About me

My name is Alice Norris. I am a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a Registered Nurse (RN) specializing in Postpartum, and Maternal Child Health. I hold a bachelor's of science degree in nursing from the University of Vermont. I have cared for mothers and babies for more than 25 years. My experience includes hospital and community health settings providing pediatric and postpartum nursing care. Blooming Babies is my private practice which allows me to provide expert lactation support through home visits, in-office appointments and telehealth. Along with personalized support I offer online breastfeeding classes and breast pumps covered by BCBSVT. My mission is to help families meet their breastfeeding goals by providing calm and knowledgable guidance throughout the breastfeeding journey.
