I became interested in supporting people in the birthing year after experiencing tremendous struggles myself. I know the difference good support makes. Over the years, my own medical journeys have led me to pursue a deeper look into what families need to be successful in their feeding goals. I love finding the root cause of struggles and finding sustainable solutions to feeding challenges. Having worked as a postpartum doula gave me deep insight into the whole picture of the postpartum period, the diversity of needs, and the importance of empathy and grace for people who are struggling. I love getting to know babies as people, as well as parents, and helping people enjoy this short period of time, even when things may not be easy. I also love collaborating with other professionals, to build community and a "village" for the families I work with.
