Charlotte Lactation

Charlotte Lactation is a breastfeeding support practice serving expecting and new parents in the Charlotte, North Carolina area. Founded by Cheryl Demers, a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), the practice offers personalized guidance to help families prepare for breastfeeding and address challenges after a baby arrives. Services include prenatal breastfeeding assessments and lactation consultations, with information about pricing and frequently asked questions available to help families plan their care.

Cheryl’s approach emphasizes listening carefully to parents’ concerns and offering practical, individualized solutions in a warm, patient, and nonjudgmental manner. Her background as a social worker informs her understanding of babies, children, parents, and the family experiences surrounding early parenthood. Charlotte Lactation supports parents with questions about feeding, milk supply, nursing sessions, and whether a baby is getting enough milk, while helping them work toward their own breastfeeding goals.

The practice also hosts a no-cost weekly online group for expecting and new parents in Southeast Charlotte, offering a chance to connect with local families and find support
