Lactation Consultant and Postpartum Doula

Currently, I am working as a Lactation Consultant in the day/afternoons, and as a Postpartum Doula overnight 3-5x a week, specializing in lactation and feeding. I have additional training in Lactation Counseling, Infant Massage, Adult and Infant CPR, First Aid, and Infant Microbiome and Epigenetics. In 2019 I discovered my passion for the postpartum period, decided to train as a Postpartum Doula with DONA International instead of becoming a nurse, and became Certified in 2022. Before 2023 came to an end, I completed the UCSD Extended Studies Program for Lactation Education Counseling and became a Certified Lactation Counselor through ALPP in 2025. After using this credential to provide lactation support to my postpartum clients (clarifying which role I was using for each service I provided), to educate birth workers and expectant families around lactation basics, and to counsel the public in their feeding journies, I decided to further my education and training by following the IBCLC Pathway 1 route. I became an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) once I passed the boards in Sept. 2025. My goal is to continue to empower families through the perinatal period using both of my hats as a postpartum doula and lactation professional, staying within the scope of practice during whichever role I am hired for.
