Welcome!
I am a IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) with over 25 years of experience helping new mothers overcome problems with breastfeeding. I am educated and practiced in offering you reassurance and can troubleshoot specific issues with you. Helping new mothers with breastfeeding is more passion than profession and I have dedicated my life to helping new moms all around the world bond and nourish their new babies.
My passion to help new mothers began in 1990 as a La Leche League leader after a leader helped me with breastfeeding challenges. I led numerous groups and helped many, many mothers as a leader. In 2002 I became an IBCLC and began a private practice. I joined the NY State WIC Training Center where I worked with the Department of Health in developing many breastfeeding resources and a nationally recognized breastfeeding website for WIC parents and WIC breastfeeding peer counselors. With the NY State WIC program I travelled across NY state and NJ, implementing breastfeeding trainings.
I joined a leading provider of telehealth lactation services, seeing over 1,000 parents virtually.
Every baby and every breastfeeding journey is different, together I can help you reach your breastfeeding goal! My goal is to listen to you and hear your story, to help you through this challenging time and help you enjoy your breastfeeding journey.
