Service introduction
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Becoming a parent is one of the most beautiful—and sometimes most overwhelming—journeys you’ll ever take. My goal is to walk alongside you with over 15 years of experience through every step with gentle guidance, evidence-based support, and genuine care for your growing family. As a Lactation and Newborn Care Specialist and Childbirth Educator, I offer a holistic approach to early parenthood that helps families feel confident, calm, and connected. Whether you’re preparing for birth, learning the art of feeding, or navigating those first tender months at home, I provide personalized support that meets you where you are—judgment-free and heart-forward. 💛 Lactation Support: Compassionate, customized help for all feeding journeys—breast/chest, bottle, pumping, or combination. Together, we’ll find what works best for you and your baby. 🤍 Childbirth Education: Practical, empowering classes designed to prepare you and your partner for labor, birth, and the early postpartum period. Knowledge is power—and comfort. 🌿 Newborn Care & First-Year Guidance: From soothing techniques and sleep shaping to developmental milestones, I offer ongoing care and education so you can enjoy more confidence (and rest!) in your baby’s first year. Whether through in-person visits or telehealth sessions, my mission is simple: to nurture families with warmth, respect, and reliable support during one of life’s most meaningful transitions. Let’s make this journey a little easier—and a lot more joyful—together.

What to Expect During Your IBCLC Visit
Welcoming a new baby can bring moments of joy, wonder, and sometimes, uncertainty—especially when it comes to feeding. My goal as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that helps you and your baby thrive.
Each visit is personalized to your family’s needs and offers hands-on guidance, reassurance, and ongoing support as you navigate your feeding journey.
🌸 During Your Visit
We’ll begin with a warm conversation about your experience so far—your birth story, your goals, and any challenges you’re facing, such as latching, milk supply, or pumping concerns. I’ll also review your baby’s feeding patterns, weight, and overall well-being.
Together, we’ll observe a full feeding to gently assess latch, positioning, and milk transfer. I’ll guide you through small adjustments and techniques to make feeding more comfortable and effective for both you and your baby.
🍼 Personalized Care Plan
After our session, you’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-follow care plan tailored to your needs. This may include:
• Step-by-step guidance for improving latch and positioning
• Milk supply and pumping recommendations
• Nipple and breast care tips
• Suggestions for feeding routines or bottle introduction
• Trusted resources and referrals, if needed
💌 Follow-Up Support
You won’t be on your own aft. I provide follow-up support via text or email to answer questions and celebrate your progress. Additional visits are available if you’d like continued guidance as your baby grows.
