Hi! My name is Jessi Kinsman, and I am a registered nurse and certified lactation counselor! I live in Colorado Springs but do home visits with my clients so you never need to leave the comfort of your own home! My motto is to do what keeps you sane, and that includes helping you reach YOUR goals, whether that’s with breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pumping, or a mix of all of the above! I am here to come alongside and support you on this beautiful and sometimes overwhelming journey. I have a background in nursing and decided to pursue lactation education and certification to add to my RN license to better prepare me to help you! I have a huge heart for women and families in this season of life, and my desire is to make it a time you can truly cherish. When I’m not helping mamas and their babies find their groove, I keep busy homeschooling and spending time outside with our 3 kids, and balancing all that time in nature with some family video games and movie nights. ;)

Hello everyone, my name is Lauren Pilger. I am a lactation consultant (IBCLC) with a special focus in perinatal mental health. I'm also a certified infant massage instructor and a holistic sleep coach. I live in Colorado Springs, CO. I am very passionate in helping families reach their infant feeding goals, whatever they may be. I am especially drawn toward bonding and attachment and how to facilitate that for both parents. In my free time, I enjoy going on hikes with husband and 2 boys, age 11 & 13, as well as our mini aussie, Maggie. I also love singing, sewing, and writing letters.

Love Lactation,LLC Meet your Lactation Consultant Heather Cordova IBCLC I have been a lactation consultant for more than 13 years and have worked with families for over 30 years. I strongly believe that everyone should have access to professional care, and I am passionate about providing that support to families. Feeding your baby is a deeply personal experience, and I am dedicated to helping you reach your feeding goals. My approach is personalized to fit each individual’s unique path and special journey. Since earning my Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition, I spent 29 years with the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program, offering both nutrition education and lactation support. In 2011, I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and I have been in private practice for over 12 years. I am married, with two children, both of whom I breastfed for a full year. My daughter, now an adult, has significant special needs. When I was breastfeeding her, I needed extra care and professional support to reach my goals. Without that guidance, I’m not sure I would have been able to continue providing her with human milk. This experience drives my passion to ensure others have access to the same level of care and support.

My passion is babies and their families during the transition period into the 4th Trimester. I enjoy getting to know each family to provide services that fit their individual needs.

My name is Courtney Moore Rodriguez. I am a certified lactation educator (CLE), certified postpartum doula (CPD), and certified infant and family sleep specialist (IFSS). I am here to support your family in person (within the Denver metro area) and/or virtually…from the time you find out you’re expecting, through your baby’s first birthday. In those first few weeks and months, it can be hard to ask for help. I am a strong believer in helping families to help themselves (with a good amount of time for rest and self care thrown in too). Rather than taking care of your baby for you, I make sure that you have the skills, knowledge, and rest to do it on your own. I assist families in a non-judgmental fashion and always strive to meet you where you are. I am up to date on the latest research regarding infant feeding, sleep, and newborn care, and can give you non-biased information so that you can make informed choices that work for your family.

I have been a nurse for 8yrs. I have worked as a postpartum nurse and am now a full time lactation consultant. I have been doing home visits for 1.5yrs now. I take insurance through TLN and also take self pay. I am a Mama of 2 going to 3 boys!

Hi, I’m Beth the Birthworker. I’m a mama, Doula, Entrepreneur and a major advocate for AUTHENTICITY! I am a highly intuitive, empathetic and compassionate Guide whose passion is to assist birthing people. I am an experienced Birth and Postpartum Doula and a Photographer, Counselor and Coach. But even more importantly, I am also a Sacred Mother and a gifted healer. I love helping people become the most aligned version of themselves by being a Safe Space. In my free time, you will find me spending quality time with my husband and children playing silly games, going on adventures and having deep philosophical conversations about life. I love to solve problems and use my creativity to make people's lives better. For 15 years, I had a career in the non-profit space working with adults with special needs. I have also been a professional nanny, caregiver for the elderly, hospice provider, volunteer with homeless shelters and a preschool teacher. My passion for being of service to others shines through in everything I do. As a Doula, my intention is to tailor my support to your individual needs so that you can show up as the best version of yourself. If you need someone to be very hands on, I will do that! If you prefer someone to quietly hold space and offer words of encouragement, I’ve got you. If you need someone to guide your birth partner so they can better support you, I will help them. Or, if you need someone to task your mother-in-law with missions so you can have a break, I’m on it😉. This is YOUR birth and you are in control. However, if the moment gets scary or frustrating or you feel like you’ve reached your limit, I will step in to offer guidance and support. Communication is key to any successful relationship. If we choose to work together, I will insist on spending time together to come up with your “DREAM” birth plan, as well as contingencies that work for everyone involved. That way, when we show up for your baby’s arrival, we will all be on the same page! I encourage you to interview multiple Doulas and use your intuition to guide you in your choice! No hard feelings and also, I hope we are a great fit! 💜Beth the Birthworker

I have been working with breastfeeding moms and families since 2015 and have been an IBCLC since 2023. My passion lies with helping new moms find a way to make breastfeeding work by offering compassionate, holistic solutions to breastfeeding issues. I have special training in tongue ties and oral restrictions, low milk supply, clogged ducts, bottle refusal, and pumping. I love working with moms in every stage of breastfeeding from pregnancy through weaning and helping you meet your goals.

I have been a registered nurse specializing in perinatal care since 1990. In 2015, I became an IBCLC and began working full-time as an inpatient lactation consultant. In 2019, I expanded my skills by studying craniosacral therapy under Carol Gray. Over time, I integrated craniosacral therapy and lactation consulting at the Recovery Lounge while interning with Amanda Glenn, gradually preparing for retirement from my hospital position. In May 2024, I retired and shifted my focus to the Recovery Lounge and Spa, where I now combine lactation consulting with infant craniosacral therapy, as the two practices complement each other to foster a more joyful breastfeeding experience.

Hi! I'm Brittani Edds: Registered nurse and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and owner of The Milk Academy. Look, breast or chestfeeding can be HARD.

Hi! My name is Meredith, and I am a Lactation Consultant. I have an 8 year old son and 6 year old daughter- and loving this stage of childhood they are in! My husband and I are originally from the Austin area in Texas, but have been here in Colorado for over 14 years now and love anything outdoorsy, dogs, family time and I love reading most genres of books. I have been a nurse for over ten years, serving many different patient populations. One of my favorite areas of nursing was as a mom baby nurse- which I did for 2.5 years- and found a passion for helping with breastfeeding and giving support to all different kinds of feeding plans. I have been an IBCLC for 3 years, and it’s been my favorite nursing career to date! My philosophy is to always support the families’ needs and wants- which I believe can look many ways to help babies thrive and grow, while also protecting the mental and physical health of the mom. I have worked with families who are triple feeding, combination feeding, have a baby or babies in the NICU, exclusively pumping, struggling with an oral tie, using a nipple shield, low supply, oversupply, using a supplemental nursing system, premature birth, wanting to wean, nursing a toddler and more. I love educating and supporting families before and after having a new baby- and every season can bring new challenges. I feel honored when I get to work with a family during this season of life because it’s such a vulnerable and special time to get to be a part of- and I personally know how important good support is during this time.

I found my love and passion for supporting families and children in 2002 when I began my career as a Nanny.  I would frequently found myself supporting newborns/infants as a Nanny and chose to transition to a Newborn Care Specialist officially in 2021.  As of 2023, I have supported over 30 families with their childcare and newborn development. In order to bolster my experience and skills, I sought educational opportunities that specialized in newborn/infant care.  I have completed course offerings from Newborn Care Solutions in both Foundational and Advanced levels and am an Elite, CACHE certified NCS; along with being a trained doula and working on my certification for lactation counselor, I continue learning and growing my knowledge through safe sleep courses and many other trainings pertaining to newborns. I look forward to hearing from you to see if I am a good fit!

Hi, I'm Koko! I serve Longmont and northern Colorado as a birth and postpartum doula. I offer placenta encapsulation and lactation counseling. I see in birth such a beautiful demonstration of love. The love of a mother as she uses her strength, the love of a partner in support of labor; and love of God for us as we travel through the whole process. I am blessed with the beautiful opportunity to help others welcome the precious gift of new life into this world. My life is guided by Catholic faith, marriage, and my life’s vocation of motherhood. I am DONA trained and certified through the Catholic Doula Program as both a birth and postpartum doula.
