Who am I to teach you about breastfeeding?
Officially— I am a Registered Nurse, Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant and mom of 3. I’ve been where you are and I’ve gotten myself and hundreds of other moms where they want to go.
Sincerely— I struggled with nursing my first son. As a nurse I thought I knew it all and I didn’t prepare. Thankfully, I was able to overcome our struggles and went all-in on understanding the ins-and-outs of lactation. Now, I want to teach you how to get started the way that I wish I had!
