About Intuitive Parenting Network
What is IPN?
Founded in 1990 by Jennifer Tow, the mission of the IPN is to provide education, support and products that support parents in intentionally raising families in a healthy, conscious and integrative way. We believe this instills an innate wisdom in children, for whom awareness, knowledge and adept skill with these tools becomes their native language. It is our personal vision that lactation consultants in private practice may become a force for reversing the trend towards the medicalization of breastfeeding. Looking forward, we hope to have the option of providing a broader service to clients which more rightly reflect a support for primal nutrition for families both in the period before conception and the early years of life.

Her interests are focused in the areas of epigenetics and the microbiome, gut-brain health, airway function and oral functional competency, exploring the profoundly far-reaching implications of this work for breastfeeding dyads.
While residing between the USA & France, Jennifer established an international client base and now sees most of her clients on-line, specializing in collaborating with her clients in resolving complex breastfeeding issues. With a Master's in Holistic Health Coaching, her reputation for guiding parents through these issues stems from her ability to integrate holistic modalities and an expanded skill-set, such as myofunctional therapy and craniosacral fascial therapy, into her practice.
