About me

I'm a board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) committed to helping parents achieve their breastfeeding and chestfeeding goals with nurturing, nonjudgemental clinical care. Lactation consults are available in your home, through telehealth or in my cozy home office in Bellingham’s Fairhaven neighborhood. Whether you are pregnant or planning to induce lactation, are dealing with challenges, want to exclusively pump, or need help with back to work/school issues, I would love to be your lactation consultant!
