About Melanie Henstrom, IBCLC
3 things you should know right off the bat: 1. I’m a mother of 6 — including a set of twins — and breastfed all my children. (personal experience … ✓) 2. I’m an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with specialized training to help you with your lactation struggles. 3. I have years of training and experience in baby body work including, infant massage, CST, CFT and MFR. I know firsthand how unique each baby is and how breastfeeding is a struggle without support and resources. I founded Baby Bonds in 2017 to serve the Boise community I love and now also own Melanie Henstrom Lactation, LLC serving Boise and surrounding areas starting with breast pump deliveries, prenatal consults, lactation support, tongue tie support, and body work for your little one. I strive to provide the best lactation services available. I’ve helped 2,500+ breastfeeding dyads (and counting) have a successful breastfeeding experience. I’ve created online resources to spread accurate knowledge on common breastfeeding issues. Empowering families to reach their goals feeds my soul.
