Hi! I am a Naturopathic Doctor and IBCLC, focused on providing inclusive, judgement-free support for infant feeding. I'm also the founder of Your Downtown Doula is a collective of Naturopathic Doulas who provide education and support throughout pregnancy, birth and postpartum. We believe that every family deserves a positive pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience.

My name is Natasha, pronouns she/her, mom, gardener, and life-long learner. My mission is so simple: to provide accessible and non-biased support for all people navigating journeys of lactation and infant feeding. I am a Toronto-based International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Lactation Counselor (CBI), completed the Mohawk College Breastfeeding Program, and I am a DONA trained postpartum doula. My doula training directly informs my feeding support style, allowing me to be present and engaged, never rushed, and always there for you. I have no agenda in support other than to help each client understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is not one right way to do it.

I have spent my entire career as a Registered Nurse helping families navigate pregnancy, feeding, and postpartum. My experience spans from hospital Labour and Delivery to community nursing with Toronto Public Health's Healthy Babies Healthy Children program, the Ocama Collective and Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre. I look forward to helping you feed your baby!

I am a Certified Professional Life Coach, a Registered Nurse, and I am experienced as an IBCLC and was certified in 2012 and 2017. In 2015, I completed training to teach the Baby Friendly Initiative 20-hour course to Caregivers of Breastfeeding Moms . Most of my nursing experience is in Maternal Child, Newborn Nursery, Intensive Care Nursery, Maternity, Pediatrics and Lactation Consulting in hospital as well as during the postpartum period. Contact me at 716-512-3654 or cathylang716@gmail. com to set up your free coaching session. I would love to help you transition from pregnancy to parenthood while being supported every step of the way.

Hello and welcome to Flowerbud Lactation! My name is Amanda and I am a lactation consultant with a background in Neonatal ICU and pediatrics nursing. After spending several years supporting families through the toughest times as a NICU nurse, I discovered my passion for infant feeding and breastfeeding. My philosophy is centered around compassion, kindness, and non-judgmental support. I believe in empowering parents with knowledge and helping them feel confident in their feeding choices. What sets me apart from other lactation consultants is my specialization in maternal mental health. I am passionate about supporting moms who are struggling with anxiety, depression, baby blues, PTSD (abuse or sexual trauma), and other challenges. I am dedicated to creating a safe and comfortable space for parents to share their experiences and seek guidance. At Flowerbud Lactation, we provide personalized care and support to help families achieve their feeding goals. We believe that every parent deserves access to quality lactation support, and we are committed to making that a reality. Thank you for considering Flowerbud Lactation, and we look forward to supporting you on your breastfeeding journey.

I love God, my family, my pup Boo, everything birth, and empowering families through education because knowledge is power! I love teaching birth doula workshops through DONA and have been a doula for 27 years, a Trainer for 17 years, and a CLC. Join my 3-day workshop from anywhere as I teach mostly virtually through Zoom.us and you'll receive 3 certificates, all of which are the first steps in becoming certified through DONA International. Now is the time to become a doula! Many States are getting on board with Medicaid paying a Doula for their services!

Hi! My name is Lexi, I am a postpartum doula, and soon to be birth doula! (April 2024!!!). I come from a community with very limited resources for pregnancy, birth and postpartum. My goal is to help that. I myself want to be a resource for you, to allow you to have the birth and postpartum journey that you want. I aim to provide families with resources, confidence and peace. I focus mainly on breastfeeding support, nutrition and meal prepping, postpartum prep, and most of all, just being a listening, non judgmental, supportive ear or shoulder. In my spare time I love to spend time with my 3 year old daughter, go for walks and practice yoga. Let’s make your postpartum journey peaceful, cozy, and most importantly let’s make it what you want!

Hi I’m Phyllis Sharp, a mother of 5 children. I have been a full time doula for 5yrs. I love supporting birthing families. I am also a certified lactation counselor and enjoy sharing my knowledge to help others have a successful feeding journey.

I was drawn to becoming a birth doula because I saw firsthand the difference that informed, loving support can make. Having gone through my own birth trauma, I realized that a little help goes a long way during this tender phase. I also have a passion for breastfeeding and lactation education. I love to support families that are latching, pumping, bottle feeding, donating, etc.
