My journey into motherhood has been anything but ordinary.
My son was diagnosed with over 25 anaphylactic food allergies in his first year of life.
Through my own various challenges in breastfeeding my children, I became motivated to help others navigate where I once felt alone and unsupported.
As a new mom, I pursued my IBCLC certification through a rigorous training through UC San Diego through the Lactation Pathway 2 educational program.
I spent hundreds of hours of clinical training under the guidance of longtime IBCLC’s/lactation consultants at Kaiser Santa Rosa in their pediatric clinic providing hands on care to families with newborns and infants.
I approach caring for my clients in a respectful, nonjudgmental, holistic, and comprehensive manner. I speak Spanish and welcome all families and parenting adults to my practice!
The postpartum period is a transformational portal!
It is my goal for you to feel embodied and to trust your own instincts and inner wisdom as you navigate healing and caring for your new baby.
From first latch, to introducing solids, to weaning, I am here to support your infant feeding journey with compassion and care.
