A note from the founder of Milkify

Since 2019, Milkify has supported parents around the world who want a better way to preserve the milk they worked so hard to produce.

We started Milkify after seeing how much time, energy, and care goes into pumping—and how limited the options were for safely storing milk long term. Freezers fill up. Travel gets complicated. Milk expires. And too often, that effort goes to waste.

Our mission has been simple from the beginning: help families protect what matters, without adding more stress to an already demanding season of life.

Every process we’ve built, every improvement we’ve made, and every decision we take is guided by that goal—making milk storage safer, more reliable, and more flexible for parents everywhere.

Thank you for trusting us with something so important.

With love, Dr. Berkley Luck (founder of milkify)
