Why I Stopped Posting.

You may have noticed it’s been a little quiet here lately. Truth is—this year has been one of the hardest. From major shifts in insurance reimbursements to unexpected personal challenges, life has forced me to slow down in ways I didn’t anticipate.

Running a business while mothering, advocating, and navigating new diagnoses (for myself and my child) has tested every limit. Some days, the scales tipped so far they nearly toppled. And still—we’re here.

We’ve had to make tough decisions, but one thing we haven’t compromised is the quality and accessibility of care we provide. That remains at the heart of everything.

If you’ve emailed, called, or reached out in recent weeks—thank you for your patience. I’m working through it, one message at a time.

To every parent out there struggling to juggle it all: I see you. We’re proud to be part of your village—and grateful to have you in ours.

Still here. Still caring. Still Best Latch. 💛

🍯🍎 Shana Tova U'Metuka 🍎🍯
A Sweet New Year to All Who Nurture and Nourish

In every drop of milk, there is tradition of care, connection, and continuity. This Rosh Hashanah, we honor the sacred work of feeding and the generations it sustains.

May this season bring renewal, peace, and abundant blessings to you and your families.

Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey. We are honored to support you.

L’shana tova!
With gratitude and warmth,
The Best Latch Team

🌸 Support Families. Remove Barriers. Give the Gift of Care.

At Best Latch, we believe every family deserves access to quality, equitable lactation and postpartum support — no matter their financial situation.
Our Financial Assistance Fund makes it possible for us to provide services to families who are uninsured, underinsured, or whose coverage (like Medicaid) may not fully support lactation care. We don’t want finances to ever be a barrier to the support new parents and babies deserve.

💜 By donating, you’re helping us continue this mission and ensuring that every family has the opportunity to thrive.

👉 Donate today: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/BDQGJLZZPVJ54

Every contribution — big or small — makes a lasting impact. Thank you for helping us build a community of care and equity. 💕

Who gets to breastfeed — and who’s left behind?

🛑 Insecure employment
🛑 Racism in healthcare
🛑 Inflexible workplaces
🛑 No access to paid leave

These are not personal problems. They are structural barriers and they disproportionately affect BIPOC, low-wage, and marginalized communities.

🤱🏽 Enabling breastfeeding means removing these barriers.

At BestLatch, we’re not just talking about equity — we’re acting on it:
✅ Sliding scale services for Medicaid and underinsured clients + we have a fund on our website that people can donate and its used to provide free services to those in need.
✅ Back-to-work lactation consults (and yes, we can write letters citing the PUMP Act and all the evidence you need, to help parents request legally protected workplace accommodations)
✅ Advocacy for systemic change — because individual support is not enough without policy reform. We are actively working towards advocacy efforts in getting lactation care covered by medicaid & other insurers

📌 How you can support lactation equity:
🔗 Learn more about the PUMP Act here: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/pump-at-work
🔗 Advocate for national paid family leave: https://paidleaveforall.org/take-action/
🔗 Check local breastfeeding rights and protections: https://www.ncsl.org/research/health/breastfeeding-state-laws.aspx

🤲🏽 Breastfeeding support is a justice issue. Let's do more than raise awareness — let's change the conditions.

Lactating parents aren’t asking for luxury. They’re asking for what’s proven to work:
👶 Paid parental leave
🕓 Protected time to express or nurse
🛋 Clean, private lactation spaces
👥 Workplace culture that respects human milk feeding

🌍 Across the globe, when we invest in systems, breastfeeding rates climb — and maternal and infant health improve.

📊 According to UNICEF and WHO, just one extra month of maternity leave increases breastfeeding duration by over 7%.

This , let’s stop treating breastfeeding as a personal responsibility with no structural support.
It’s not about asking families to “try harder.” It’s about removing the barriers.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Best Latch! 🎆

As we celebrate this day of freedom, courage, and community, we're reminded of the many blessings that come with living in a country where independence is cherished and dreams can grow.

Whether you're spending the day with loved ones at a backyard barbecue, watching fireworks light up the sky, or simply taking a moment to reflect on what this day means — we hope your Fourth of July is full of joy, laughter, and gratitude.

Thank you for being a part of our community. Wishing you a safe and festive Independence Day! ❤️🤍💙
