Feeding Shouldn’t Feel This Hard.

Whether it’s breast, bottle, or both — your baby can feed with ease.

If you’re struggling with latch, supply, bottle refusal, pumping, pain, or just feel something’s off — you're in the right place.

Feeding is not just a technique. It’s relationship. It's rhythm. And it's worth getting support for.

Real Support. Real Relief.

I’m Julee Portner — speech-language pathologist (MS, CCC-SLP), lactation consultant (IBCLC), and infant bodyworker with 30+ years of experience helping families navigate feeding, digestion, and development.

Together, we’ll slow down, look at the whole picture, and figure out what your baby is asking for — even if they can’t tell us with words.

You'll leave with clarity and a plan — grounded in your baby and family's unique rhythm.

Whole‑Body Wellness for Mom & Baby

Feeding and tongue‑tie are just part of the journey. Julee also offers hands‑on bodywork and wellness support—through massage, craniosacral and oral‑motor therapy, breath‑body coaching, energy work, reflex integration, and more—to subtly shift tension, restore flow, and balance.

For babies:

• Infant massage, facial/jaw/oral‑motor therapy, and craniosacral work

• Gentle support for digestion, tension, sleep, reflux, and fussy latches

• Aquatic bodywork sessions in warm water—offered in a therapeutic setting where your baby is gently floated, moved, and held.
These sessions help unwind birth imprints, regulate the nervous system, and promote deep calm through soothing touch in a womb-like environment.

For moms:

• Therapeutic breast massage and body alignment

• Stress-relief craniosacral therapy and postpartum nervous-system support

• Milk Management & Breast Care—hands-on, non-invasive support for milk flow, blocked ducts, engorgement, and breast discomfort.
Julee uses gentle techniques to promote circulation, lymph drainage, and tissue softening—supporting both comfort and supply.

This approach isn’t just clinical care—it’s nervous‑system regulation, deeper bonding, and full‑body restoration, woven into the feeding support you already trust. Whether on the table or in warm water, Julee’s care helps mothers and babies return to balance—together.
