Hey there radiant moms and families! 🥰 I’m Jennifer, a passionate Maternal-Child Health advocate with over two decades as a Registered Nurse and Community Health Educator. My journey began in New Orleans where I graduated from LSU Health Sciences Center’s School of Nursing. My love for Maternal-Child Health truly blossomed after witnessing a Midwife-assisted delivery while in nursing school. From an RN at The Birthing Place at Tulane University Hospital and Clinic, to volunteering post-Hurricane Katrina, and moving to Houston pregnant with my twins, my passion for supporting moms intensified during my tenure at The Woman’s Hospital of Texas. I soon realized teaching was my calling. 🍎 As a Certified Childbirth Educator, teaching an array of topics from Infant CPR to Marvelous Multiples, I specialize in empowering parents. And my own NICU journey with my preterm twins fueled my commitment to lactation support. In 2014, I became a Certified Lactation Counselor, and soon after, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. Contributing to The Woman’s Hospital of Texas becoming the first Baby-Friendly Hospital in Houston is a badge of honor for me. My heart is with the fierce moms and their tiny NICU warriors. With my professional and personal expertise, I was pleased to bring my passion to my community by leading the opening of Memorial Hermann Pearland Hospital’s Lactation and Perinatal Education Departments. Come 2022, I joined the fantastic Bayou City Breastfeeding crew! Now, from our Webster and West NASA Offices to your cozy homes, I'm here for you. 🏡 Outside of work, I cherish time in Pearland with my husband and four children, engage in my church’s Women’s Ministry, and daydream about sandy beaches. Ready to embark on this journey together? Let’s make your breastfeeding experience memorable! 💜 Remember, together, we've got this! 🤱🏻🌸

I’m Stephanie, a certified neonatal occupational therapist and internationally board-certified lactation consultant. I’m also a wife to my husband of eight years (we’ve been together since 2009!) and a first-time mom to our curious and very energetic 2½-year-old son. Since 2018, I’ve been honored to work with babies and their families in the NICU, supporting early development and nurturing the parent-infant bond. My passion for lactation support began with my own experience as a new mom. My son was born with a tongue and lip tie along with body tension that made the start of our breastfeeding journey incredibly challenging. After his release procedure, I leaned into my training in infant bodywork and massage to support his healing — and through that experience, I realized just how critical it is to prepare the body before a release, not just after. That insight sparked a deeper commitment in me to learn more, and now I’m here to help other families navigate similar challenges with knowledge, confidence, and compassion. Whether you're preparing for a release, recovering from one, or just trying to make feeding feel more connected and less stressful, I’m here to support you and your baby every step of the way.
