As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I provide personalized support from pregnancy through the breastfeeding journey. I help families prepare for breastfeeding before baby arrives, offer in home visits for reassurance and troubleshooting, and provide guidance on pumping, milk supply, and returning to work. I have experience supporting premature infants, multiples, and a wide range of feeding challenges, helping families meet their breastfeeding goals with evidence-based, compassionate care.

Amanda is the best when it comes to lc (I’ve seen many). She is understanding and emotionally involved every step of the way. Breastfeeding is already a struggle so finding someone who comes from a place of no judgment and respects your needs is important. I recommend Amanda to every mom to be who is looking for the best kind of support.

Amanda was amazing for my breastfeeding journey! The first few months I wasn’t sure if we’d make it to even 3 months and now we’re gonna finish out a whole year soon. Came to us which was super helpful with a newborn.
