Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in Culver City, CA

Hello! My name is Angie Bimat, and I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with a long-standing passion for supporting babies and families. My background in oral ties and function, combined with advanced training in Craniosacral Therapy (CST), Craniosacral-fascial Therapy (CFT), and Integrative and Functional Nutrition, allows me to look beyond breastfeeding alone and consider the whole baby and the whole family. I truly believe that feeding should feel like a supported and connected experience, and I love helping families navigate the challenges that can sometimes make that journey difficult. My goal is to meet each family where they are, listen to their concerns, and provide compassionate, individualized support that helps them feel more confident and comfortable. Whether you are preparing to breastfeed, working through feeding challenges, or simply looking for reassurance and guidance, I am here to support you and your baby every step of the way.

My Story I am New York native, living in Los Angeles now for the last 15 years. I am a proud mom to my 6 six boys (age 5 to 21) so for a long time I was either pregnant or breastfeeding. Each baby breastfed for a different duration of time depending on what was going on in my life then and I enjoyed every minute of it. As my boys grew older I was on the search for a new career so I started searching. After exploring various career options, and helping some new mom friends along the way I set my eyes on becoming a Lactation Consultant. This profession combines my passions for babies, breastfeeding and helping others. I so enjoyed my breastfeeding experiences with my babies and wished the same for all moms. So, in my 30's and mom of 5 at the time, I returned to school. After completing my prerequisites, I joined the LC program at UCSD and finally became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2019. ​
