If you're sick of...
❌ Googling your breastfeeding questions at 2 am and spiraling into a confusing rabbit hole that leaves you sleepless even when your baby does sleep
❌ Feeling like every feed is a battle instead of bonding
❌ Asking your doctors & other "professionals" for answers but being made to feel like you're crazy, too worried, or a lost cause
Then I want you to know, I see you.
I work with moms every day who feel just like you do -- losing hope, but determined to go down swinging.
You want to know you've done everything possible to make breastfeeding the beautiful bonding experience you've dreamed of, and I'm here to help you feel confident in each choice you make.
No longer will you be controlled by fear and helplessness, it's time for you unleash your inner confident MamaBear and get answers, plans, and solutions.
Hey, I'm Jaimie Z., IBCLC
Hey, MamaBear! As a natural minded Mama of 5, military wife, and nurse, when my kids were born, 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.
If you're ready to start ENJOYING breastfeeding and BONDING with your baby, book your appointment now!

What makes Jaimie's approach different?
Jaimie Z IBCLC offers Concierge Breastfeeding Support that Actually Supports You
This isn’t a one-and-done visit with cookie-cutter advice and a pat on the back.
And it’s definitely not a “let’s wait and see” plan while you struggle.
You deserve better.
This is a full-spectrum, high-touch experience designed to uncover root causes, restore your confidence, and help you meet your breastfeeding goals—with real guidance every step of the way.
✔️ Thorough, holistic investigation of what’s really going on
✔️ A personalized, step-by-step care plan—not a generic checklist
✔️ Hands-on support that adapts with your journey
✔️ Follow-up that doesn’t disappear after one visit
✔️ You in the driver’s seat—with expert insight guiding your way
You're not just heard—you’re held.
You're not just another case—you’re a mother who matters.
Let’s give you the kind of care you thought you’d get... and more.
This is why we created support bundles with your continued support in mind.

You will never be alone on this journey when you have Jaimie on your side.

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? How many follow ups do I need?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, à la carte or a bundled package 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 an 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.

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.
-
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.
