About me

I have been teaching Childbirth Education and Breastfeeding for the past 11 years. I am a Mom of 6, a Nana to 3, a Registered Nurse and an IBCLC. I work at a large hospital healthcare system, Advocate Aurora Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, IL. Though our hospital classes are still virtual, I do also teach private classes in your home or other venue of your choice. (I am fully vaccinated and boosted). I also have been volunteer teaching at a local Pregnancy Center for the past 5 years. I love to teach and would love to work with you.!
