Lactation Support




Your breastfeeding goals and dreams are worth working through the challenges. Don't wait another minute to get the help you deserve.


My Mission
Every mom deserves the resources, information and emotional support to meet her breastfeeding goals. I’m here to support ALL the mamas, especially the ones medical professionals write off and let slip through the cracks.

 I am a mom, a mentor, a doula and your new breast-(feeding) friend

I Can Help You
I can help you figure out how to protect your milk supply, while making sure baby is getting enough milk.

I can help you figure out the root cause of your concerns, and make a plan to address it.

I can help you determine which adjunctive therapies will be supportive (i.e. chiropractic care, body work, tie release, herbs, essential oils).

I can help you figure out if reflux or allergies are impacting baby's weight gain.

I can help you figure out if your fertility history is impacting your breastfeeding experience.

I can help you advocate for lab tests or medications that may support your goals.

I can help you come out of the stress and emotions and find a path forward that works for you, baby and the whole family.

I struggled with breastfeeding my first baby and it has a STRONG negative impact on my mental health.  I was eventually diagnosed with IGT compounded by PCOS and insulin resistance.  I had an uphill battle with my breastfeeding goals, making a maximum of 2/3 of my baby's needs.  I blazed my own trail digging through lactation books, attending LLL, talking to CLCs and digging through blogs to figure out why all the advice wasn't working.

  • I breastfeed my first until she was 9 months, 
  • My son until he was 3.5 (tandem nursed with),  
  • My second daughter who nursed to 23 months, 
  • Our second son who nursed to 18 months and
  • My youngest is 3 and still nurses on occasion. 
I've provided peer breastfeeding support to dozens of mamas over the years, including several of my birth doula clients.  I've also presented education to birth professionals to recognize the difference between simple breastfeeding habits & hormonal or physiological concerns.
