About Natasha

My name is Natasha, pronouns she/her, mom, gardener, and life-long learner. My mission is so simple: to provide accessible and non-biased support for all people navigating journeys of lactation and infant feeding. I am a Toronto-based International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Lactation Counselor (CBI), completed the Mohawk College Breastfeeding Program, and I am a DONA trained postpartum doula. My doula training directly informs my feeding support style, allowing me to be present and engaged, never rushed, and always there for you. I have no agenda in support other than to help each client understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is not one right way to do it.

Lactation Consultant services

I support my clients ALL along the milk making journey, from pregnancy and prenatal preparation to weaning, latching difficulties and supply concerns, infant weight trouble, nipple pain, supply management plans, tandem feeding, multiples, premature birth, toddler feeding, solids introduction, loss and involution, pumping, induced lactation to formula feeding
