Being an IBCLC in private practice involves more than just working with families. You need a rock solid foundation for documenting, communicating, and reporting—not to mention navigate HIPAA compliance. Wish you had an experienced guide who could simplify everything?
As an IBCLC in private practice, I'm in the trenches with you—charting visits, sending reports to pediatricians, and reassuring my clients.
Like you, I'd rather focus my time doing what I love—working with families—instead of managing paperwork. And while I'll go the extra mile to respond to an anxious client outside of business hours, I don't want to stay up late finishing up my charting.
By going paperless, I've transformed my private practice into a smoothly running machine that works for me. My paperless systems enable my IBCLC clients to make more money doing exactly what they love. And because they're no longer bogged down with paperwork or worrying whether their practice is compliant with current regulations, they feel more relaxed and have time to enjoy their own families and life!
“I need to give a shout out to Annie Frisbie. She has coached me and consulted as I started my private practice. She’s been nothing but amazing. She’s experienced, thorough and goes above and beyond with her customization.
Annie also helped to build my website. Her efficiency and direction were priceless. I absolutely love my site now and my practice feels complete.
Thank you for everything, Annie. You won’t regret working with her. ❤️”
Everything you need to envision, set up, optimize, and enjoy your calling as a lactation consultant in private practice.
I’ve been using Spruce for the better part of a year now and I have been extremely pleased with how well it’s performed for me and met my specific practice needs.
Lactation visits are unique in healthcare because most of the time we’re working with a parent and their baby (or babies). That’s why in my book on private practice I compare our work to couples therapy. Our job is to bring two people together, and these two people may have very different times.

Working with Annie, will make you realize that no matter how effective your workflow is, there is room for improvement and Annie is truly the person to take your practice and your business to a higher level of efficacy and success.

“I am just starting out with my private IBCLC practice so this EBook came right on time and is SO comprehensive. I hired Annie for a two hour coaching session to go over the most important things together and it saved me a lot of time! Having someone sit next to you and explain everything, show you all charting options, Fax providers, etc. was tremendously helpful. The book alone is great but I also highly recommend Annie’s coaching services!”
