About Shannon

Welcome to Goddess Lactation! I'm here to provide you with the compassionate and experienced care you need. With over 20 years as a highly-skilled Registered Nurse, I understand the support and guidance you deserve and will ensure you have it every step of the way. ​ As a wife and mother of a eight-year-old daughter, I developed a passion for breastfeeding and lactation consulting during my own postpartum journey. I faced many challenges and received mixed advice from healthcare professionals during this period, which led me to realize the importance of having access to knowledgeable and supportive resources. This realization fueled my dedication to infant nutrition and helping new families thrive. ​ I provide education, feeding plans, and other assistance to breastfeeding mothers, and I am a strong advocate for the benefits of infant nutrition, both physically and emotionally.
