About me

At Lactating Essentials, I provide services to help parents with all their breastfeeding and postpartum needs. Breastfeeding is natural, but not always easy. I hope to make this new chapter in your life as easy and stress free as possible. I am an IBCLC, International board-certified lactation consultant. I am very passionate about helping others reach their breastfeeding goals because of the struggles I have faced with my own children. I have two little girls, and ever since I had my first, I became very interested in protecting their health the best I can. I love discussing the benefits of breastfeeding for babies and parents so feel free to ask me anything. I would love to help you with your journey.
