About me

Liz Flight has helped mothers and babies with breastfeeding for over 40 years. She has developed lactation programs, provided training for numerous military hospitals and has provided guidance for policy makers concerning support of the military mother returning to active duty. Liz continues to provide professional education for nursing students, lactation interns, military residency programs, and is an often sought guest speaker. Liz developed, managed and completed a program to successfully bring BFHI designation to a community hospital. Currently, Liz maintains a private practice and (with a team of software engineers) is developing Electronic Charting software for Lactation "MilkNotes, LLC." She has been board certified as an IBCLC since 1993 and completed her Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing, summa cum laude at Hampton University, May 2011. Liz achieved the Advanced Nurse Lactation Consultant certification through the Healthy Children Project in 2012. At Tidewater Lactation Group we aim to provide knowledgeable, compassionate, and respectful support to all parents who choose to breastfeed their babies. We believe that every parent deserves the guidance and education they need to be empowered to nourish their child.
