Lactation Consultant, IBCLC
"Milkmade at Home"
Helping,
supporting and advising new mothers. On 3rd avenue, downtown. Warm
and friendly, her "Breastfeeding" and "Beyond Basics"
Breastfeeding Classes will have you well prepared for the joys of
breastfeeding.
"Due to
inexperience or lack of information many new mothers are faced with
problems at the onset of motherhood. I have many clients who were
referred to us when their baby had significant weight loss, insufficient
breastmilk transfer, or the baby was not able to latch to the breast
due to nipple structure. These parents could absolutely reassure
you that I have the patience and skills to 'get the job done' ---
along with the patience and dedicated efforts of the parents."

Doctor May Not Tell You About Caring for Your Baby
"…excellent book. I had to
have my highlighter at the ready the entire time I was reading it.
The references are fantastic. Thank you so much for your great work.
We quote Baby Matters at our conferences and feel it would
be helpful for the students, mostly labor and delivery nurses, to
have it available." --Carole
