Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in Blackwood, NJ

I’m an RN and IBCLC who believes mothers deserve better information, better support, and better outcomes. My work centers on helping women understand their bodies—especially during pregnancy, postpartum, and breastfeeding—so they can make confident, informed decisions about their health and their babies. I specialize in complex feeding challenges like painful latch, low milk supply, and tongue tie, but my approach goes beyond fixing symptoms. I focus on the physiology, the family system, and the lived experience of motherhood so that care is practical, compassionate, and deeply individualized. Through my lactation practice, education for healthcare providers, and hormone-focused coaching, I help families move from confusion and overwhelm to clarity and confidence. My philosophy is simple: when mothers are given accurate education, skilled support, and respect for their intuition, they become powerful advocates for themselves and their children. My goal is not just to solve problems in the moment—but to equip women with knowledge that serves them for a lifetime. My work exists at the intersection of postpartum, lactation and hormone wellness - I have specialized training in complex feeding challenges including low milk supply, tongue/lip tie assessment and management, and hormone imbalances.

Hi 👋 I’m Kristen, a NICU nursing assistant and a lactation consultant. I love to help you and your family with all your feeding goals

Hi, I’m Bri ! I am a DONA-certified doula who specializes in what happens after the baby arrives. Because let’s be honest, postpartum is hard, and you shouldn’t have to figure it out alone. I’m here for the sleepless nights, the emotional waves, the questions you’re afraid to ask, and everything in between. I also support families in building birth plans they actually feel confident about including C-section preparation, so nothing catches you off guard. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, judgment-free, and genuinely in your corner. When you work with me, you feel it. I became a doula because I know what it feels like to need support and not have it. That experience drives everything I do. When you work with me, you can expect real, hands-on care such as help with newborn feeding, recovery support, emotional check-ins, and someone who actually listens. No scripts, no rushing you along. And if you’re sitting there feeling scared or overwhelmed; that’s exactly who I’m here for.

I am Daniela from the Across The Spectrum Doula LLC, passionately I’m dedicated to guiding and supporting you through your incredible journey to motherhood. My roots are in the vibrant community of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and have instilled in me a lifelong mission to positively impact lives, especially those of mothers and children. My own path, marked by the joys of motherhood and the heartache of pregnancy losses, deepened my understanding of the need for compassionate, full-spectrum doula care. This personal connection to motherhood's highs and lows fueled my desire to be the support I once needed and to extend that support to you.

I have been a registered nurse for almost 30 years helping women & their children, including babies in the Intensive Care Nursery at a major urban hospital.

I believe that breastfeeding is a relationship between a mother and her child, but it is not necessarily without its learning curves, for both mom and baby! If you or your baby are not happy on your breastfeeding journey, please consider making an appointment. I would be honored to help you, and no issue is too small. In fact, moms usually remark, “Why didn’t I do this earlier!” Click on the My Philosophy link to learn more about me.

Hello, and welcome! My name is Shaniqua, and I am a birth doula and birthing assistant currently completing my professional training. I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based support to growing families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My journey into birth work is deeply personal. I was inspired by my mother’s birth story and my own experiences navigating pregnancy and Cesarean births. Those experiences showed me how important it is for every mother to feel informed, heard, respected, and supported. Especially when birth doesn’t go exactly as planned. While I have a special passion for supporting families preparing for or recovering from Cesarean births, I am honored to support mothers and families through all types of birth experiences. My goal is to help you feel empowered to make informed decisions, advocate for your needs, and approach your birth with confidence and peace of mind. As I continue my training and education, I remain committed to learning, growing, and providing compassionate care rooted in respect, empathy, and continuous improvement. I believe every birth story matters, and it would be a privilege to walk alongside you during one of the most meaningful journeys of your life. Thank you for considering me to be a part of your birth team. I look forward to supporting you with kindness, encouragement, and wholehearted care every step of the way.

I am a mom to two boys, Judah & Roman, who inspired me to start on this journey of helping mothers learn to overcome breastfeeding hurdles when I hit my own very early on. I had very different issues to work through with both boys, but with the help of my "village" that included very supportive friends, family, and IBCLCs both in and out of the hospital setting, I was able to reach my own personal breastfeeding goals. That is what I'm here to help moms do today - reach goals unique to each and every mom out there by providing support, empowerment, and education through quality, up-to-date care. I service Delaware County, and parts of Philadelphia and Montgomery counties. Please call or email me with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your baby!
