I truly love what I do, and one of the most meaningful parts of my work is supporting families through breastfeeding challenges. Every baby and every parent are different, and there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach. That’s what draws me in—the opportunity to listen, problem-solve, and walk alongside you through what can sometimes feel like a confusing or overwhelming time.

Helping families find comfort, confidence, and success with breastfeeding—even in the tough moments—is incredibly rewarding. I believe in meeting each parent where they are, honoring their goals, and offering compassionate, evidence-based guidance every step of the way.

It’s not just about feeding a baby—it’s about nurturing a bond, supporting healing, and empowering you to feel strong and informed in your parenting journey. That’s why I do this work, and why it means so much to me.
