Breastfeeding is nature's way of providing optimal nutrition to your baby, offering a myriad of species-specific benefits. It's the biological norm that not only nourishes but also shields your baby with numerous health advantages, reducing the risk of various illnesses. However, I understand that mastering breastfeeding can be quite challenging for new moms.
My primary goal is to listen to your needs and address your concerns, guiding you through the essential steps to achieve your infant feeding goals. Whether it's assistance with latching strategies, pumping, formula supplementation, or bottle feeding, I'm here to tailor a plan that suits your unique family dynamics.
Every family is distinct, and together, we'll uncover the ideal feeding plan that works best for you and your baby.
I'm a mom too! I've had many challenges and know how difficult it can be to provide breastmilk to your baby without adequate support.
I've helped and provided lactation support to a myriad of mothers and families with breastfeeding difficulties and have witnessed how many mothers second guess their abilities.
My mission is to empower you to trust your instincts and believe in yourself. I would be honored to be part of your breastfeeding journey. Let's do this together!
