Women's Breastfeeding Support

A lactation consultant is a trained professional who provides guidance and support to breastfeeding mothers and their babies. The journey of parenthood is full of intense and beautiful changes.  Our minds and emotions play a vital part in our body’s milk production as well as how we connect with our baby help them to learn to feed. As we prepare our minds and bodies for birth, we should do the same in preparing for the postpartum period and breastfeeding.  Education can make navigating this beautiful relationship more enjoyable for you and baby.
