Ratings and reviews
I highly recommend Raeley from Learn to Latch! She helped us so much when my baby was struggling to latch correctly and again when I was dealing with an oversupply. She is very personable and easy to talk with. I will continue to see her for any breastfeeding issues that arise.
- Faith Peterson
Raeley was incredible! So kind and helpful! She a huge part of why our journey was successful!
- Taylor Clark
Raeley is the best! Knowledgeable, kind, empathetic, and genuine. Easy to communicate with and a great listener. I was freshly postpartum and a little anxious when I began working with her. She was not only extremely helpful with teaching me all of the breastfeeding logistics part, but she helped me with other motherhood questions that I had..and that meant so much. Her wisdom and advice made breastfeeding feel less stressful and I felt that she gave me the tools that I needed to feel more capable and strong with the difficulty that my first month of breastfeeding brought me. Her encouragement and help went a long ways. I will definitely use her again for my next newborn.
- Brittany Cofer
Raeley has been incredibly supportive throughout my breastfeeding journey, always taking the time to thoughtfully answer my questions. She genuinely cares about both you and your baby, which really shows in the personalized attention she gives—she even reached out to me directly. Her knowledge and compassion make her someone I would highly recommend!
- Kayla Davis
Raeley is so incredibly helpful and patient. She worked with us to help my 2nd baby with some latch and transfer issues. She was so encouraging and supportive as we struggled on our nursing journey. She made me feel very comfortable and cared for. Will definitely go back to see her for any more nursing issue or just for support!
- Avery Crowther
Raeley has made such a huge difference in my breastfeeding journey! Her advice helped correct issues I was having and has given me so much peace of mind. She guided me based on what I needed and never pressured me into a certain opinion. I’ve appreciated her so much and would recommend her to anyone!
- Thomas Family
Raeley was so helpful to my family as we welcomed our first baby last year. We did weighted feeds and we looked at our babies latch to make sure it was correct.This provided so much peace of mind during our breastfeeding journey! Great experience and would recommend Raeley to anyone.
- Cambri Hajny
Raeley is great! Super thorough and very observant. She helped us come up with a game plan to address our lactation needs with my 3 mo old.
- Alexa Ransbottom
Raeley was so kind and informative! I met with her before I had my baby just to go over everything and she made me feel more prepared as a first time mom wanting to breastfeed. Definitely recommend!!
- Alexa Srader
Raeley is the best!! She was so understanding and talked me through everything I needed to know regarding breastfeeding and pumping. I wouldn’t still be nursing at almost 8 months if it wasn’t for her!
- Brianna Miles
Our little family loved working with Holly! She was very responsive no matter what time it was, answered any and all kinds of questions we had, and even was flexible with our schedule. I don’t know what we would have done with our breastfeeding journey if it wasn’t for Holly’s help! ❤️
- Shae Thomas
Raeley provided a great educational overview of breastfeeding while I was still pregnant and has helped me immensely since my son has been born. We’ve had issues with latching and Raeley has provided so much support and helped us make progress each time we saw her!
- Lauren Graybill
Raeley was so wonderful to work with! My daughter would not take a bottle no matter what we tried. I brought her to Raeley who observed my daughter had a high palate that was hypersensitive. Raeley gave us desensitization exercises to do and after several weeks, we saw significant improvement with bottle feeding. I’m so grateful we found Raeley as bottle refusal was a significant source of anxiety and worry for me. Three months later, my daughter is still bottle feeding like a champ!
- Molly McCool West
Raeley has been a Godsend for us! Our little one had ties released and this was not our first nor second baby, so I am experienced in breastfeeding but I still needed help! Raeley got us back on track in breastfeeding properly.

Raelee was truly a blessing to me and my baby girl. She wouldn’t take a bottle no matter what I did. I bought so many different bottles and tried all the things. After working with Raelee we finally got my little one taking a bottle like a champ. She is a wealth of knowledge and so patient. I can’t recommend her enough!
- Madison Putman
Raleigh was so helpful to me and my newborn. I suffered from an over supply and she helped me to lower my supply and minimize discomfort to myself in the process. She was always so friendly and available if I had questions in between meetings as well. -kaila

Raeley was so helpful and knowledgeable! I would definitely recommend her!!
- Madi Sandall
Raeley has been an absolute lifesaver on my breastfeeding journey. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive, making me feel supported every step of the way. We worked through digestive concerns, weight gain challenges, and latch issues, and her expertise made all the difference. She took the time to thoroughly explain everything, providing practical solutions tailored to my baby’s needs. No matter how many questions I had, she was always quick to respond and reassured me with her calm, encouraging approach. I now feel confident and empowered in my breastfeeding journey, all thanks to her guidance. Highly recommend!
- Bradyn Regent
Raeley was amazing! Although this was not my first time breastfeeding, I was still needing assistance with latching. Raeley was so patient and helped so much. She was very thorough with her assessment and she would even check on my daughter in between visits. She was also very accommodating with scheduling. Whether you are a first time mom or this is your 5th child, I would highly recommend Raeley!!!!
- Erica Colmenares
I am SO happy we worked with Raeley! During our hospital stay after our babies’ arrival, the LC on call was unfortunately less than helpful/informative. We were given about 10 minutes of time, a vague “everything looks good” comment and then left with a pamphlet. As a first time mom of twins, I had no idea what I was doing or what to expect and looking stuff up on the internet only fueled my anxiety. During our visit with Raeley we weighed each baby pre- and post-feeding to determine how much milk they were getting and she explained that they will eat what they need so sometimes it will be more sometimes less (seems like common sense but I had it in my brain that they needed to get X amount each time and I wasn’t doing it right if they weren’t). We also spoke about some discomfort I was having and she explained what was normal and gave me some tips for how to alleviate some of it. We also worked with some different feeding positions since I was having issues with nipple blisters. She even let me borrow her My Breast Friend pillow to see how I liked it before I invested in one of my own. I really appreciated her kindness and patience. I left feeling SO much better and WAY more confident in myself and feeding my babies. We’ve seen her 2x and will definitely work with her again if/when we need to. 10/10 recommend!!!
- Lillie Roney
Raeley was a great help to us as we started our breastfeeding journey. She was able to help us work through some problem areas and we are in a much better place now. Without that support I probably wouldn't have continued with breastfeeding because of the pain I experienced. Raeley is so sweet, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lactation consultant!
- Rachel Epp
Raeley was such a blessing to me and my family starting our breastfeeding journey! There is so much more that goes into it than I ever could’ve imagined. She helped our little one get back to his birth weight and make his jaundice go away! She was very responsive and it meant a lot that she shared personal experience as well!
- Berkeley Trammel
Raeley was awesome to work with, gave us direction on how to latch correctly, tongue exercises to work on with baby, and has been awesome at supporting and answering any questions or concerns there has been! Her kindness and expertise has helped me feel more confident and equipped to breastfeed since coming to her.
- Harlie King
If it wasn’t for Raeley, I would’ve given up on nursing within two weeks. I was in so much pain. She gave me pointers and exercises to help my daughter learn to latch better and is always able to quickly answer texts or calls if you have any questions or concerns. She’s the best.
- Alicia McGill
Raeley is so Amazing! She was able to get me in quickly with her. Shes very sweet and was able to help me resolve my breastfeeding issue. Highly recommend her!
- Aliyah Luhm
Raeley was super helpful in my time of need. Offered me a breast pump and so many helpful tips. I never felt like any of my questions were silly or anything! She always was available via text message and responded so quick and well! I highly recommend seeing Raeley if you are having any questions or concerns about if your baby is transferring milk well, breastfeeding, etc!
- Amber Hamman
