Lactation  Consultations

Your Judgment-Free Lactation Consultant 
Why choose an IBCLC?
International board lactation consultants (IBCLC) have the most education and skill on breastfeeding and lactation support. The IBCLC is a healthcare professional with a multidisciplinary role that straddles generalized support for breastfeeding, and allied health care. As a professional , IBCLCs are guided in practice by a set of standards, a code of ethics, and a defined scope of practice. Having an IBCLC on your support team will give you confidence that you have someone knowledgeable and capable of handling any issues should they arise.
​--- ILCA
What is my goal?
My goal is to provide parents with evidence based, guilt free, judgment free lactation assistance aimed to respectfully help parents meet their breastfeeding goals.
