As a mom, a nurse and the only private practice International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) between Edmonton and Grande Prairie, I am dedicated to helping you prepare for the best breastfeeding relationship with your baby to be.
Seeking out support pre-natally is the best way to ensure a great start to nursing your new babe. While it may be natural, it doesn’t always come naturally and knowing what to expect and how to deal with the most common challenges before they become overwhelming. No mama needs the extra stress in the days after birth.
If baby is already here and you’re already stressed – take heart, I have all the tools you need to help turn it around. If you are experiencing any issues with breastfeeding, time is of the essence – head over to my booking page and choose a time that works for you.
A lactation consultant is a health professional who specializes in the clinical management of breastfeeding. The International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners certifies lactation consultants who meet its criteria and have passed its exam.
