Lactation Consultant Services

The Breastfeeding Support Program at Penn State offers an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) who is available to help with any breastfeeding or pumping concerns. This help can be in the form of email exchanges, an in-home visit, or a consult via phone or Zoom.

IBCLCs are professionals who are invaluable assets to breastfeeding families. They can offer reassurances to a family wondering if breastfeeding and lactation are going well by providing research-based information and expert support. For more information about this professional designation, please visit the certification board at https://iblce.org/. 

Consults can be arranged prenatally, during leave, or after return to work or class. For program enrollment information or to schedule a consult, contact breastfeeding@psu.edu.
