About me

I am a Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience in labor and delivery, postpartum care, and the neonatal intensive care unit located in Chattanooga, TN. The past seven years of my career have been focused on helping mamas feed their little ones as a lactation consultant. Being a mama of two little boys myself, I completely understand how rewarding and challenging motherhood can be! Bringing a new baby home can be overwhelming, but feeding your little one shouldn’t be. I started Mama & Milk to equip parents with the knowledge and support they need to confidently care for their babies. You deserve to enjoy this stage while it lasts, because from a mama to a mama, it’ll be over before you know it. One day soon, those quiet cuddles in your nursery will turn into a toddler screaming “I want a snack!”. Whether it's your first baby or your last, I'm here to support you at any stage of your breastfeeding journey.

Service introduction

I’m an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Registered Nurse with over 12 years of experience supporting moms and babies. I provide in-home lactation consultations and breastfeeding support for families in Chattanooga, Hixson, Soddy Daisy, Red Bank, Signal Mountain, and surrounding areas. My services include prenatal lactation education, postpartum breastfeeding support, back-to-work pumping and feeding planning, breast pump and flange fitting, and more. Whether you’re navigating low milk supply, latch difficulties, nipple pain, pumping challenges, or just need reassurance that your baby is feeding well, I’m here to help. Many families qualify for insurance-covered home visits. Let’s make feeding your baby feel easier and more supported.

Packages
Postpartum/Newborn-Self Pay Rate
We’ll review your medical history and do a clinical assessment of both mom and baby. I’ll evaluate the feeding, providing hands-on support with positioning and latch as needed. Using a highly sensitive medical-grade scale, I’ll do pre-and post-feeding weights to ensure your baby is transferring milk well and growing appropriately. I’ll answer all feeding questions and provide a custom feeding plan that’s tailored to your goals. Flange fittings are provided at no additional cost. Follow-up support via a HIPAA-compliant messaging service is included for 1 week.

Prenatal Education- Self Pay Rate
Sit down one-on-one with an IBCLC to talk about what to expect before the big day! We will talk through your medical history to determine any risk factors that could impact your breastfeeding journey and discuss your birth plan. I will go over the basics of breastfeeding including position/latch, what to expect in the first few weeks, how to know if your baby is getting enough milk and most importantly… when to reach out for help! If you need assistance obtaining a breast pump through insurance, I can guide you through the process and help you evaluate your options. I’ll answer all your questions and make sure you have everything you need to prepare for your little one’s arrival. My self-pay clients are eligible for a discounted rate for a postpartum visit once your baby arrives.

Breast Pump & Flange Support- Self Pay Rate
We’ll start by measuring your nipple size to narrow down which flange sizes to try. We carry plastic flanges in sizes 10–36 mm and in three different shapes-crater, pano, and classic-as well as silicone inserts. I’ll observe a pumping session and try several different flanges to ensure proper fit and that your pump is operating well. I'll show you how to use your pump, clean it properly, and store your breastmilk. We will talk about ways to maintain your supply and how to maximize milk output while pumping. Together we will develop a personalized pumping plan to set you up for success. This option is ideal for NICU moms, exclusive pumpers, and those returning to work.
