Monica Bykov - Lactation Consultant

About Monica

I'm a Registered Nurse, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, and Cache Certified Newborn Care Specialist with emphasis on education of maternal newborn care and sleep conditioning babies under 2 years of age. I bring not only medical and newborn care experience of 25+ years, but also perspective and understanding of what it’s like to be a teenage mom; what it takes to be a surrogate; and certainly what a huge physical, emotional, and life changing journey that giving life, grieving loss, and parenting comes with.
