I've been working with babies and new moms for more than 35 years. I first started working in the NICU in 1980, then moved to the newborn nursery in 1985. I became certified as an IBCLC in 1997 and opened my business, Baby Expressions in Houston, TX that same year. I worked with moms and their babies, in their homes for more than 20 years, when we retired to north Georgia. I missed working with moms and babies, so I opened my business here in Georgia. I've worked with moms and preemies as well as older infants, and all ages in between.

As a lactation consultant, I make home visits to help new, and experienced mothers with any difficulties or concerns they have as they breastfeed their infant. These concerns might include, but are not limited to latching issues, low milk production, painful nursing, low weight gain, as well as questions about pumping and going back to work.
