Newborn's Care
Latching With Confidence 

The internet's best online breastfeeding class to help you prevent & overcome unexpected latching issues, so you can enjoy breastfeeding your baby without all the pain, stress, and drama. 

I've been there. When my son wouldn't latch I thought the doctors and nurses would fix it.. but they didn't. In fact, they made me feel stupid and broken.  After fighting to get answers, I learned how to enjoy postpartum despite tricky latches & weight gain worries with my next babies.

 

After spending the last 8+ years helping moms navigate breastfeeding challenges, I realized too many moms were saying, "How come no one told me that sooner?" when taught them techniques for working WITH their body & baby to make breastfeeding work. 

If you're like most women, you think breastfeeding is supposed to be natural... so why does it hurt so much and why does no one ever has any helpful answers, only band-aid fixes that don't work. 

The truth is, most breastfeeding classes, hospitals, and healthcare providers are offering out-dated advice, one-size-fits no one breastfeeding techniques, and push you to use "control based" feeding methods instead of an instinct led approach.

That approach leaves you feeling like you and your baby are working against each other, like you're broken, and like maybe you weren't even meant to breastfeed

BUT I HAVE GOOD NEWS... with instinct led breastfeeding techniques I'll teach you inside Latching with Confidence, you can create a positive breastfeeding story, even when it isn't perfect.

Here's what other Fierce MamaBears are saying

Hi, I'm Jaimie Z. IBCLC 

Hey, MamaBear! As a natural minded Mama of 5, military wife, and nurse, I knew the importance of breastfeeding, but underestimated how challenging it could be without the right support system in place. After helping moms across the country navigate breastfeeding challenges, and working through my own breastfeeding challenges, I've learned a few things that God is calling me to share with you. 

As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), my mission is to help you shut out the toxic lies of the world telling you all the reasons you can't breastfeed, and help you unlock the power in working with your & your baby's God-given design to achieve breastfeeding success. Breastfeeding isn't always perfect, but when you have the right support system, and trust your intuition, you can create a positive breastfeeding story.  

I'm here to help you uncover the root cause of your feeding challenges & implement solutions that work, and confidently advocate for quality healthcare, so you can prevent & overcome unexpected breastfeeding challenges without feeling broken, alone and helpless.

Bonus #1: Guide to Breastfeeding Tongue Tied Babies ($47 value)

Tongue Tie is... controversial to say the least. It can be confusing to know if your baby has a tongue tie, what to do about it, and where to turn for help. This 29 page guide walks you through signs & symptoms of tongue tie, explains treatment options, answers common questions, and equips you to confidently make decisions and advocate for your baby if you think your baby might have a tongue tie.

Bonus #2: FREE month in the Confident MamaBear Society ($29 value)

The Confident MamaBear Society is an online community of women who connect on LIVE Video Support calls for breastfeeding, pregnancy, and new motherhood support.

 

These calls are your chance to ask questions & get expert answers on how to implement the techniques & strategies you learn in LWC. If you need more support you can continue your membership for ongoing guidance & answers!

  • I've seen 2 lactation consultants already, how will this help?
    This bundle is unlike any resource because it teaches you to work WITH your baby's design instead of regurgitating the same one-size-fits-no-one advice that hospitals & corporate programs usually offer.
  • My baby had a tongue tie release already, will this help us?
    Maybe - this guide is a great FIRST STEP toward fixing your baby's latch. It goes back to the basics (the ones no one taught you), and it helps a lot of new moms figure out the NEXT STEP confidently. But if you've already "taken all the classes" and downloaded "all the guides" -- I'll be honest, this guide probably won't be earth shattering -- what you'll need if you have had an unsuccessful tongue tie release is a very customized plan. Listen to Episode 34 of the Breastfeeding with Confidence Podcast where my former client Chelsea discusses her tongue tie release journey and then consider booking a 3 or 6 week Breastfeeding Support Package so I can help you create a specific plan tailored to you and your baby's needs.
  • I'm pregnant, will this guide be helpful in preparing?
    Yes! This guide will be very helpful for preparing for your baby, and it will com in handy during the first two weeks!
  • What should I do to prepare for my virtual consult?
    Once you book, you’ll receive a detailed guide on how to prepare—including how to submit videos, what lighting and camera angles work best, and how to have everything set up (like baby, pillows, or pump) before we start. Preparing ahead helps us make the most of your session time.
  • Why do you offer visit bundles?
    Most moms don’t plan to need multiple visits. But once baby is here things can change fast. What felt manageable in week one can become overwhelming by week three— ➡️ Latch issues that pop up out of nowhere ➡️ Milk supply dips you didn’t expect ➡️ Confusing advice from doctors or nurses ➡️ Or you just don’t feel confident, even if baby is gaining That’s why bundles make sense. You get ongoing support for the reality of postpartum life—not just the ideal. A follow-up 7–10 days after your first consult can make a world of difference. We can reassess latch, monitor supply, adjust your care plan, or prep for things like pumping or returning to work. Even if your first visit goes great, having continued care lined up means you won’t be stuck waiting for help when something shifts. Prenatal bundles ensure you’re covered from the beginning—no delays, no added stress. And yes, they save you money and include private messenger support between visits and for two weeks after your final consult. If you end up needing more visits than your bundle includes? You can always add on. Starting with a bundle sets you up for success from day one.
  • Can you REALLY help me virtually?
    Absolutely, I can help you virtually—and many moms are surprised just how effective it can be! During your virtual lactation consult, you're not just getting generic advice. You're getting one-on-one, personalized care, tailored to your specific situation—just like you would in person. Here’s what to expect: 🔍 Before the consult: You’ll fill out a secure intake form and have the chance to upload short videos or photos of your baby feeding, latching, or sucking on your finger. This allows me to assess things like latch, suck function, positioning, and oral movement—so we don’t waste any time during our visit. 💻 During the session: We’ll connect via a private, HIPAA-compliant video call. I’ll walk you through a holistic review of both your health and your baby’s. We’ll look at feeding together in real time (if baby’s ready), go over any red flags, and build a custom plan that aligns with your goals. 🤱 After the consult: Some families benefit from follow-up sessions, while others feel confident continuing with the support I provide through follow-up messaging. You’ll have access to email or chat support to answer questions that pop up afterward. So yes—virtual consults work. With the right prep and expert eyes guiding you, it can be just as impactful (and sometimes more convenient) than an in-person visit.
  • Do you accept health insurance?
    We are currently moving away from taking most insurances and transitioning to a self-pay model. While we understand this may feel like a big shift, here's why: Recently, many insurance companies have significantly reduced or restricted reimbursement rates for IBCLCs (International Board Certified Lactation Consultants). These limitations make it difficult to provide the thorough, individualized care and follow-up that families truly need and deserve. In order to continue offering top-quality, evidence-based lactation care—without cutting corners or rushing visits—we’ve chosen to step outside of these restrictions. That said, we want care to remain as accessible as possible: We provide detailed superbills for reimbursement. Many families are still able to get partial or full reimbursement by submitting these to their insurance companies. You can also use FSA or HSA funds to cover the cost of your visit, which many families find helpful. To meet a variety of investment abilities, we offer both à la carte services and bundled care packages that offer greater value for families seeking ongoing support. This structure allows us to serve you better—on your terms—with the time and attention you truly deserve. If you have questions about reimbursement or how to use your benefits, we’re happy to guide you through the process!
  • What kinds of concerns can be addressed in a virtual visit?
    Most feeding issues can be addressed virtually, including painful latch, slow weight gain, oversupply, low milk supply, pumping concerns, bottle feeding, and more. If I believe your baby needs in-person evaluation (like for bodywork or a tongue tie release), I’ll refer you to a trusted provider in your area.
  • How do I book?
    To reserve your appointment time, payment is required at the time of booking. This ensures your spot is held and makes things easier for you—no last-minute payment stress, so you can simply focus on getting the care you need. Here’s how the process works: Click the “Get Help” button Choose your appointment type – whether you need prenatal or postpartum care, Submit your booking form and payment through our secure system to officially reserve your session Once submitted, your appointment will be reviewed. If there are any scheduling conflicts, Jaimie will personally reach out to coordinate a time that works best. After your appointment is confirmed, you’ll receive a Welcome Email with your intake forms and preparation instructions so you’re all set for your visit. We require payment up front to keep things simple and ensure every family has uninterrupted, dedicated support time. If a payment plan is required please contact Jaimie Zaki directly at jaimiezaki@littlebearlactation.com.
  • What's a prenatal lactation consultation for?
    Pregnant moms with unique concerns about breastfeeding, who struggled with breastfeeding in the past, have breast implants or reduction, PCOS, Diabetes, Infertility Challenges, and other unique situations may feel a private 1:1 breastfeeding prep meeting is helpful. Prenatal consultations screen for red flags, and can help you create a personalized plan for achieving YOUR breastfeeding goals.
  • Do I *have* to do a full package?
    No - you don't! The Concierge Package is designed to get the best outcomes with the highest level of breastfeeding support. If you want just one consult, and you want to add on visits as needed, that's okay too. You can book an initial consultation for $350, and follow ups for $250 each. This does not include any extras like Breastfeeding Resource Library Access or ongoing text support. If you would like to book an a la carte consultation, just email Jaimie at jaimiezaki@littlebearlactation.com
  • How long will this class take to work?
    You can binge this course in under an hour, or space it out as needed... Your experience will depend on your unique situation and unique needs. Some moms will need extra support and guidance while others will just need one puzzle piece to click into place for instant results.
  • Is this for pregnant moms or breastfeeding moms who already gave birth?
    This class is geared toward moms whose baby is already here who are struggling with breastfeeding. If you're pregnant and struggled in the past, this class can help set you up for a better experience this time.
  • Is there ongoing support?
    The Fix Your Latch Workshop is a self-paced, down and dirty guide to figuring out your latching issues. If you find out you need more than a simple fix and need further support, you can upgrade to the full Latching With Confidence course or book a 1:1 consult.
  • Is this covered by insurance?
    Most health insurance companies cover breastfeeding classes, however they typically need to have a live component. Since this is fully self paced, most insurance companies won't cover it, however if you upgrade to 1:1 consults you may be able to utilize insurance
  • I don’t want to waste my money on a class that doesn’t help.
    I hear you. There are so many generic breastfeeding classes that focus on surface-level tips and leave moms frustrated when things don’t go as planned. That's why this is designed to be a small investment with big impact -- you'll walk away knowing if what you're experiencing is normal and having a plan for simple changes OR you'll get confirmation there are unique complications and you deserve expert guidance. This class is designed to help you decide what your next step should be CONFIDENTLY.
  • What if I just end up needing formula anyway?
    This class isn’t about making you feel guilty if breastfeeding doesn’t go perfectly—it’s about giving you real solutions so you can make informed choices. If supplementation becomes necessary, we can work together to teach you how to do it in a way that protects your breastfeeding relationship (instead of sabotaging it). ​ ​
  • I've already talked to my doctor & a lactation consultant, but they said there's nothing wrong...
    If you're gut says breastfeeding shouldn't be THIS hard, but you're feeling frustrated, confused, and like something NEEDS to change, odds are the providers you worked with just didn't have the right tools and training to give you the support you deserve. This course is not intended to be a magic wand or quick fix, but rather help you understand WHY you're experiencing whatever symptoms you're struggling with. When we understand the WHY we can implement SOLUTIONS, not just bandaid fixes or waiting and watching. And the sad TRUTH is most doctors and many lactation consultants don't know how to get to the ROOT CAUSE of feeding issues. That's why this class is different. We teach you to work WITH your baby.
  • I don’t want to waste my money on a class that doesn’t help.
    I hear you. There are so many generic breastfeeding classes that focus on surface-level tips and leave moms frustrated when things don’t go as planned. That’s why this is designed to go so much deeper! You'll learn tips for preparing, and if you have challenges you'll be able to come back and rewatch key sections for FIXING those challenges (or to get confirmation you need expert support). As with anything, there's no promises in life, and breastfeeding success is determined by a variety of factors, but this is the class I WISH I had 10 years ago
  • Is this for pregnant moms or breastfeeding moms who already gave birth?
    Both!!! The sooner you learn all the wisdom inside of Latching with Confidence the better, but it's never too late! This class is amazing for pregnant moms who want to feel confidently prepared for breastfeeding and it's amazing for moms who are struggling and don't know what else to do, but aren't quite ready to give up either.
