GROW Advanced Lactation Support

GROW Advanced Lactation Support GROW is proud to provide Polk County, Florida with the highest standard for lactation support.

At GROW, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive lactation support for new families in Central Florida. One of the most important aspects of my work is to make sure that families feel heard and honored during this new phase, so they are empowered to continue reaching their infant feeding goal. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I am committed to providing personalized guidance for each family's unique situation, whether that involves breastfeeding, exclusive pumping, formula feeding, or a combination of both. I understand that feeding a newborn can be a challenging and stressful experience, and I am here to provide compassionate and evidence-based support every step of the way.

Preparing for breastfeeding before baby arrives can make a big difference in those early weeks. A little knowledge (and the chance to ask questions ahead of time) can help you feel calmer and more confident when feeding begins.

Join us for our Better Than Basics Breastfeeding Class on April 4th at 2 PM. This class goes beyond the basics to help you understand what feeding really looks like in the early days, how to recognize a comfortable latch, how to protect your milk supply, and what’s normal for newborn feeding.

Tickets are $45, and we can bill most insurance plans directly for the cost of the class.
You can find full details and reserve your spot at www.growlakeland.com.
Come prepared, ask questions, and set yourself up for a smoother start to feeding your baby. 🤍

We’re so excited to welcome Elli to the team as our Patient Care Coordinator. She’ll be the warm presence on the other end of the phone, helping families schedule appointments and navigate insurance and paperwork with ease and care.

Originally from Austria (the country without the kangaroos 😉), Elli moved to the United States in the summer of 2024. Before that, she was a high school teacher in Austria. She is also a certified birth and postpartum doula and childbirth educator, with a deep passion for women’s health and wholehearted support of families in the early seasons.

Elli is especially excited to be part of a collaborative team of incredible women and to continue learning as much as she can. She loves staying organized, genuinely enjoys connecting with patients, and brings a steady, thoughtful energy to everything she does.

Outside of work, she’s an avid reader, a strength training enthusiast, and an occasional sourdough bread baker. She’s someone who delights in the small things, like a perfectly ripe avocado or a beautiful sunset.

Her favorite order? She’s more of a matcha person, usually an iced matcha latte with oat milk, though she’ll happily enjoy an iced oat milk latte when she’s in the mood for coffee.

We’re so grateful she’s here and can’t wait for you to get to know her. 💛

The countdown is on for our very first Better Than Basics: Infant Feeding Class 🎉
Our February 21st class is officially open, and we’d love to kick things off with a full room. Grab your spot at growlakeland.com → Classes.

Questions? Reach out—we’re happy to help. Insurance often covers the cost, so be sure to check your benefits.

And because we believe finances should never be a barrier to good, evidence-based feeding support, 5 seats in every class are reserved for families who can’t afford to pay or who don’t have insurance coverage. If you think you might qualify, email helpme@growlakeland.com.

Let’s set you up for a confident, supported feeding journey from day one 🤍

It’s a terrible idea to take a prenatal infant feeding class…
unless you want fewer surprises, less panic, and more confidence when your baby arrives.

Most feeding challenges don’t come from doing something “wrong.”
They come from not knowing what’s normal.
This class gives you the foundation before you’re exhausted, hormonal, and Googling at 2am.

You can add all the things to your registry…
but you can’t buy your way into a confident feeding journey.

Successful infant feeding isn’t about having the “right” pump, bottle, or gadget.
It’s about understanding your baby, trusting your body, and knowing how to adapt when things don’t go exactly as planned.

Our infant feeding class helps you de-influence your registry — so you’re buying less, stressing less, and feeling more confident before your baby arrives.

We’ll help you sort through the noise, focus on what actually matters, and build trust in your intuition — not a shopping list.

✨ IT’S HERE. ✨
Say hello to GROW’s very own Infant feeding class:
Better Than Basics: Infant Feeding for Modern Families

This is not your mother’s breastfeeding class.

No outdated advice. No rigid rules. No pretending feeding a baby is simple.
This class is for families who want to know what feeding a baby is actually like.

Yes, we’ll cover the basics — positioning, latching, milk production, feeding cues — but we’re also diving into the real-life stuff no one warned you about:
• Bottles & pumping
• Formula & combo feeding
• Pacifiers
• Returning to work
• Troubleshooting when things don’t go as planned
• How partners can actually help

This is practical, up-to-date, evidence-based support — taught with deep respect for your intuition and your goals.

✨ When should you take it?
We recommend attending around 30 weeks of pregnancy (give or take a few weeks) — close enough to feel real, with plenty of time to prepare.

✨ Even better?
Most commercial insurance plans cover this class, making high-quality infant feeding education accessible before your baby arrives.
📅 2026 Class Dates (all classes start at 2 PM):
• February 21
• April 4
• June 27
• August 8
• September 19
• October 31
• December 12

🎟️ Seats are limited.

Because you deserve more than the basics.
You deserve to feel informed, prepared, and confident when it’s time to feed your baby 🤍
