Hi, my name is Ariel and I am excited to help you on the path to motherhood! My journey from holding a PhD in neuroscience to embracing the tender moments of motherhood in Paris is a testament to the twists and turns life can offer. Amidst the allure of Parisian streets, I found more than just a cultural revelation; I discovered a profound passion for the world of breastfeeding, which to me was a delicate blend of science, art, and heart. By 2010, I had settled in Katy, where I dedicated myself to creating a nurturing circle of support for mothers. This newfound mission in my life led me to achieve my IBCLC certification. Pairing my rigorous scientific background with the warmth and insights of motherhood, I crafted a unique approach that has since helped many families navigate and overcome their breastfeeding challenges. The end of 2020 marked another milestone as I became a proud member of the Bayou City Breastfeeding team here in Houston. Having personally journeyed through the myriad of emotions and challenges while breastfeeding my three daughters, I bring both professional expertise and deep empathy to the table. To every mother reading this, know that I stand with you. With a foundation in neuroscience and a heart full of compassion, I am dedicated to supporting and guiding you on this beautiful, complex journey of motherhood. Let's cherish each moment and face every challenge together. ❤️

I offer comprehensive prenatal and postpartum services to support breastfeeding success. Expecting parents can benefit from breastfeeding education through group classes, private consultations, or virtual sessions. Postpartum services include in-patient, home, and office visits, with specialized care for issues like tongue-tie, bottle feeding challenges, and breastfeeding difficulties. Additionally, I provide guidance on breastfeeding nutrition, infant reflux, and allergy management. My services extend to breast pump consultations, bodywork, photobiomodulation therapy, and weaning support. Virtual consultations are available via a HIPAA-compliant platform, and I offer ongoing care through classes, support groups, and sleep consultations for new parents.
