You’ve got enough on your plate as a new parent.
This guide will help you cut through the online (influencer-esque) noise and help you make smart, simple choices that fit your reality as a parent.
Oh, and it’s actually Canadian 🇨🇦…. Like, things we can really get here!
👉Spending hundreds on the wrong pump because the ad or facebook group promised it was “the best” buuuut it didn’t fit their needs.
👉Feeling lost with the pump they already own. Output feels low, maybe you’re in pain (pumping should never hurt!) the process feels harder than it should, and you’re all but ready to throw your pump out a moving car window.
With the right knowledge about which pump suits your situation - and how to actually use it correctly - you’ll save money, protect your supply, and finally feel confident in your feeding journey. Woohoo!
Pumps and pumping isn’t necessarily complicated - but it’s a skill and you do need sound, evidence based information.

Making Milk with a pump, and more
This is the zero fluff resource every pumping or combo feeding parent needs.
I’ve supported hundreds of parents through breastfeeding and pumping over the last 7 years, and I kept seeing the same pattern: families wasting money on the wrong pump, buying one because “my friend told me to get this one because it worked for her”, or feeling completely overwhelmed at the choices and just picking one that was on sale for Prime days.
This guide is my answer to all those struggles.
Don’t waste another $200+ on a pump that isn’t right for you, or precious time pumping without getting the results you deserve.
Ideally, when you’re pregnant. This is going to give you a legit look at your goals for feeding and help you decipher what you will actually want on your registry or even just waiting until baby is here to buy!
This is an organized, evidence-based guide created by an IBCLC to give you clarity fast. As compared to random saved reels or blog posts.
73 pages of organized topics and comparisons by each pump.
Yes, some. You’ll learn how to get the most from the one you own, when to replace parts, and how to troubleshoot issues, but it is ideal to use more so if you are in the market for a pump. So, maybe if you’re considering another or the one you have just isn’t working for you anymore.
No. Whether you’re pumping full-time, part-time, or just at work, this guide is for you.
Over 70 pages… I spent a lot of time pouring info into this guide. It is also going to continue to evolve as people access it and ask me questions. You will have lifetime access to it and the updates too.
Choosing your pump is not a simple "well that one worked for her" decision that many people think it is.
