Seasons come and go. Sometimes seasons change soon before we are ready. The Cannon family received news requiring relocation this Summer.

My desires are that Milk & Cradle remains a resource for parents in this community. This is not a goodbye but a new season. Independent contractor positions for IBCLC and postpartum doula are available.

Sharing more as the waters clear. All current clients will continue to be supported, new clients are welcomed through June 30, 2026

A reminder to all mothers — mothers who are raising children, mothers who have experienced loss, and mothers who stepped into this role through love and circumstance — to bloom where you’ve been planted. 🤎✨️

Through the hard days, the good days, the messy moments, the grief, the healing, and the wins you didn’t think you’d make it to.

This part of life looks different for everyone, and every season brings its own challenges. But even in the middle of it all, you are still growing.

Give yourself grace. Celebrate the small victories. Keep showing up for yourself the same way you do for everyone else.

You’re doing better than you think. 💐

"I didnt think it would be this hard"

What if you could go into feeding your baby with expectations that can help you cope with the hard days. I can't promise that it will be easy but I guarantee that a prenatal breastfeeding class will provide info and resources that you may need, especially in the early days.

"I got shamed today for still breastfeeding my 2 year old. Apparently ‘She’s too old’ and ‘She’ll never stop.’ Funny how no one says that about kids drinking cow’s milk. 🐄"
