Hi! I am Kristin Frohne, a certified birth doula and certified VBAC doula and lactation consultant. I am a wife and a mom to 3 little kids.

I am a Certified Physician Assistant practicing in Women’s Health, Certified Lactation Counselor, and mother of two! It is my goal to reach expectant and current mamas who want to breastfeed with knowledge and confidence. Moreover, it is my goal to provide resources to accomplish this in an accessible and affordable way. Getting the breastfeeding education you want and need should not be only for those privileged enough to have a Lactation Consultant at their pediatrician office or the money to pay for a private consult. That’s why I offer a lot of free breastfeeding information on my Instagram page @MadeToMotherLactation, and this is why my e-book “Breastfeeding Foundations” is an instant download on my website (or available on Kindle), and was priced with affordability in mind. I sincerely hope Made to Mother Lactation is a source of encouragement, knowledge, and support for you. What a privilege it is to be trusted by you to walk alongside you in this beautiful stage of motherhood!
