Danielle Donovan — Lactation Consultant, MA & Virtual/Anywhere

ABOUT THEM

Hi, I'm Danielle Donovan, RN, BSN, IBCLC—the founder of Latched at First Sight and a proud mom of three energetic girls ages 9, 6, and 2.

What began as a passion for helping families navigate feeding and newborn care has grown into a dedicated team of professionals committed to supporting parents during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. Our team includes six nurse-IBCLCs, a Speech-Language Pathologist, and ten Registered Nurses specializing in newborn and infant care.

Together, we provide support with breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, latch concerns, milk supply, infant feeding challenges, and individualized feeding plans. We also offer daytime and overnight newborn care services, helping families feel confident, rested, and supported during the early months with their baby.

We proudly provide in-home visits throughout Massachusetts, virtual consultations, and office appointments in Franklin, MA.

At Latched at First Sight, we believe every family deserves compassionate, judgment-free care. Whether you're preparing for your baby's arrival, navigating feeding challenges, or simply looking for reassurance along the way, we're here to support you every step of the journey.

The Founder's Note

"Danielle is truly one of the kindest souls you’ll ever meet. She has such a naturally maternal, nurturing presence - exactly who you want beside you during one of the most vulnerable seasons of motherhood. I was amazed by how much of Massachusetts her practice serves, allowing her to care for women and families across the state with so much warmth, patience and genuine compassion."

— Olivia, Founder of The List

You'll love working with them if…

  • When I became a mom, I quickly realized that feeding a baby doesn't always come naturally—and neither does navigating the emotions, questions, and challenges that come with it. That's why I created Latched at First Sight.

  • My mission is simple: to ensure every family feels supported, informed, and never alone. Whether your journey includes breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, or a combination of it all, you deserve compassionate care without judgment.

now for the good stuff...

Coffee is a MUST — like, auto-programmed and ready for me the second I wake up kind of coffee.
Current obsession
Watching my girls grow, thrive, and do what they love most.
Go-to movie or show
I don't really have a go-to show. I'm always trying something new!
