  • ”Beyond happy with our lactation visits. Brooke was absolutely essential to our breastfeeding success and I do not know what we would have done without her. Breastfeeding hurt, my baby was gassy and spitty and we were told by some that 'everything looked fine'. As someone in the medical field, I thought she was a perfect balance of clinical and friendly. Thank you, Brooke for doing this work.”

  • “If you are dreading your lactation appointment like I was put all your worries aside! Brooke is not here to judge your feeding methods she is here to help make your feeding methods work best for you and baby. She is full of tons of helpful information that I didn't even see coming. By far, one of the best experiences I have ever had with a lactation consultant. She reassured me that moms mental health is just as important as feeding your little one. 10/10!”

  • “Brooke is THE BEST! She helps so much. My baby was tongue tied and she has struggled with breast feeding, with Brooke’s help we haven’t had to give up! For that I’m super thankful!”
