Lactation Consultants & IBCLCs Near Me in St. Petersburg, FL

My name is Keneda Lynch, MSN, BSW, RN, IBCLC, and I am the Lead Lactation Consultant at a local hospital and owner of Latch of Love Lactation Services. With years of experience supporting mothers and babies in both the hospital and home settings, my approach centers on nourishing the relationship between parent and child through evidence-based care, compassion, and realistic guidance. I believe every family deserves support that feels safe, judgment-free, and tailored to their unique feeding journey—whether that includes exclusive breastfeeding, combination feeding, pumping, or navigating early challenges. My philosophy is simple: empower parents with knowledge, meet them where they are, and walk alongside them with empathy and encouragement so they can feel confident, connected, and supported in the fourth trimester and beyond.

Stephanie is a board-certified lactation consultant (IBCLC), which is the gold standard for lactation and infant feeding support. She is currently practicing in and around Lakeland, FL through her private practice GROW Lakeland, LLC. She first started working with families in 2017 as a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and postpartum doula, and quickly realized that supporting families was her professional calling. The road to IBCLC is long and challenging, but she aced the board exam in 2022 and launched GROW in 2023. Shortly after passing her board exam, she jumped straight into advanced training programs for oral function & ties, bottle refusal, and Infant Reflexes to better support local families dealing with the most difficult feeding challenges.
