Danielle Mitchell: I have four Children and I'm also a small business owner as a dietician and a licensed professional counselor.
Danielle Mitchell: And so all of this breast milk is something I worked so hard for. Um and that, you know, could be beneficial for him, but it wasn't something that was gonna save past, you know, a safe date. So I found out about Milkify and as a dietician kind of did my research and looked into, um just the, the unique process that Milkify is using to preserve breast milk um in a freeze dried form. And it occurred to me that if we proceeded with freezing all of my breast milk that we would have shell stable milk for my baby. Um as he became a toddler um for up to three years. And so it was a no brainer for us to take all of that milk and have it all freeze dried using milk process.
Ava Tobey: Milkify is literally the best a time that it's helped me is actually pretty recent. I went across state for a wedding and instead of having to pack a massive cooler full of frozen milk, I was able just to pack a few milky bags. It made it super easy for my family to know exactly how to feed my little guy as well as uh gives my husband some of his deep freezer back.
Anna Kerber: pumping Milk if I made it possible for me to make that goal or reach that goal of giving her breast milk till she was 12 months old. I had plenty of milk, freeze dried milk to last the trip. And even when I returned and I ran out of uh frozen milk in the freezer, I was able to use the freeze dried milk to help make it to that one year mark for my daughter.
Carly Revier: A time that milk I helped me was when my daughter started daycare, she started when she was about eight months old. And up until that time, she had been mostly exclusively breastfed. So I had no idea how much milk to send with her.
Carly Revier: Um But because I was able to get it freeze dried, I had this great stash that really helped my family as we transitioned to daycare and also tried to transition to formula so that I could supplement once the milk of fly supply ran out. Um So thanks to Milkify, that transition was made so much easier and made me feel really confident in what I was able to send my daughter to daycare with, to make sure she was getting the right food and nutrients
Lexi Kroft: We move at least twice a year for my husband's job. So, Milkify that has been essential in helping us transfer our milk stash during each move, we've had two kids in the last two years and I've had a pretty significant oversupply with both of them. So we're talking large quantities anywhere from 500 100 to 2000 ounces a move. And they have been absolutely essential in helping us get our milk to them in a cost effective way and getting it back to us quickly and efficiently so that we can carry on with our moves and make sure that everybody is well fed.
Emily Kidder: Milkify helped me tremendously. After the birth of my first child, I was able to take packets on the go and make bottles right there on the spot. Um When it might have been more inconvenient to breastfeed, for example. Um I'm really grateful that I had milk as an option.
Katherine Boulet: I used Milkify um a couple of months ago. Um I had about 300 oz of frozen breast milk and I used a local drop-off service to freeze dry my milk.
Katherine Boulet: Um and my baby seems to love it. Um I freed up my entire freezer that was full of milk before and now I just am able to stash a bag in his diaper bag in my purse or wherever we're going. Um, and it works just like formula. It's so cool.
Samantha Meyer: out this company and I found Milkify through a friend and I immediately sent my milk off. And before we even left for the wedding, I had all of these pouches left and I had just enough milk to bring with us for the wedding. And it was just so convenient. I mean, even my mother-in-law was able to just rip open the package and make the bottles.
Hi, my name is Shelley and I am a mom that is so thankful for Milkify. I had a baby that was born about three years ago. And over the course of nursing, her developed a great milk supply in the freezer which I sent out to milk to turn into freeze dried breast milk that I never really used. She grew up and my supply never changed. So we had a a great breastfeeding relationship. But then when my third baby was born right in the height of the formula shortage, I had a great supply of my own breast milk that I had a lot of confidence in as being the best choice for my baby. Um Even though there was no formula around. So I was born, he was born with peace of mind knowing that uh regardless of what our breastfeeding journey was, I had good healthy um milk in the house for him. Should we need it? Thanks Milkify. If I
Nicole Mesita: Hi, my name is Nicole and I, um, started using Milkify when my second daughter was probably around three or four months old. Um, she was born with a cleft palate so she didn't have a roof of her mouth. And this made feeding really difficult. Unfortunately, I couldn't
Nicole Mesita: So because of this, um, my pediatrician recommended to start fortifying her, um, bottles, which means essentially adding in formula to make her milk more nutrient dense so that she could gain, um, gain weight. So I started to do that um, unfortunately she had really bad reflux from, um, the, um, formula that we were using. And it was like, it was so devastating because I was, had to get her to gain weight, but she wasn't gaining weight because she was, um, th, like, spitting up and throwing up all the time because of this formula. Um, it was awful. It was so, so hard. So, somehow I came across Milkify, I think it was from, I was listening to a podcast or something. I, I honestly don't even remember how I learned about it, but I was like, oh my gosh, like I have to try this. And luckily I had so much milk that was frozen. Um and it wasn't, um it was, I had like a surplus of milk. So I felt like that this was something I could do. So I sent it away. It was such an easy process like they did, they just made it so easy for me to do. They made me feel really comfortable with sending my milk in and I um got it back and I started to use that as a fortifier for um my daughter's bottles and it was like night and day. Like she loved it. She um wasn't um um throwing up or having reflux anymore and she started gaining weight and it was, I honestly feel like Milkify I like saved, saved us a hospital admission easily. We probably would have if we didn't
