About me

My approach to lactation support is centered on the unique needs and mental health of each family, particularly during the crucial newborn phase. I collaborate closely with families to develop personalized plans that suit their specific circumstances. Whether through telehealth or in-person visits in and around Maplewood, I provide expert guidance on essential aspects of breastfeeding, including flange sizing and weighted feeds. Additionally, I offer prenatal breastfeeding consultations to help families prepare for what they will encounter in the hospital, ensuring they feel confident and informed from the very start.

Service introduction

Drawing on my extensive clinical hospital experience, I’ve developed a specialized telehealth prenatal consultation to help you prepare for your hospital experience and the early days with your baby. Many parents are caught off guard by various conditions and hospital interventions that can disrupt breastfeeding or chestfeeding, so proactive guidance is crucial. I encourage you to take advantage of this unique service; I’m confident you’ll find it incredibly valuable.
