About me

Hey! My name is Erika. I live in beautiful Eastern Washington with my husband and 2 children. After a difficult experience breastfeeding my first child, I decided to embark on the long process to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. I currently work with feeding challenges both in hospital with newborns, in an outpatient clinic helping babies up to 3 weeks and also do in home or virtual visits for the entirety of your breastfeeding journey. I have taken courses to be certified in oral tethers (tongue/lip ties), difficult latch, bottle refusal, and infant weight issues. I am here to help encourage and support you during the transition to breastfeeding your new baby. We contract with The Lactation Network for most insurances.
