Lactation
Lactation Support from Prenatal Through Postpartum
Lactation support is woven into The Birth Center’s care: from prenatal education, immediate and prolonged skin to skin after birth, and expert assessments and feedback during IBCLC consults.
Serving our entire community even if you didn’t have a Birth Center baby.
As an experienced International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with a rich background in nursing and many other feeding difficulties, our Staff Lactation Consultant/Family Nurse Practitioner will guide clients towards their breast/chestfeeding and expression goals with grace and confidence!
