Breastfeeding Support & Education

I bring 20+ years of parenting experience plus nearly 18 years of supporting new families as a doula and IBCLC. I have supported families throughout their pregnancies, birthing journeys, early breastfeeding experiences, through the initial weeks at home and to weaning. This extensive involvement allowed me to gain valuable insights into how various dynamics and experiences influence breastfeeding outcomes. 

My commitment to fostering a nurturing environment for both parents and infants has been at the heart of my practice. Through workshops, one-on-one consultations, and community outreach, I strive to empower parents with the knowledge and confidence they need to make informed decisions about breastfeeding and parenting.

In addition to providing direct support, I have been actively involved in developing educational resources and programs that address common challenges faced by new parents. My approach is holistic, considering the physical, emotional, and practical aspects of breastfeeding.

  As part of my ongoing commitment to professional development, I regularly attend conferences and participate in research initiatives to stay updated with the latest advancements in lactation science. This ensures that the support I offer is grounded in the most current and evidence-based practices.

 Whether it's through personalized care plans or group sessions, I am dedicated to being a reliable resource and advocate for all families on their unique journeys.

I have held numerous positions on the Canadian Lactation Consultant Association (CLCA) and Saskatchewan Lactation Consultant Association (SLCA) boards over the years and am currently the Vice-chair of the SLCA.
