About me
      Hi there! I'm Ashley Garrison, and I've been a lactation consultant for 13 years and an RN for 17 years. I provide in-home and virtual lactation consulting services in Pittsboro, NC and the surrounding areas within the Triangle. I specialize in difficult latches and sucks, low milk supply, exclusive pumping, tongue ties, NICU infants, premature, late preterm, and small for gestational age infants. I have worked in a variety of healthcare settings, such as hospitals and a pediatric clinic. I have a practical approach and customize my families' plans of care based on their needs and goals. I can't wait to meet you where you're at!
