Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in Apopka, FL

Hey Y'all, My name is Kara. I fell in love with the idea of helping families during their birth and postpartum journey after having Ovarian Cancer, and having a total hysterectomy. Although I was no longer able to physically have any more children, I realized so many families lack the support they need and want to bring their babies into this world. Nor do they have the support those crucial first few month once baby is home. I include the entire family during each process. Whether it's parents, siblings, or even fur babies. I would love to help set the foundation that will carry your family through this incredible journey by building a strong relationship of trust and guidance. My knowledge includes, but is not limited to lactation, childbirth education, breastfeeding , massage therapy, infant care, birth, and postpartum services and procedures. I recognize that every individual and every birth is unique, and I strive to create a customized birth plan that aligns with your preferences, values, and desires. Whether you are planning a natural birth, a water birth, or a medically-assisted birth, I will work closely with you and your healthcare team to ensure that your needs are met and your voice is heard. My goal is to empower you with evidence-based information and emotional support, helping you navigate the various stages of labor with confidence and peace of mind. By choosing me as your doula, you can rest assured that you will receive unwavering support, advocacy, and guidance throughout your entire journey. I know that choosing a doula for your birth and postpartum experience is a decision that can greatly enhance and empower your journey into parenthood, and I am dedicated to providing unparalleled support and care. As a trained and experienced doula, I bring a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and a deep understanding of the physical and emotional aspects of childbirth and everything encompassing postpartum. From prenatal visits to postpartum care, I am committed to being a trusted companion throughout your entire birthing and postpartum process.

Strength in Serenity is the embodiment and the symbol of the ceremonial rite of passage that occurs during the birthing moment. I started Strength in Serenity in September 2025.
