Lactation Services

You are not alone! Breastfeeding is natural, but it is also learned. As a lactation consultant I am passionate about guiding new parents through this beautiful process.

We will develop a unique plan specific to you and your baby’s needs. No matter the difficulty, my lactation certification allows me to assess your baby’s feeding habits and your technique to provide you with tools and expert advice to empower you as a new mother.

During a personalized evaluation, I will weigh your baby, observe a feeding, and perform an oral examination of your baby. Here you can feel free to discuss any questions or concerns. I do everything I can to create a safe space for new parents and their babies. It is important that you feel comfortable and open with your breastfeeding consultant, and as your breastfeeding consultant/lactation consultant, this is my priority.
