Not Sure Where to Start?
If you're unsure which service is right for you, start with the Virtual Initial Lactation Consultation.
It's designed to meet you wherever you are — and build a plan from there.
Virtual Initial Lactation Consultation
45 Minutes | $200
Book Your Initial Consultation
Whether you're planning prenatally, newly postpartum, exclusively pumping, or struggling with a challenge that hasn't been fully evaluated — this is where we start. Every client begins here, because breastfeeding and pumping challenges rarely exist in isolation. Flange sizing affects milk supply. Oral function affects pump output. Pump settings affect nipple comfort. Your initial consultation looks at the full picture so nothing gets missed.
Your consultation may focus on:
Prenatal breastfeeding preparation
Professional virtual flange sizing
Pumping optimization and pump settings
Low milk supply evaluation
Oversupply and hyperlactation management
Oral function or tongue tie assessment
Latch difficulties and feeding mechanics
Exclusive pumping strategy
You don't have to be in crisis to book. You just have to be ready to move forward.
Virtual Follow-Up Lactation Consultation
45 Minutes | $150
Breastfeeding evolves — and so does your care plan. Follow-up consultations are where we refine, adjust, and build on the foundation we created together.
Follow-ups are used to:
Fine-tune flange sizing adjustments
Optimize pump settings and cycle timing
Continue building or stabilizing milk supply
Continue stabilizing or reducing milk supply
Reassess oral function and latch
Prepare for or support post-tongue tie release
Plan your next stage — returning to work, reducing pumping sessions, or sustaining supply
Small, precise adjustments make meaningful differences. This is where that happens.
Virtual Flange Sizing Consultation
Non-Live Photo & Video Review | $45
If your primary concern is pumping comfort or output, this focused service delivers expert IBCLC flange sizing without a full consultation appointment. No live session required — submit your photos and video securely and receive personalized recommendations.
This service is ideal for exclusive pumpers, wearable pump users, and anyone who suspects their flange size may be affecting milk output or causing nipple discomfort.
Your review includes:
Nipple measurement analysis
Elastic tissue response evaluation
Flange tunnel movement assessment
Pump compatibility guidance
Bra fit and positioning review
Personalized flange size recommendations
One follow-up sizing adjustment within 14 days
This service focuses specifically on flange fit and pumping mechanics. If additional feeding challenges are identified during your review, a Virtual Initial Lactation Consultation may be recommended to evaluate your full feeding system.
WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE THE NATURAL LIONESS: Real-Life Experience Meets Clinical Expertise
Breastfeeding challenges are rarely simple and textbook advice doesn't always survive within real life. Lisa Shamburger, IBCLC, CLC, built The Natural Lioness specifically to bridge that gap: combining advanced clinical training with the hard-earned perspective of a mother of four who has personally navigated oversupply, low milk supply, oral dysfunction, and everything in between. That lived experience isn't just a backstory; it's why consultations here feel different.
A Note on How This Practice Works
The Natural Lioness operates in partnership with Genuine Lactation, an IBCLC-led virtual lactation practice. Scheduling and billing are managed through Genuine Lactation's platform, allowing Lisa to deliver structured, clinically rigorous care within a framework built for advanced virtual lactation support. This is not your generalized basic breastfeeding help. It is highly specialized, systems-based lactation care for families who want real answers — not just feel good answers without results.
What Families Experience
The most consistent feedback Lisa receives centers on one thing: thoroughness. Families who have tried other resources — pediatricians, hospital lactation visits, online groups — often arrive having never had their full feeding system evaluated together: flange fit, pump settings, oral function, milk removal, and supply patterns reviewed as one holistic picture. That comprehensive approach is the standard for every family here, not the exception.
The Natural Lioness is particularly well suited for:
Exclusively pumping parents seeking precision flange sizing and pump optimization
Families navigating or suspecting, infant oral dysfunction or tongue tie
Parents experiencing low milk supply who want data-driven, physiology-based support
Parents navigating oversupply, forceful letdown, or recurrent plugged ducts and mastitis
Prenatal families who want to prepare thoroughly before baby arrives
Anyone who has felt dismissed, under treated, or left with unanswered questions elsewhere
