As a mother of 2 young adults, I vividly remember the challenges we had with painful latch, questioning if I had enough milk, feeling like I was all thumbs, awkward with positioning and then the challenge of returning to work!

Now I spend my days helping families by providing the lactation support they need to gain confidence in their ability to provide breastmilk to their babies.

I received my initial certification in 1997 and have worked in hospitals (pediatrics and maternity), pediatrician offices and with Visiting Nurse Agency. I was the Lead facilitator of Baby Cafe at Keeping Pace in West Bridgewater, MA for some time prior to moving to private practice and helping families in their homes south of Boston, MA & at my Marshfield, MA office.

I am a tie savvy IBCLC, trained in evaluating and manging cases where tongue and/or lip tie are the cause of breastfeeding challenges and a provider who will refer to skilled local providers as needed for further evaluation and treatment.
