I was breastfed, I breastfed my two daughters, and they are breastfeeding moms to their babies, too! It definitely wasn’t always easy, with tongue ties, and flat nipples, and prematurity, but we had good support and were able to make it work.

The opportunity to improve two lives and have a massively positive impact on their future health.

I always used to say “if I wasn’t a Chiropractor, I would want to be a Lactation Consultant!” One day, I decided to make that dream come true, and now I predominantly work as an IBCLC.

I am passionate about breastmilk being the biological norm and the vastly superior source of nutrition for infants and beyond. I am passionate about breastfeeding for the emotional security it provides for babies and the bonding experience for moms. I want to help all moms who want to breastfeed do so with support and confidence.

Listen to your intuition. No expert or professional knows your baby like you do. If you don’t feel listened to or respected, find another provider. Always do what you feel is best for your baby. So many parents get intimidated by healthcare providers, and go against their own gut feelings about their child’s health. Find a provider who will listen to you and discuss options for your child’s care, not override you or push you into a decision.
