Free Lactation Consultant
Service Agreement
One bad latch complaint or a messy medical misunderstanding will gut your bank account and bury your reputation under legal fees. Without a signed paper trail, you're just handing out free ammunition for a malpractice suit that'll bleed you dry.
Pro Contractor Tip
Include a 'Limitation of Liability' clause to cap your financial exposure and keep one bad day from bankrupting your entire operation.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Lactation Consultant, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I do when a client expects 24/7 text support after a single visit?
Your contract needs to define a 'Communication Boundary' that lists specific follow-up hours and durations so you aren't providing free labor on your own time.
How do I get paid if the session turns into a three-hour marathon because of a fussy baby?
Set a 'Fixed Session Duration' in the agreement and state clearly that any time beyond that limit is billed at a premium hourly rate to protect your schedule.
What if the client cancels right as I pull into their driveway?
You need a 'Late Cancellation Fee' written in stone so you aren't eating the gas money and the lost opportunity cost of another paying gig.
