Lactation Counselor

Yet you are he who took me from the womb; you kept me safe upon my mother's breasts. Psalms 22:9

Breastfeeding is a natural grace but it is also a skilled to be learned. As a certified lactation counselor I can assist in learning the art of breastfeeding to ensure a relaxing and confident experience.

Lactation Counselor

You’ve just given birth, breastfeeding has been going well with the support of your healthcare team, but then you get home and reality sinks in.  Suddenly everything you were taught in your euphoric state after delivery, is now a blur. Your beautiful bundle of joy is crying and maybe you are having some anxiety before each nursing. Your nipples may be sore, you are wondering if you even have enough milk, if there are foods you need to avoid, or if you can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner.

No worries! As a certified lactation counselor, I can help with teaching feeding ques, latch, milk supply, breast concerns, debunking old myths, and how to bond with your baby through the simple gift of skin to skin.

Make it possible for me, in imitation of you, O Lady of La Leche, to nurse my child to perfect health. In all things help me to follow the example which you, as the perfect model of all mothers, have given to me.- Prayer of Our Lady of La Leche

Working together in the comfort of your own home, I will help you with breastfeeding and answer all of your questions you may have. The wonderful world of lactation is ever evolving and being armed with the latest evidence-based practices you will have the confidence to give your little one the natural gift of breastfeeding.
