When did you know you wanted to become an IBCLC?

When I was working at a pediatric office, I spent a lot of time on phone triage. A majority of questions from concerned parents revolved around feeding their infant, and I realized what a benefit it would be for families to have a trained resource in breastfeeding. I took my IBCLC exam while breastfeeding my first daughter!

Why did you become an IBCLC?

Knowledge is power and support in the postpartum period is irreplaceable! I want to instill confidence in every breastfeeding parent I meet.

What do you wish you could tell every parent (that they would actually do) and why?

Taking care of yourself during breastfeeding is one of the most crucial things. By taking care of yourself, you are taking care of baby!
