Lactation Consultant

A lactation consultant is someone who has been specifically trained in the entire process of breastfeeding, from your baby’s first latch through the weaning process. Although breastfeeding should be natural, it doesn’t always feel that way. It is a learning process for both mom & baby, and a lactation consultant can help support you throughout your breastfeeding experience.

A former techie from the healthcare and insurance industries, I found my calling as a Postpartum care provider when I witnessed the lack of postpartum support for moms after the birth of my son. I am a CAPPA trained postpartum doula, a mom and constant learner about various aspects of breastfeeding and newborn care. My mission is to help new moms and parents thrive by providing them tools and support to navigate parenthood.

Feeding your child from your amazing body and watching them grow is one of the most powerful experiences of a parent’s life. An enjoyable breast/bodyfeeding experience is built on a solid foundation of knowledge, support, and personal commitment. My passion is meeting families right where they are to listen and guide them toward a rewarding breast/bodyfeeding experience.

I believe all parents deserve quality, non-judgmental lactation support and breastfeeding/chestfeeding education in the comfort of their homes. I’ve helped over 2,000 families resolve their feeding challenges and raise happy, healthy babies. I love helping families when they need it the most in a calm and non-judgmental way, and I am an LBGTQI ally.

A love of all things pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding came from having my two sons. Helping mamas and babies is truly a passion. During my first ever consultation where I shadowed a certified lactation consultant, that mentor said to me, "I feel that you have a calling in this field." I couldn't agree more. It is my honor to help parents reach their infant feeding goals, whatever they may be.

As an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I truly enjoy every aspect of my "job." I hesitate to call it that because it is so much more than that. I understand the struggle moms are going through. Although this time is incredible, it can be pretty darn hard. I love supporting and helping to navigate families through this overwhelming snippet of time.
