Help in the comfort of your home!
My history:
Certified by the International Childbirth Education Association (ICEA), and with a CA State teaching credential, I have been providing lactation, childbirth, postpartum, and parenting education and support for 30+ years. I also worked in a large OB-Gyn clinic for 26 years.
I hold several other certifications as a Lactation Educator/ Consultant through UCLA and the Evergreen Perinatal Education, LLC. I am currently teaching breastfeeding classes at the California Birth Center in Rocklin. I taught courses at San Jose State School of Nursing and currently provide classes for nursing students attending the Yuba College Nursing Program.
Along with lactation certifications, I received primary and advanced training in Biological Nurturing® /Laid-Back Breastfeeding with researcher and author, Suzanne Colson, PhD, RGN, RM.
Certified as a birth and postpartum Doula (now retired), I have welcomed many babies into the world, and helped new mamas on their journey to breastfeeding and early motherhood.
By providing in-home, one-on-one breastfeeding consultations, support, and classes, new parents don't have to pack up their newborn for help. I come to you (See reviews on Yelp). For parents outside my practice area, you are welcome to my home office in West Roseville. I do NOT charge for phone consultations.
I have three children, who were all breastfed (even though there was non-existent support and information in the hospital, pediatric offices, or culture).
The main thing I learned from my experience is that if a mother wants to breastfeed, she will succeed. Especially now that there is good information and support readily available.
