“We were struggling to exclusively breastfeed our little one until we found out he had tongue-tie. Karen Peck and Kidspace were highly recommended by different people and were a game-changer in our breastfeeding journey. We did a bodywork with pre and post-tongue-tie release. Karen is a highly skilled and intuitive bodyworker with expertise in ties. Also, at Kidspace, they use a team approach so we did consult with Dr. Vallone as well. We felt empowered and supported as parents to keep pursuing our breastfeeding goals. I can not say enough good things about the treatment we received at Kidspace and how grateful we are to have them part of our (successful) breastfeeding journey.”

“Dr. Faraneh at Kidspace made all the difference in our newborn son’s ability to nurse correctly and for the painful discomfort I was feeling to completely subside. I suspected oral ties in my son, and Dr. Faraneh did a thorough evaluation and confirmed that the ties were significant enough to warrant revision. As a new mom I was uneasy about the idea of getting the revision, but Dr. Faraneh put my mind at ease that we were making the correct decision and that she’d support us along the way.
She gave us special stretches to prepare baby’s mouth and provided detailed follow up visits. Dr. Faraneh’s gentle, good-vibes approach made what could have been a distressing process one of positivity and healing. Her evaluation was correct and following her advice helped us move from painful, ineffective nursing to a proper latch and body comfort for both baby and mama in a matter of weeks! Aside from mouth work, Dr. Faraneh also helped gently correct our son’s body alignment which also led to more comfort and ease during nursing for both of us! Now that nursing is comfortable we can focus on enjoying the special bond and nurturing it brings.”
