Based in Toronto, I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a Certified Lactation Counselor (CBI), and completed the Mohawk College Breastfeeding Program.

My Approach

I have no agenda in supporting each client other than to help them understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The infant feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is no single right way to navigate it.

I have no agenda in supporting each client other than to help them understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The infant feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is no single right way to navigate it. As a lactation consultant in Toronto, I am also proud to offer infant feeding support at rates that fit your budget. I believe this work is essential, and cost should never be a barrier; please contact me below to request information on sliding scale pricing for home visits.

Why you should work with me

Inclusive, compassionate and non-biased support

Everyone is welcome. I use inclusive language and adjust my terminology based on your comfort levels. You deserve quality and respectful care that helps you meet your goals and supports your family in the way you need. My work as a lactation consultant in Toronto is trauma-informed, and up-to-date, providing warm and professional support virtually or in your home. 

Slow care model

I bring care that is not rushed or hurried, especially when it comes to breastfeeding and infant feeding at home. Problem-solving and planning as a new parent take patience, as babies don't usually perform on command. That's why my lactation consultant services in Toronto include text or email support following your consult.

Proven results

As a lactation consultant in Toronto, I provide comfort and confidence boosts for parents. I've worked with hundreds of families, helping them meet their goals such as fixing nipple pain, achieving exclusive nursing, building a pumped milk stash, overcoming breast or bottle refusal,  increasing milk supply, effectively combo feeding, or inducing lactation. I've been so privileged to be invited back into the homes of past clients to support their second or third babies with infant feeding. There is no greater honor than that.

Accessible pricing options

When cost is a barrier to accessing breastfeeding support, I offer sliding scale options for infant feeding assistance. Clients are encouraged to choose the payment level that feels best for them, and as a lactation consultant based in Toronto, I will never ask you to justify your choice. All cost levels receive the same high-quality care, whether at home or in person.
