About Me


 

I am a stay at home mom to 4 beautiful children and married to my best friend. I grew up in a large family where breastfeeding was the norm, so when it came time to feed my own baby, I never gave it much thought since I knew I wanted to breastfeed. However, we had so many issues surrounding feeding, but somehow made it through. When my son was born, he also had issues breastfeeding, so I met with a lactation consultant and that changed everything for me. I realized that something so natural, isn’t always instinctual but with the right tools and knowledge it can be so enjoyable and is very rewarding!

 

Qualifications.

I have over 6+ years of personal experience and have personally breastfed through oral ties, high oral pallet, allergies, colic, low weight gain, pregnancy, tandem, extended breastfeeding (beyond 2 years of age), aversion, oversupply and more.

I have over 150+ hours of evidence based lactation training. I am a Certified Lactation Counselor and a Certified Advanced Lactation Specialist with training in all different aspects of lactation. I have worked in both a private practice and in a hospital setting, working with parents prenatally - after birth - in the NICU - weaning and beyond.

I chose to pursue lactation so I that could help other families and I look forward to helping you and your baby meet your feeding goals!
