Breastfeeding is natural... but it isn't always easy.

You’re probably here because something isn’t going how you imagined it would. 

You’re still pregnant and already stressed about whether breastfeeding will work. Or maybe your baby is already here — and feeding is painful, frustrating, and emotional.

Root and Bloom LLC Favicon

At Root and Bloom, we meet you where you are...

Physically, emotionally, and logistically. We provide in-home and virtual support that’s designed to reduce your stress, build your confidence, and actually help you feed your baby the way you want to.

 

You shouldn’t have to figure this out alone with Google at 2 a.m. You don’t have to suffer through it. There’s a better way — with support that’s kind, clear, and custom to you.

Hi, I’m Tarah Yocum, an IBCLC and a mom of three.

I’ve breastfed all of my children, and lived through the exhaustion, the anxiety, and the tongue ties. I’ve been on both sides of this, as the worried parent and the trained professional.

 

I won’t show up with judgment or cookie-cutter advice. I’ll show up with real answers, real empathy, and a plan that works for your real life.

 

Whether you’re dealing with latch issues, pumping logistics, supply questions, returning to work, or weaning … I’ve got you.

 

Let’s figure this out together.

Prenatal Breastfeeding Prep

Feel prepared before baby arrives. We’ll talk through what to expect in the early days, how to get a good latch, signs baby is feeding well, and how to prevent common issues before they start.

Postpartum Lactation Consults

Struggling with latch, supply, pain, or just feeling overwhelmed? I provide personalized support in the comfort of your own home (or virtually) to help you feel confident feeding your baby.

Pumping + Return-to-Work

Whether you’re going back to work or just want to build a freezer stash, I’ll help you choose the right pump, set a sustainable schedule, and understand how to protect your milk supply.

Weaning Guidance and Support

Ready to transition from breastfeeding? I’ll support you with a gentle plan that respects both your body and your baby’s needs... whether weaning happens gradually or all at once.
