Hey there! I’m Karly, here to help you navigate the wild world of the best job in the world, being a parent! With over 10 years of experience and a passion for helping others. Whether you’re a first-time parent or adding another baby to the family, I’m here to provide the guidance and encouragement you need. When I’m not busy supporting other families as a doula, I am a mom of two amazing kiddos and a wife. Or you may see me assisting in bringing new life into the world as a Labor and Delivery RN. I recently started my journey as a pregnancy, birth, and postpartum Doula. I am also a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). After my own struggles with breastfeeding my daughter, I set out to become more educated and trained to help my patients, friends, and family with breastfeeding. I am passionate about getting parents thru the early days with a minimal amount of tears (sorry, there will always be some). If you need tips on latching, positioning, bottle feeding, figuring out pumping schedules, managing clogged ducts or mastitis or just need a support experienced mama in your corner, I’m your gal!

Karly was an amazing doula and lactation consultant for my wife. She went above and beyond and was crucial in helping my wife feel more confident in breastfeeding before leaving the hospital. She was also a very kind and calming presence during labor. We can't thank her enough.

Our daughter was going through a difficult period feeding and my wife had been so stressed before talking to Karly, she was contemplating giving up. She seems like a different person just having a plan that she could work through. Even that day was already a huge improvement and we’ve continued to make strides over the next week. Anyway, just wanted to express our thanks! 🙏

I met Karly in the hospital after giving birth to my son. He was dropping weight too quickly and we were struggling with breast feeding. Karly worked with us in the hospital, and continued to guide us with home appointments and phone calls afterwards. She made sure we found a routine that fit our specific needs, and my son is thriving!

Karly is a huge asset to our community. Not only does she offer a plethora of knowledge to expecting and postpartum mamas, but she tops the charts with breastfeeding help. I was lucky enough to have her as my nurse in our birth center when having my son, so when I heard she started her lactation consulting business I knew exactly who I wanted to help me with my second breastfeeding journey. Karly is kind, thorough and has handled my anxiety surrounding nursing with such care. I can’t recommend her enough!
