I've been working with lactating families in the Midland, MI area for over 15 years. My children are now in their teenage and adult years, but all were breastfed for various lengths of time and through many struggles. Even before I had my own children, I had a passion for working with parents and their babies. My education and experience in social work focused on infant mental health and early chi
ld development. I often tell my clients I am NOT the "breastfeeding police." Breastfeeding looks like many different things for many different families, whether it involves exclusive breastfeeding, pumping, bottles, formula, donor milk, etc. My goal is to provide you with the information and support you need to make the best decisions for your family, meet your own feeding goals, and establish a rewarding, confident relationship with your baby. As I have with many clients before you, I will provide a non-judgmental, nurturing, and professional approach to serving your family. Professional growth and continuing education are vital to improve patient outcomes. Areas of specialty include low milk supply, infant colic/reflux, tongue and lip tie/oral rehabilitation, bottle feeding, weaning, and working while lactating.
