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!
