Hello, I'm Rebecca! I'm a state-certified community doula and an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant , and I'd be honored to support you in your parenting journey! I'm a mother myself and I know how crucial support was to me as I entered the world of parenting so it's my joy to offer that support to others as well. I've worked for WIC as a breastfeeding peer supporter so I have experience serving families from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds. I love connecting families to resources and supportive friend circles, such as the birth circle hosted by my church!
