Breastfeeding Classes
One of the best ways to reach your breastfeeding goals is to have a fundamental understanding of breastfeeding basics.

Start breastfeeding with confidence after taking your Breastfeeding 101 class with Jaimie! You can enroll now in an online class OR you can email Jaimie now to book your private prenatal breastfeeding class in the comfort of your own home!
Breastfeeding Support
Breastfeeding is "natural", but doesn't always come naturally. Breastfeeding can be down right hard. Having support is absolutely vital in reaching your breastfeeding goals. From common nursing challenges to complex breastfeeding struggles, Jaimie is equipped to help you find a solution.
Jaimie can help you navigate Difficult Latch, Sore Nipples, Breastfeeding after Cesarean, Slow Infant Weight Gain, Engorgement, and so much more..
In light of the COVID-19 Pandemic, Jaimie Zaki will only be offering online lactation support visits. If it is determined an in-home visit is essential during your video appointment, Jaimie will discuss options.

Does Little Bear Lactation offer medical advice?
Never! Little Bear offers a starting point for information and research that you can discuss with your provider. Little Bear does offer skilled lactation support and communicates your care plan and any clinical concerns to your/your child's healthcare provider.
Do you work with insurance?
I am not currently in network with any major insurance companies, however I do accept FSA/HSA payments. Additionally you will be provided with a Superbill that can be submitted to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. I encourage all clients to submit their superbill even if you don't think it will be covered, so that insurance companies can see the demand for lactation support coverage.
Check back regularly for any updates on insurance coverage as I am in the process of applying for in network coverage with multiple insurance plans.
Do you work with Tricare?
As a militarty spouse myself, I work with a lot of military families. Unfortunately, Tricare does not, at this time work with private practice IBCLCs. Because military families tend to be lacking in social support structures, I do offer a military discount on your initial postpartum lactation home visit.
I encourage all families to submit their Superbill to Tricare to make them aware of the demand for expanded lactation support coverage.
