About me

Hi! My name is Kelsey. I am a registered nurse with a background in Pediatric Emergency nursing, and Women’s health. I am also a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and CLC seeking to obtain my IBCLC. I am a military spouse and I became a mom in 2022 and have the sweetest son. I am also expecting another baby boy later this year. Like many new moms, I struggled immensely with my breastfeeding journey. I took breastfeeding classes, I learned hand expression, and I tried so so hard to be perfect at it so I’d be ready before my son arrived. Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that breastfeeding is a learned skill and it’s not natural for everyone. After experiencing my own issues and not having lactation support, I decided to go into lactation care so I can help other moms avoid the pitfalls I experienced. I aspire to help every mom reach their own feeding goals (no matter what they are) and feel supported while they navigate parenthood.

Frequently asked questions

Does my insurance cover this?

We are only accepting Tricare insurances at this time. Services are covered for Tricare at 100%. We do charge a travel fee for services rendered outside of Schofield Barracks/Wheeler. Prices are based on round trip mileage. 5-30 miles: $10 30-45 miles: $20 45+ miles: $30

How can I schedule an appointment with you?

You can reach out through my social media accounts, my business phone via text or phone, or my website!

What if I don’t have tricare?

We will have to bill you upfront and provide you with a super bill to submit to insurance. There is no guarantee of reimbursement as we are not a participating provider with any other insurance company at this time. We do, however, offer a sliding scale for self-pay clients and would be happy to discuss that with you! We believe in making lactation care accessible as possible!
