Real talk? Sometimes you need some one-to-one support.

We’ll meet you where you are—physically, emotionally, and virtually.

Real talk? Breastfeeding is harder when your story is complex.

Maybe your body doesn’t follow the textbook. Maybe your mind is carrying a little extra. Maybe this isn’t your first time feeling let down by support that wasn’t built for you. We work with the moms who’ve been told “you’re just anxious” or “try harder” or “it shouldn’t hurt.” or y personal favorite, "we have literally never seen this before."

We see you—and we get it 'cause we're complicated too.

So HELL YES to you for seeking the support you need.

Our team of IBCLCs can help you navigate and troubleshoot any of these common struggles:

Latching

We’ll check your baby’s latch and help you make adjustments so you and your baby are happy.

Pumping

Not sure if you have the right size flange? Need help figuring out how often and how long to pump? We’ve got you covered.

Positioning

Who knew there were so many positions?? We’ll help you figure out the perfect one for you and baby at this stage!

Pain

Breastfeeding doesn’t have to be painful. Let us help you figure out what’s causing it and how to remedy it.

Weaning

Weaning impacts us physically, emotionally, and hormonally. We’d love to support you and your baby in this big transition.

Milk Supply

From questioning a low supply to navigating a heavy supply, we’ll walk you through how to find balance.

Nipple Confusion

Pacifiers, bottles, breasts, oh my! We can help you with your feeding goals, whatever kind of nipple that includes.

Clogs

Nothing will make you want to quit breastfeeding like mastitis and clogged ducts. It doesn’t have to be this way and we can help!

And the things no one connects to breastfeeding—like POTS, EDS, ADHD, birth trauma, anxiety, immune dysfunction, or allergy.

The stuff that makes feeding harder, and support even more essential.

Kelly, RN, BSN, IBCLC

I help parents untangle breastfeeding without the guilt, gaslighting, or glittery promises.
Founder of Boob School. Here for the messy middles, the complicated cases, and always bringing that protective big sister energy.
When I had my first baby, I thought I was prepared. I was a nurse, I’d done the research—but breastfeeding hit me hard. Tongue tie, cracked nipples, mastitis, and a deep sense of “why is no one talking about this?”

What I needed was real support that understood my reality—not just generic tips and checklists.

As someone living with POTS, EDS, ADHD, and a primary immune deficiency, I know what it’s like to navigate motherhood in a complex body.

That’s why I created The Balanced Boob—to support parents like me. The ones who aren’t “textbook,” who need more than a handout, and who deserve care that actually helps.

Bailie W, BS, IBCLC

I help babies latch, parents breathe, and Kelly remember where she put things.
Been here since the beginning. Still not tired of hearing about flanges.
As an IBCLC with a background in doula care, she offers families evidence-based guidance grounded in deep compassion and real-life experience.

She has a particular heart for supporting medically complex parents—because she lives in a beautifully complex body herself and knows how much that shapes the feeding journey.

Bailie has also been behind the scenes for every twist, spiral, and triumph of Boob School since the beginning. She knows this work—and Kelly’s brain—better than Kelly does most days, which makes her the perfect person to carry this mission forward with clarity, calm, and a healthy sense of humor.

From latch struggles to logistical chaos, Bailie meets every family where they are, with zero judgment and unwavering support.

If you’re like, “YES, PLEASE HELP ME!”

You’re in the right place. Our team of IBCLCs helps with all the feeding chaos—nipple pain, supply drama, latch confusion, and whatever fresh hell your pump is putting you through today.

“Really, Kelly? Virtual?”

I get it. It sounds a little weird, right? Like—how much can you actually help me without being in the room?

Answer: a lot.I’ve been doing almost exclusively virtual consults since 2020, and I’ve gotten really good at making it work. Sometimes that means thinking outside the box. Sometimes it means a little extra communication or a partner holding the phone.

But what I hear again and again from parents is:"You helped me more in one hour across the country than the three IBCLCs I saw in person."If you’re worried virtual won’t be “enough”—you’re not alone. And you’re not wrong for wanting someone who knows how to work in this space.

Good news? I do. And we can do so much together, even from miles apart.

“I was so skepital about virutal visits but they were a LIFELINE in the newborn storm. Your validation and support made me feel safe and supported which translanted quickly into confidence that we would figure it out. And we freaking did!”
