“She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.”
Proverbs 31:20
What is The Bridge Program?
The Bridge Program is the charitable arm of Bonding Lactation, a lactation practice serving Texas families since 2021.
We believe that lactation support should be standard for all families. And we believe that the cost of care should never be the reason a family goes without it.
Through The Bridge Program Clinic in Willow Park, TX, every family, regardless of income, has access to expert, evidence-based lactation support on a sliding-scale. For those who are open to it, the love of Jesus is offered freely alongside the clinical care.
We serve everyone. We exclude no one. You are welcome here.
How The Bridge Program works
1. Apply
Fill out our simple intake form. There is no income verification required — we trust you. Your privacy is protected.
2. We reach out
Our team will contact you within 1-4 business days to schedule your first visit and discuss your fee on the sliding scale.
3. Come as you are
Walk through our doors in Willow Park. You will be met with expert care, zero judgment, and a whole lot of love.
You belong here.
The Bridge Program is for any family that needs lactation support and faces financial barriers to accessing it. You do not need to prove your income. You do not need insurance. You do not need to look a certain way or come from a certain background.
We serve families of all backgrounds, beliefs, and walks of life. We are a faith-based practice — meaning our faith shapes how we love and serve — but you do not need to share our faith to receive care. Everyone is welcome.
We help with
Latch difficulty and pain
Low milk supply concerns
Pumping and returning to work
Tongue tie evaluation and support
Newborn weight gain concerns
General breastfeeding support and encouragement
We are a ministry.
The Bridge Program is an independent, faith-based healthcare ministry. We believe that God cares deeply about mothers, babies, and families — and that caring for them is an act of worship.
For families who are open to it, we offer prayer, encouragement from Scripture, and the hope of the gospel of Jesus Christ — always gently, always freely, never required.
You are safe here — whatever you believe.
Rooted in Texas since 2021.
The Bridge Program is brought to you by Bonding Lactation, a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) practice serving Texas families since 2021. What began in Austin has grown to serve Tarrant and Parker Counties, and now Willow Park is home.
Mary Melissa Webster, IBCLC, founded the Bridge Program after seeing the same story again and again: moms who desperately wanted to breastfeed, but had no one to call — and no way to pay for help. The Bridge Program is her answer to that.
Keyana Harris is a Certified Lactation Counselor and Licensed Midwife with over ten years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum season. She has cared for hundreds of mothers and families across home, birth center, and hospital settings—bringing both clinical expertise and a calm, steady presence into every space she enters.
As a mother of three, Keyana understands firsthand how vulnerable and transformative the breastfeeding journey can be. She has walked through many of the same challenges she now helps women navigate and is passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based support that helps mothers feel confident, seen, and supported, especially in communities where access to care is limited.
