New Little Life is a pumping and breastfeeding education platform founded by IBCLC and Nurse Allison Tolman. For over a decade, Allison has helped thousands of parents understand and master their milk supply: as an IBCLC, as the creator of the New Little Life channel on YouTube, as a private pumping coach to over 330 working moms, and most recently as the creator of New Little Life’s Pumping and Milk Supply courses.
She is also the inventor of the BPVMS (the "Boobie Barometer™"), a real-time testing system featured in The Washington Post, which she uses to evaluate breast pumps for suction strength, cycle, speed, and functionality - providing real data you can’t find anywhere else.
