Shondra is amazing at what she does! Not only is she very knowledgeable, but she is also a wonderful person to be around. Shondra always kept a professional demeanor but knew when to give warmth to the situation. Let's be honest - having your boobs front and center while talking in detail about anatomy can get awkward sometimes. I did not feel self-conscious with her. I had been failed by the lactation support provided by the hospital I had given birth and received my prenatal care, and Shondra came in with everything I wished I had known from birth.

I was about to give up breastfeeding after major weight issues with my newborn that our local hospital’s breastfeeding consultants couldn’t help with. After a conversation with Shondra Mattos at Mattos Lactation, she was able to help me find the root of his weight loss so we didn’t have to switch to formula. She saved my breastfeeding journey and uncovered a major problem with my newborn no one else had noticed that switching to formula wouldn’t have helped.

I cannot say enough about Shondra! We called her out of desperation after a week of difficult nursing and she was able to see us the same day. She was down-to-earth, warm, and relatable. She was so knowledgeable in all things breastfeeding and was able to explain things in a way that made complex issues more simple. As a weary Mom who didn’t need lactation support with my first child, I am SO glad I reached out to Shondra and will continue to do so if anything comes up. Call her, you’ll be so glad you did and feel so relieved after meeting with her

Shondra is amazing! My journey with breastfeeding has been a tough one, and I had just told myself, this is my last try. I sent a message (not expecting a response since it was at 2:00 am), and she responded immediately and we set up an appointment. During our visit, she asked questions about the problems I was having, listened to the answers I gave, and she realized before my doctor did that my LO had a tongue tie. After that, evaluated my baby and helped me make a plan of action. To top it off, she researched all day to find out about the resources in my area because I didn't know how to get help. It was awesome, and now my breastfeeding relationship with my baby, although not perfect, is going great.

Shondra is a blessing! I have had every question in the book, and she always patient, informative, kind, and actually listens to my wishes and beliefs . She always found a way to help me and she didn't push things she knows I was against. In fact, once I say something, it’s like was embedded and she would know for future reference. I've had some serious issues with breastfeeding, she was my rock to push through. Without her, I don't know if I would have continued. Shondra has so much compassion and knowledge for breastfeeding. One of the best things is she’s honest, if she doesn't know she doesn't talk bologna and she will get you an answer no matter what it takes. The fact she’s all hours pretty much saved me numerous times. Thank you SO much!
