"Allison Stamm worked with us with patience and kindness to help our newborn learn to breastfeed, as well as bottle feed. She did an amazing job of identifying which problems could be addressed by changing what we were doing (e.g., positioning the baby), which things could be improved through exercises, and which things would improve simply as our son got older and stronger. This understanding helped us know what to work on and what to have patience with. In the end, our son breastfed until ten months and was able to drink his bottles at daycare. Without Allison's help, I'm not sure what we would have done.”
"As a brand new (single) mom to a tiny baby on oxygen, life was feeling incredibly overwhelming. Our pediatrician referred us to Allison Micek Lammers, and thank goodness he did. Allison provided exercises that helped Penelope learn how to suck more efficiently, patiently sat through feeding with us to ensure her latch was correct, did before and after weight checks to make sure she was transferring enough and gave us tools and exercises to work on at home. Within weeks Penelope was eating faster, gaining weight like crazy, and I was able to trust my new role as a mom more and more each appointment. Allison Micek Lammers is excellent at producing results but more (most importantly) her down to earth nature, kindness & empathy helped us to feel incredibly supported during a very fragile time."
"I would 100% recommend Jeanne! My daughter loves her and looks forward to their time together every week. Jeanne's energy, extensive knowledge, thoughtful and thorough assessments, excitement and sincere love of helping kids, makes kids love her and parents feel at ease knowing their child is getting the best care possible, The in-house OT is beyond helpful because it allows my child to feel comfortable and get the most out of her time. Jeanne noticed things about my daughter that previous doctors had overlooked and each week reassess her treatment to make sure that my daughter is not only progressing but is happy. I am thankful and appreciative that OT is such a positive experience for my daughter. Jeanne is the best and we feel very lucky to have her as our practitioner."
"Allison Stamm came into our life when our daughter was about six months old. Our daughter did not even have the muscle tone to close her mouth at that time. Over the length of a few short years, Allison had her drinking from straw sippy cups and eating everything (I mean everything) by mouth!! That in itself meant the world to our family. On top of that, she helped us identify and get connected with other specialists that became critical for her development. She is so knowledgeable and patient with children. She immediately got to know our daughter, to know when to push her a little harder, and when to sit back and let it be. We have so much to thank her for, I could never get it all out!"
"Allison Micek Lammers helped our 6-month-old, who was not taking a bottle or a sippy cup. Within 20 minutes of a visit, Allison had her drinking from a honey-bear sippy cup. She quickly graduated to bottles and other sippy cups because of the help Allison provided. Allison gave us a ton of good info and techniques to ensure our baby eats a wide variety of foods (both flavor and texture) to promote adventurous eating."
"Our daughter adamantly refused to take a bottle, so our pediatrician referred us to Allison Micek Lammers. Allison took the time to understand the intricate details of our situation. With great confidence, she began to educate our family and taught us how to successfully give our baby a bottle. With such a focus on education, we were able to understand why these issues had surfaced and quickly changed lifestyle behavior to ensure it wouldn’t happen again. Our interaction with Allison Micek Lammers meant everything to us. We are so thankful for the information she brought to our family, not only about the bottle feeding but food/self-eating as well."
