River Valley Lactation

08/04/2026

Hi! I wanted to take a moment to reintroduce myself since there are so many new faces here. 🤍

I’m Kayli, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and the owner of River Valley Lactation.

I’m also a wife and mom to three busy boys, so I know firsthand that feeding a baby doesn’t always go as planned. That’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about helping families feel supported, informed, and confident throughout their feeding journey.

I provide personalized in-home and virtual lactation care throughout Western Wisconsin and Eastern Minnesota. Whether you’re preparing to breastfeed before baby arrives, struggling with painful feeds, low milk supply, pumping, bottle feeding, tongue ties, returning to work, or weaning, my goal is to meet you where you are—both literally and emotionally.

One thing that makes my practice unique is that I come to you. There’s no packing up a newborn or trying to make it to an office appointment. We work together in the comfort of your home, where feedings naturally happen, allowing me to provide care that’s individualized to your family’s real life.

I’m also in-network with many major insurance plans, which means many families are able to receive care with little to no out-of-pocket cost.

Thank you for being here and for supporting my small business. It is truly an honor to be invited into such a special season of your family’s life. If you have questions about breastfeeding, pumping, or infant feeding—or know someone who could benefit from lactation support—I’d love to help. 🤍

So true!

The problem with the massive mismatch between our ancient intelligent babies and our modern culture is that many perfectly normal traits or tendencies get pathologized. Conversely- truly they are just evidence of how brilliantly our babies are designed, and how they are doing just what they should be to maintain connection and survive.

Feeling lost or confused about how your infant sleeps? Or do you have a gut feeling that something deeper is going on? I can help. Availability open for quick hitting intuition + education calls AND full consult packages. I’d love to support you so you can support your baby.

If you’ve already sought help but still feel like something isn’t adding up, this post is for you.

With the exception of the families I care for through my Osceola Medical Center partnership, the majority of my patients come to me for a second opinion. By the time I meet them, they’ve often already:
• Worked with another lactation (often multiple) professional.
• Have thoroughly tried all advice they have received.
• Had an oral tie evaluation—or even a release.
• Have given it a huge effort and are at their last straw.

They’re exhausted, discouraged, and often questioning if they’ll ever reach their feeding goals.

Here’s what I want you to know…

Hearing that you’ve “already tried everything” doesn’t discourage me. In fact, it’s what I do every day.

Complex feeding challenges are my specialty. Second opinions are literally my business. I love putting the pieces of the puzzle together, looking at the whole picture, and finding the “why” behind what’s happening. Sometimes all it takes is a different perspective, more time, or a plan that’s tailored specifically to you and your baby.

Many of the families I work with go on to reach goals they weren’t sure were still possible.

So if you’ve been told everything looks normal but feeding still doesn’t feel right… or you’ve tried everything you can think of and you’re still struggling…

Don’t give up yet.

I’d love the opportunity to take a fresh look with you. 🤍

One of the unexpected perks of my job? Sometimes my office for the day looks like this. ☀️🌳

While many visits take place in living rooms, nurseries, or around kitchen tables, occasionally I get to meet families at the park, and honestly, it’s pretty amazing.

Sometimes it works best for a family to meet me in the middle in a public space. Fresh air, a change of scenery, and support right where life is happening.

Whether we’re at your home, virtually, or enjoying a beautiful day outdoors, my goal is always the same: helping you feel confident feeding your baby.

What a beautiful “office” for the day. 💚
