About me

Hi! I'm Arinola a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) located in Cypress, TX. I'm a mum of two boys, and my own breastfeeding journeys taught me that every feeding experience is unique. My approach is rooted in evidence-based while honoring each family's individual goals, circumstances and values. I am passionate about helping parents feel confident, informed and supported as they navigate feeding their baby. I understand that life with a new baby can be busy and unpredictable, so I strive to provide practical, personalized support that fits into real family life. When I'm not supporting families, you can find me spending time with family, listening to audiobooks and enjoying icecream.

When I had my second baby, I thought breastfeeding would be easy because with my first child it wasn’t so difficult but I was in for a surprise. It was actually harder and painful. Talking with Arinola really helped me to overcome some of the obstacles that I had especially at a time time when I didn’t even think I’ll be able to breastfeed again because I had to pump exclusively for a while. Arinola was so helpful, teaching me how to use my breast pump properly and how to improve my milk supply. I literally saw my milk supply increase in real time after my supply had dipped - thanks to Arinola. I remember that joyful feeling of seeing all the milk I had produced. One thing I really liked about working with Arinola is that I never felt judged. She listened to me and I was very comfortable sharing my concerns and needs. She never once questioned my goals and there was no ounce of judgement from her which is so important when moms are in a very vulnerable space after having a baby. I definitely recommend Arinola to anyone who needs help with nursing or pumping. She is awesome. She really helped me reach my goal of nursing my child and I’m still nursing him. Thank you.
