Hi, my name is Rachel and I can help you feed your baby. I am an experienced Registered Nurse, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and a mother of two grown babies who had feeding issues. I have been in your shoes. I have worked with countless families. Together, we can help your baby eat.
My goal is to give you the tools and understanding about what your baby is telling us they need to eat well.
