I’m passionate about empowering families to achieve their individual feeding goals and ensuring they feel confident throughout their breastfeeding journey. As a Registered Nurse since 2009 and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) since 2016, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of families to support them during their breastfeeding journey. With experience in labor and delivery, postpartum care, lactation support, and education, I’ve helped guide families through both in-person and virtual classes, as well as support groups. As a mother of three, each with their own unique breastfeeding journey, I deeply understand the challenges and joys of this experience.

Danica did an outstanding job getting to know our family, meeting our needs, and supporting us in the early days after we brought our daughter home. She is extremely professional and punctual, she immediately built trust with us, and supported us with night feeds, bottle cleaning, and even some light house keeping. 10/10 recommend her for anyone looking for a little extra sleep the first few nights home.

I am trained to be non-biased and have no judgment towards any type of birth. I am excited to attend and support any birth experience that may arise. I provide women with emotional, physical and educational support throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum. As a Doula, all I want is to be there for you. Let’s get started.

Recent review

I am beyond grateful for Hannah’s support during the birth of my baby. Her presence is calm, loving and graceful. She is a beacon of comfort and strength. Her grace and attentiveness never wavers during the birthing process. She provides invaluable support and reassurance, handling every request with remarkable poise, giving so much reassurance to you as a birthing mother going through something incredibly vulnerable. Hannah’s deep knowledge and thoughtful suggestions guided me through each step, and her ability to stay as long as needed was truly reassuring. She helped me navigate through hard emotional decisions regarding the birth in the months leading up to it, and through all of that her nurturing spirit made a challenging experience more manageable and so beautiful. I can’t thank her enough for being such an incredible doula and for making me feel so cared for during this journey.

Hello! I'm Lauren Wist the founder of Lactation with Lauren. I am a RN since 2009 at a large birthing hospital in Maryland and an IBCLC for the last 8 years and counting. I work in-patient in the hospital as a lactation consultant and am starting to provide care in families' homes to provide continued support. I love that each family I work with has their own story and their own journey. There are hard days and there are thriving days - I am honored to be part of each situation as we find the next right thing and reach personalized goals. When I am not using my IBCLC skills I love to spend time with my husband, 3 school aged kids, and young standard poodle. We enjoy visiting extended family members spread out along the East Coast, hiking in Patapsco State Park and traveling by airplane to new places when we have extra time together.

Lauren is amazing lactation consultant. She is patient , informative, and always helps you feel like you’re on the right track. Her suggestions are clear and encouraging. She brings a positive energy to the sometimes draining experience that is breastfeeding and infanthood. Never rushed, Lauren ensures that both mom and baby feel cared for. She is careful to include partners as well so they feel as involved as they would like to be. I highly recommend Lauren to all mothers!

I am honored to share this space with you as a doula, supporting women through hormonal health, fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. My passion for menstrual health began over a decade ago during my senior year of nursing school. I pushed my body to its limits with early mornings, long days, and too much coffee, until symptoms like deep cystic acne and debilitating cramps forced me to listen. I sought out a practitioner who helped me understand my body and its messages, empowering me to heal myself. I went on to study plant medicine, the nervous system, and energy work, earning a master’s in clinical herbalism. In 2021, I moved to a cottage, creating medicinal gardens and deepening my connection with the natural world. The garden taught me how the body mirrors the larger cycles of life, and I now work intuitively with plants, creating teas for the women I support. That same year, I started a relationship that further refined my understanding of emotions and cyclical health. Today, I’m passionate about helping women reconnect with their body’s wisdom to heal themselves, the land, and their relationships. All my love, Kellie

"Working with Kellie has been life-changing. She holds space with such warmth, wisdom, and care. I felt deeply seen and supported as I learned how to reconnect with myself in ways I never imagined. Her ability to guide with both deep knowledge and gentle presence is something truly special. With the tools she gently gave me, I feel confident in taking this next step on my journey ."

Hi, my name is Nina Myers and I am a birth and postpartum doula. My goal is for you to have a positive birth experience, no matter the outcome. Twenty years ago, I worked in Labor and Delivery as a nursing assistant and fell in love with births. I was also a nanny to twins and absolutely love the baby stage. Becoming a birth and postpartum doula was the perfect combination for me. In my free time, you can find me working one of my other businesses (photographer and farmer), scrapbooking with friends, or chilling out in my recliner binge watching crime or medical shows.
