Welcome to Lactation Arts! I am an artist and nurse, as well as an IBCLC lactation consultant with over 20 years of experience in labor and delivery, pediatrics, NICU, maternal newborn nursing, and breastfeeding support. I have been an IBCLC-International Board Certified Lactation Consultant since 2011. As a published author of lactation and birth education materials for families, I also serve as an expert lecturer on implementing the Baby Friendly/Virginia Breastfeeding Friendly Hospital Initiative. Additionally, I am a proud member of The United States Lactation Consultant Association and The Virginia Breastfeeding Coalition. I am a mother to two beautiful breastfed daughters. 

I believe in optimism. 

From my experience, with the right breastfeeding support, fears melt away, doubt is replaced with confidence, and parenting in every form becomes blissful and joyful! 

I am happy to show you how!
