Breastfeeding and starting solids are my passion projects as a Registered Dietitian and Lactation Consultant. I want to help support parents to meet their goals on their breastfeeding journey and then start solids when the time comes. I can see people at home, in the office or virtually and I accept many insurances that makes lactation care free for many families.
