I’m an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). That’s just a fancy way of saying I know a lot about boobs and breastfeeding 😉 At times, breastfeeding can be really challenging but my goal is to meet and support mommas where they are, providing help and encouragement along the way. My passion is to help save lives, one at a time, through the miraculous gift of mother’s milk.

I’ve been an IBCLC, in private practice since 1987. I’m the mother of 10 breastfed children including a set of twins, and 9 grandchildren. I have encountered pretty much every type of Breastfeeding issue there is in my years of practice. I love what I do. I accept most insurance with the exception of Medicaid as the state will not allow us to do so. Visit my website to learn more.

Hey there, my name is Jasmine Johnston and I’m from Cincinnati, OH. I am a Full Spectrum Doula and Wholistic infant feeding and lactation consultant. I am a proud gardener and crocheter. I also enjoy yoga, herbalism, vegan food, and wholistic health. I’m not new to care taking, I Have 10 Nieces and Nephews and I’ll always say my younger sister was my first baby. However, it was through my first born that I was reborn myself. While pregnant, I gained a passion for birthwork and gardening. I began to understand the importance of getting connected with earth’s essence and supporting each seed towards their fullest potential. In gardening, each seed knows exactly what to do when given the right environment to flourish. I believe in that philosophy for birthing people. I aim to support women in their fully informed power and connection to self through the ancestral ways of breastfeeding, birthing, and wholistic wellness.

I am Rhonesha Isreal, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. I provide lactation services prenatally and postpartum via home visits and virtual appointments. After breastfeeding for 13 months, I recognized the importance of moms and other chest-feeding individuals receiving support throughout their journey. My goal is to support families from the time they are pregnant until they decide to wean their baby (voluntarily or involuntarily). I want moms to feel more confident and secure after working with me. I also want families to know, breastfeeding is not “all or nothing” and being comfortable and confident in their breastfeeding journey will change their daily outlook while they are nursing or expressing milk.

I am a postpartum RN with over 9 years experience, I’m also a certified maternal newborn nurse and an international certified lactation consultant
