Hi everyone! I’m Sarah, an IBCLC and the founder of Sweet Nectar Lactation & Infant Feeding Support.

My approach is all about support without pressure, meeting you where you are, and helping you feel confident in your feeding journey. I believe every baby and parent deserve care that’s both evidence-based and deeply compassionate, and that’s what I aim to provide. If you ever need guidance, reassurance, or just someone to help make things a little easier, I’m here for you.

Hello! I'm Lauren the founder of Lactation with Lauren. I am a RN since 2009 at a large birthing hospital in Maryland and an IBCLC for the last 8 years and counting. I love that each family I work with has their own story and their own journey. I am honored to be part of each situation as we find the next right thing and reach personalized goals. When I am not using my IBCLC skills I love to spend time with my husband, 3 school aged kids, and standard poodle. We enjoy visiting extended family members spread out along the East Coast, hiking in Patapsco State Park and traveling by airplane to new places when we have extra time together.

Hello everyone! My Name is Kirsten Halstead. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with more than 25 years of lactation support experience, and a Registered Nurse with over 35 years of experience in maternal child nursing, I can provide you with the care and support to help you meet your feeding goals. I understand the importance of providing support for parents as they navigate the joys and challenges of breastfeeding. It’s not always easy, but it’s worth it! Human milk is the best nutrition for baby humans, as it is specifically tailored to their needs. Breastfeeding is also a learned skill that is traditionally passed down through families. In the past, all babies were breastfed and new parents had the support of their own family members to guide them through the process. Today, many parents may not live close to their extended families, and the availability of formula has led to a decline in breastfeeding knowledge and rates. It's important to remember that breastfeeding is a natural and beautiful thing, and with the right support and resources, most parents can learn to breastfeed successfully.

Hello, my name is Allison Smigiel I am a registered nurse and lactation consultant. My nursing practice started because I wanted to find another way to support parents as they go through the transformational process of pregnancy and parenthood. I believe in empowering women and families by providing evidence-based information, partnership, and support to help them achieve their goals. My love for Obstetrics started after I saw my first birth in nursing school; I have spent the majority of my 16 years as a nurse working in labor & maternity units, and as a lactation consultant.

Hello, I’m Mandisa L’Bert-Kaalima, RN-BSN, IBCLC, proudly serving families in Summit County. I bring over 14 years of experience in healthcare, having worked in local hospitals throughout Akron and most recently within a Community-Based Organization. These experiences have given me valuable insight into the challenges and barriers many mothers face when working toward their breastfeeding and infant feeding goals. For more than 8 years, I have supported mothers on their breastfeeding journeys—beginning as a NICU staff nurse and Certified Breastfeeding Counselor, and later as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). My IBCLC work has spanned postpartum, labor and delivery, special care nurseries, and now the community setting. As a mother of three who experienced my own breastfeeding challenges, I understand firsthand how difficult this journey can be—especially without education and support. At Nurtured by Mandisa, we offer a range of services designed to meet families where they are, including prenatal education, interactive breastfeeding workshops, private in-home visits, virtual consultations, monthly support groups, and personalized one-on-one sessions. My goal is to support you with compassion and encouragement, helping you meet your infant feeding goals while celebrating every milestone in a nurturing and supportive environment.

Patrycja Ptak BSN,RNC-NIC, IBCLC I've been a nurse in a Level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) for nearly 20 years, and have supported breastfeeding in the NICU/Postpartum Units as an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) for 10 years. On my journey, I recognized early on the importance of empowering mothers with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate feeding related challenges.

I have been an internationally board certified lactation consultant since 2020. I strive to help families succeed to reach their breastfeeding goals. I take a holistic approach and seek alternative therapies to helping parents and babies thrive in the newly postpartum period.

Becoming a lactation consultant has been a deeply personal journey for me. I remember the challenges I faced seeking accessible breastfeeding support and the frustration of finding that care wasn’t always within reach. I feel that no family should have to navigate these hurdles alone. I graduated from the University of Arkansas in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Communication Disorders (speech-language pathology). After my husband and I welcomed our first child, I discovered my true passion in breastfeeding and lactation. I then completed my Certified Breastfeeding Specialist certification in 2020. I began a clinical internship in 2022 at Timpanogos Regional Hospital in Orem, Utah, where I worked until 2024 in the mother-baby unit, NICU, and pediatric settings. I became an IBCLC in 2024 and started my private practice. My greatest joy is being a mom to my four children. I've experienced nearly every positive aspect of lactation, as well as its many challenges. My passion lies in offering support that is free of judgment and tailored to fit your family's unique lifestyle.
