Susan Howlett, M.A., IBCLC
Welcome to Maternal Infant Lactation Consulting.
I am an IBCLC certified Lactation Consultant with over 20 years of experience.
I can help with breastfeeding issues at any stage of your breastfeeding journey.
I offer private breastfeeding support at home visits in Peterborough, Lindsay, and surrounding areas by booking at milc.help ($90.00 fee required). Book through the Home Visit link on the main page. No referral is required.If you have any private insurance coverage, lactation services may be reimbursed.
I also offer virtual and clinic visits through the Ontario Breastfeeding Clinic
The in-person clinic visits are located at the Peterborough and Lindsay midwives clinics.
See the OBC website for details regarding fees; private-pay or a partial OHIP subsidy. A referral is required from you midwife, family physician, or NP for the subsidy.
Please note that I will only be doing home visits through the Maternal Infant Lactation Consulting link. I have opted out of the Ontario Breastfeeding Clinic Private Pay home visit option.
