Let's Get Started

Client Love

"I had a very long labor and just about nothing went as I’d hoped or planned. But having Shonte’ there gave me a calm and peace of mind that I genuinely needed. She never left my side through the entire process; making sure I was nourished, giving me back rubs, dancing, encouraging me throughout. She was a godsend, my birth angel. If it wasn’t for her I don’t believe I would have been able to have my natural, med free, home birth! Shonte’ also taught me everything I would need to know to breastfeed my little one and is an incredible resource for all of my questions. And she continues to check in on me and my family! She goes above and beyond. Of all the things you can spend your money on to welcome your baby into this world, really nothing is nearly as important. I highly recommend her for your doula and lactation service needs!"

Alyssa Rodgers

"I cannot recommend Shonte’ from YOLO highly enough. First, her expertise in all things breastfeeding related is unparalleled. Shonte’ diagnosed my daughter’s tongue-tie immediately, a diagnosis that had been missed repeatedly by several pediatricians. Shonte’s knowledge base is remarkable, offering evidence-based and up-to-date information. However, the things that makes YOLO Breastfeeding stand out is Shonte’ herself. Her personable and compassionate personality radiates through from the second you meet her. What can be an uncomfortable situation for new moms is met with understanding and grace. Shonte’ continued to follow-up long after our initial consultation and quickly became a meaningful member of my new-mother support system. I feel blessed that I was able to work with Shonte’ and YOLO Breastfeeding and wish the same experience for anyone seeking a lactation consultant."
