Our Story

Momentum Lactation was founded in 2017 with the goal of providing greater access to breastfeeding support in the Edwardsville and St. Louis Metro Area. Alisa worked in the community in a hospital setting for many years and realized that many Mothers needed more support and information after they leave the hospital to be successful on their breastfeeding journey. With decades of experience supporting and educating new mothers through various modalities, and an expert in clinical lactation, she founded Momentum Lactation to include needed access and support missing in the hospital and community.

Alisa works with physicians and other care providers in the community and has built a strong referral network in the area for a variety of breastfeeding and post partum issues and support.

Families can now receive office, home or virtual visits in the early days at home, as well as a community of other moms in our monthly Breastfeeding Mom’s Meet Ups. Common types of issues addressed include, low milk supply, painful latch, baby weight loss, pediatrician concerns related to feeding or growth, getting a back to work plan and just managing the breastfeeding routine and lifestyle. Most clinical consults are covered by insurance. We look forward to serving you to help you meet your breastfeeding goals along your personal journey.
