Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in Columbia, SC

Hi, I'm Suzanne Nicklas! I'm a Registered Nurse, IBCLC, Doula and Health Coach based in Greenville, SC. As a nurse, my passion has been working with new parents and infants. I have worked with hundreds of families in my fifteen years as a lactation consultant and doula. I love educating families prior to the birth of their baby and particularly enjoy the postpartum period. As the mother of four, my own birth experiences led me to this work. I offer 24/7 on call Lactation "office hours" to assist families at any time of day or night. My passion for wellness started many years ago when I took the first of many health coach trainings, the first being through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I began health coaching in 2010 and since then my practice has transformed and grown in many ways. As I have grown as a person, so has my work. Along the way I have picked up skills based on my own personal interests and broadened my education and am able to share those with both my lactation and doula clients as well as my coaching clients. Some of these training include yoga, aromatherapy and reiki. It is my love of combining conventional and alternative philosophies of care that led me to Ayurveda and Yoga. My trainings have enabled me to blend the wisdom of Eastern medicine into our Western way of living to create lifestyle transformations that work in our busy day to day lives. All of my services are offered both virtually and in person. Lastly but most importantly, as a partner and mother of four amazing humans, I bring both personal experience and professional care to the families I serve. I am honored that you have chosen to visit my site and I look forward to working together.

Marcelle (she/her) is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), an RN since 1999 and founder of Wholesome Lactation Care, PLLC. As a mother of two, Marcelle became inspired by her own breastfeeding journey. Most of her career has been focused on working with children and families in their homes and through community-based programs. In 2012, she oversaw a teen parent program in a Florida high school. She initiated breast/chestfeeding support programs along with childbirth education to prepare teen parents. As a result, parents breastfed their infants at a much higher rate than average. There was a significant reduction in infections among babies which allowed parents to stay in school and complete their education. This led her to become an IBCLC in 2017. She currently works as an IBCLC in her community and brings her expertise to help empower families with feeding issues such as mastitis, difficulty latching, nipple pain, low milk supply, exclusive pumping, engorged breasts, tongue-tie, laryngomalacia, low weight gain, colic and much more. Post Helene, she volunteered with NC SAFE Infant feeding program. She also brings 20 years of herbalism and nutrition knowledge and will customize your visit to your needs. Marcelle takes multiple health insurances and can do home visits, telehealth and office visits.

Hi all mamas, I’m Tara and I’m certain I’m the right doula for you and your growing family. I’m a mother of three beautiful children and I’ve experienced three very different births personally: medicated with epidural, all natural, and an emergency c section. I also breastfed each child for over a year and offer lactation support postpartum. I fully understand the physical, emotional and spiritual challenges of pregnancy, childbirth and early motherhood. I believe a new version of the mother is born along with the babies. I’m here to advocate for you, to support you and your personal goals. The fear of the unknown is lesser when we know someone really has our back and I will be that person for you. I’ve been an unofficial doula and breastfeeding guru for friends and family for years. You will not have to do any of this alone. I’ll hold your hand, your legs lol and your baby.

Hello! My name is Zadah, I’m a mother of 2 from a small town in North Carolina. I’ve worked in healthcare for most of my adult life and I’ve noticed that as women, especially women of color, LGBTQIA+, and those of certain social status tend to be at higher risk of adverse birth experiences. We need advocates and other women to help support our path to better care. Did you know that 1 in 4 women experience symptoms of postpartum depression? They say it takes a village, but what about the women who don’t have a support system? I want to extend a hand and be the change that we as mothers deserve.
