IBCLC Lactation Support

Hi! We are Lisa, Katie, Kelsey, and Hannah, a team of Registered Nurses and International Board-Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs). With extensive experience in supporting new and evolving postpartum families, we initially met as postpartum nurses at VCU Hospital, where our individual journeys toward becoming IBCLCs began.

Throughout our careers, we have worked in various hospitals both within and beyond Richmond, as well as in local pediatrician offices. These diverse settings have provided us with hands-on experience and a comprehensive understanding of lactation-related challenges. We have successfully assisted thousands of women in navigating their unique breastfeeding concerns and developing tailored feeding plans that meet their families' specific needs.

your goals are our goals

We offer evidence-based and experienced-based care to help you with any breastfeeding/pumping struggles you are going through. We want you to feel confident in your decision to provide any amount of breast milk to your baby because we know how hard it can be! We know feeding your baby is tailor-made for you — internet and blog searches are not going to provide you with one-on-one personalized care plans and compassionate feed back, so let us help!
