What is a Certified Lactation Specialist?
A Certified Lactation Specialist is a breastfeeding expert geared to come alongside mother and baby. She is trained to observe baby’s feeding technique and to offer advice based on her observations and professional experience. She evaluates the breastfeeding hold of baby as well as baby’s latch, advising adjustments if she notes a barrier to breastfeeding success.
If you are a new mom in the Winston-Salem area, you may have questions and insecurities surrounding your breastfeeding experience. Sometimes moms need more support than the postpartum nurse in the hospital can provide. And sometimes problems don’t arise until after you are already home.
This is where a lactation professional comes in and saves the day….not to mention the sanity of mama! A specialized breastfeeding consultant has the sole objective of getting you and your baby on a path to breastfeeding success.
Our lactation professionals at Baby Settler have the skill set and will take the time to help you achieve breastfeeding success.

Founder Hillary Sadler is an experienced lactation professional who has offered her personal and professional advice to well over 1,000 moms and babies along their breastfeeding journeys.
Through her own experience as a new mama, Hillary discovered a personal drive to pursue a degree in Nursing. With a vision to help new mamas like herself,
Hillary completed nursing school and went on to work as a labor and delivery nurse. After a number of years in her role, Hillary decided to add lactation consultant to her impressive bio.

Her idea became Baby Settler, the expert lactation and sleep training company she founded. Hillary and her expert team relish the opportunity to come alongside families during the exhilarating, exhausting, and challenging time of welcoming a newborn and nurturing a growing family. Hillary and her staff of certified lactation nurses are passionate about helping babies and mamas work through obstacles to successful breastfeeding.
