Meet Cecily
Hey! I'm Cecily Solomon, your certified breastfeeding specialist, postpartum doula, and founder of Loving the Mama Postpartum Services. My interest in postpartum services began during the fourth trimester with my son. As a first time mama, I experienced many challenges navigating lactation due to latching issues, milk production, balancing work and breastfeeding, all while feeling the need to have more services catering to my African American culture. During the early days of my 20 month journey of breastfeeding, I fought many tough times alone. Now, I am committed to providing the personalized, compassionate postpartum support to families, that I wish I had. So here, at Loving the Mama, we will strive to provide a safe, inclusive space where everyone feels heard, supported, and respected. I look forward to working with you during your 4th trimester!

Inclusivity Statement
At Loving the Mama Postpartum Services, we are deeply committed to providing inclusive, respectful, and affirming postpartum support for all individuals and families. We recognize that every family's journey is unique, and we proudly serve a wide range of family structures and identities, including LGBTQIA+ families, adoptive parents, solo parents, surrogate-involved families, and individuals across the gender spectrum.
Throughout this website and our materials, you may see terms such as “mom,” “mother,” or “mama.” These words are used with love and familiarity, but they are not intended to exclude those who use different titles, pronouns, or identities. We honor and affirm all birthing and postpartum individuals regardless of gender identity or expression.
We also use the term “breastfeeding” in places, but please know we equally support and recognize chestfeeding, bodyfeeding, and all forms of human milk feeding. Your language preferences matter to us, and we are dedicated to creating a space where you feel seen, respected, and supported.
If you have specific pronouns, titles, or language you’d like us to use, we welcome and encourage you to share them with us.
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your postpartum care journey. 🤍
