The Balanced Boob

The Balanced Boob is a breastfeeding education and support brand founded by Kelly Kendall, a registered nurse, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and mother. Drawing on professional expertise and personal experience, the brand helps parents navigate breastfeeding with practical guidance, compassionate care, and reassurance without guilt or shame.

Its central program, Boob School, combines short, actionable lessons with live support calls and a private community, helping families address challenges and feel more confident throughout their feeding journey. The Balanced Boob also offers personalized lactation consultations through a team of IBCLCs, with free or low-cost, insurance-covered visits noted on the site. Additional resources include a free prenatal class, latching guide, breastfeeding preparation workbook, articles, workshops, newsletters, and product recommendations. Topics include preparing to breastfeed, latching, milk supply, pumping, and common difficulties. The brand’s approach emphasizes evidence-informed education, real-time troubleshooting, and support tailored to each family, rather than one-size-fits-all advice. Through its courses, consultations, and free resources, The Balanced Boob aims to make breastfeeding feel less isolating and more manageable, from the first latch through the end of a family’s breastfeeding journey.
