Hello, my name is Shandrea Herrington, and I am the mother of two wonderful boys, aged 18 and 19. My personal journey and dedication to providing exceptional care and support to families during the precious period of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood have led me to develop a passion for assisting families outside regular office hours. As a highly experienced Medical Assistant with over 10 years in pediatrics, obstetrics, and gynecology, I am deeply passionate about helping families navigate the challenges of welcoming a new life. My extensive background in the medical field has equipped me with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the numerous physical and emotional changes expectant mothers experience throughout their pregnancy. My vast experience working with newborns has also enabled me to deeply understand the needs and demands of both mothers and babies during this critical period. With a strong belief in the power of compassionate care and support, I established Baby Bliss by Shan—a company dedicated to providing expert guidance and assistance to individuals and couples as they navigate the beautiful yet challenging journey of parenthood. I understand that every family is unique, with its own set of desires, fears, and expectations. That's why our services are personalized to meet each client's unique needs. I provide breastfeeding support, newborn care, and postpartum doula care services, ensuring parents receive the best guidance possible.

I have been a newborn nurse for 11 years and a lactation specialist for 5 years. I have 3 children that I breastfed myself, but didn’t learn about all that goes into nursing and the amazing science behind it, or the massive benefits of breastfeeding, until I decided to become a Lactation Consultant in 2020.I love helping moms reach their breastfeeding goals and giving them and their children an outcome that works for both of them.

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.
