Personalized Lactation Support
In the comfort of your home.
Breastfeeding can be hard, confusing and exhausting.
But it doesn’t have to be.
With support and evidence based guidance, Mothers will find breastfeeding to be a beautiful outlet for bonding with their new baby and offer vast physical, financial, nutritional and life long health benefits for all. I would be delighted to help you! Lactation is my passion; something I fell into once I had my oldest daughter in 2009. After experiencing nursing struggles firsthand, I became passionate about helping new Moms and babies overcome breastfeeding hurdles. I am a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) from The Academy of Lactation Policy & Practice, Certified Newborn Care Specialist, Certified Postpartum Doula, a former WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselor, former La Leche League Leader and am College educated in Child Development with a minor in Pediatric Nutrition.
For the past 15 years I have had the joy of helping hundreds of Mothers all over the world nurse their babies with ease.
For Families in the Nocatee/Ponte Vedra Beach, Jacksonville, St Johns, St Augustine areas; I offer private consultations to assist in overcoming various initial Breastfeeding concerns. I come to you, on your schedule: because getting a new baby (and new Mama!) out of the house is hard enough! Together we will orchestrate a plan that meets your individual lactation goals.
I also offer “bed side support” for families seeking lactation support in the hospital shortly after delivery.
