In my dual roles as newborn nurse practitioner and Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant, I find it extremely rewarding to provide new parents with the information, skills, and support they need to navigate the biggest role change in their lives with confidence.

They also appreciate that I am available as a resource and support for breast feeding through baby’s first year and beyond.

A note from a parent
Thank you for the support, encouragement, and knowledge you gave us during our baby’s first month of life. We are so thrilled that he is successfully breastfeeding. I’ve grown to view breastfeeding as a wonderful continuation of all the good parts of pregnancy. I love having our baby close to me knowing that I am nourishing him. It’s all so amazing! We couldn’t have done it without you.” —AnonymousPersonal
