Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in Moorhead, MN

Hello! I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant & Registered Nurse. I have been working with breastfeeding families since 2015.

My name is Jaci McCaskell Kulish and I am an IBCLC with extra training in oral dysfunction and ties, and low milk supply management. It is my belief that everyone who wants breastfeeding support deserves breastfeeding support and everyone should have the opportunity to reach their breastfeeding goals. In my spare time I can be found at the lake, reading, jigsaw puzzling, fishing, or hanging out with my family and our two rescue dogs.

As a dedicated lactation consultant, I am committed to supporting and guiding new mothers through their breastfeeding journey. With specialized training and a compassionate approach, I provide personalized care to help you and your baby thrive. Whether you’re facing challenges with latch, milk supply, or simply need reassurance, I’m here to offer expert advice, practical solutions, and emotional support. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to nourish your baby naturally, creating a positive and fulfilling breastfeeding experience for both of you.

I'm Jamie Shelley, a Certified Nurse-Midwife and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant serving families in Alexandria, Minnesota and the surrounding central Minnesota region through Empowered Midwifery and Wellness, LLC. I grew up on a rural Minnesota farm and have been working in maternal-child health since 2006, with experience spanning labor and delivery, community birth, lactation consulting, postpartum care, nursing education, pregnancy resource center work, and breastfeeding support group leadership. I earned my Master's of Science in Nurse-Midwifery from Bethel University in 2024. I offer homebirth packages that include full prenatal and postpartum care, waterbirth, VBAC support, and breastfeeding support — whether you birthed with me or elsewhere and simply need additional lactation guidance along the way. I approach every client's care through a whole-person lens, believing that physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health are all deeply connected. I'm a committed listener, and I look forward to partnering with you on your health journey. Beyond my clinical work, I co-founded The Birth Collective — a community organization dedicated to building connection around pregnancy, birth, and postpartum in central Minnesota. We host quarterly in-person gatherings in Alexandria, maintain an online community where families can ask questions and find support, and work to connect parents with trusted local birth workers, educators, and resources. I believe life is better lived in community, and The Birth Collective was born out of that conviction — because every family deserves a village. I live in Alexandria with my daughter and am honored to serve the community I call home.

I am a passionate International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and Registered Dietitian. I offer in-person and virtual visits for lactation consulting and nutrition. I specialize in working with women before and during pregnancy, and postpartum. I also accept some health insurance! Looking forward to meeting you! To set up a visit with me, text/call 320-349-2107

As a Doula I aim to be kind, supportive, well-informed, and adaptable to the unique needs of each family I support. I am deeply intuitive and highly resourced in all topics related to empowerment, healing, and possess a truly holistic commitment to creating conscious space. I continually strive to further my knowledge with continuous professional development, reflection of my practice with the aim to learn and improve with each family I have the privilege to support. I hope that my love for supporting families is evident in the dedicated way that I work as a Doula.

I strive to offer compassionate, empathetic care for families in their transformative transition to parenthood. As a certified doula and lactation educator, my services aim to empower families to have the pregnancy and birth of their choice and to feel supported every step of the way. As a licensed Parent and Family Educator I can help parents to navigate the many changes that having a new baby entails - for the whole family.
