“I wanted to formally express my gratitude for all your have done for us over this past year. You have been such a wonderful and knowledgable resource during my first year of parenting, and I feel truly fortunate to have known you.

I feel that without you we might not have been able to reach our 12 month goal of breastfeeding. Margaret started out in the NICU, spending her first week there and for medical reasons, we were not allowed to nurse during that period. Given that variable, the fact that she was my first child, and the fact that we have no family near by to offer support, we could have easily been unsuccessful. I genuinely feel if we had not worked together, our experience would have looked quite different. Breast feeding can be difficult, confusing, and lonely. Without the support, knowledge, and access to your services I do belief I would have likely given up.

So, as Margaret nears her first birthday, I thought this would be a good time to relay my sentiments. We appreciate your support, kindness, and services more than you know. I feel this program is extremely valuable and feel so lucky to have found you. Thank you, Kathy, for all you have done for us! ”
