Lactation Support

The Center for Pediatric Medicine is committed to providing you and your baby with the highest quality health care. To assist you in giving your baby the healthiest start possible, we are pleased to offer lactation support services.

Lisa can be reached at 203-798-7661 EXT 106 or please call the main number today: 203-790-0822 and CPM team member will assist you.

Breastfeeding is a natural process, but it is not always easy. During the first few weeks there is a lot to learn about how mother’s breasts function, and how this baby feeds. No one set of rules exists to guide you. Each mother and child are different. That’s why we are here to support you through the process.

After you and your baby are discharged from the hospital, you will be contacted by our Lactation Consultant, Lisa Boulé. She will assess the status of feeding with you, answer any questions you may have, and set up the first visit in our office.

In addition to being a Lactation Consultant, Lisa is also Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. During the first visit, your baby will be weighed and examined by Lisa, then she will monitor a feeding to help assess and troubleshoot any issues you might be having. Lisa is also available for simple telephone consultations to answer any questions that you may have throughout your breastfeeding experience.

The Lactation Room is located at 7 Old Sherman Turnpike- Suite 202, Danbury, CT 06810. (The Lactation Room is located in the practices’ billing office suite.) If you cannot negotiate stairs there is a handicap entrance at the rear of the building with access to an elevator. When you come for this visit, we ask that you come with the baby fairly hungry.

The Lactation Consults are billed out through your medical insurance as an office visit. Most insurances cover the cost of the visit. If you have questions concerning coverage, please contact your insurance company.

Congratulations! Here’s to a healthy start!

After Hours

Center for Pediatric Medicine is here for your pediatric needs 24.7, 365 days a year! We understand that your child may get sick outside of CPM’s normal office hours.

How does after-hours work:

  • Monday – Thursday: our offices will close at 9:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Friday.
  • Friday- our offices will close at 6:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Saturday.
  • Saturday- our office will close at 2:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Sunday.
  • Sunday- our office will close at 1:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Monday.

During the hours we are closed we are readily available to assist you with any urgent clinical concerns you may have.

You can call any of our office locations or 203-790-0822. You will be promoted with an after-hours message. If you select option 1 you will be connected with CPM’S after-hours answering service team. The after-hours team will gather all of your child’s information (Patient's first and last name, best contact number, and health care concern). This message will be sent to “Rainbow Babies” an experienced triage service that CPM uses to assist us with clinical after-hours calls. A trained triage nurse will call the patient back and provide the recommended clinical advice. If the triage nurse needs more assistance they will reach out to one of CPM’s on-call providers for the night. CPM’s on-call provider will call the patient directly and continue to evaluate your child over the phone. All phone call encounters are followed up with a call the next day from CPM’s triage department.

If it is a life-threatening emergency please call 911.
