Client Testimonials

"This place is amazing! With everyone's help and support, I was able to get my baby breastfeeding after almost 3 months of trying. Everyone is so helpful and sweet!"
Jessica P.
“Christy was the reason I didn't stop breastfeeding early in my journey. She is an amazing lactation consultant and her never ending support was a blessing to me and my little boy”
Lisa D.
"Someone suggested this place to me for a chiropractor during pregnancy but i never went. I did use them for the lactation consultant. It was worth every penny. I was having severe pain and by the end of the appointment i was almost pain free. My body just needs time to heal to be 100% pain free. The consultation paid for the initial appointment and follow up. When i was in the hospital the lactation consultant came in my room for like 5-10 minutes so there was very little help. But Growing Green Families really took the time to help me and gave suggestions based on what was going on with my baby and I during nursing. This is a place you definitely want assistance from."
