I provide thoughtful care that honours both the complexities of feeding and each parent’s unique experience, helping families find their way with feeding. Finding Your Way was created to offer supportive, evidence-based lactation and breastfeeding care for parents navigating feeding challenges at any stage. I am a Registered Practical Nurse, practicing since 2005, and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. I have experience supporting families across clinical and community settings, including prenatal education, breastfeeding support, and community based nursing roles with pregnant and postpartum families. My approach to supporting you with Finding Your Way through breastfeeding is by listening closely, observing what’s happening, and helping you make sense of feeding concerns without pressure or judgment. My interest in lactation support is both professional and personal. I breastfed both of my children and experienced significant challenges along the way. Like many parents, I sought support and found it difficult to access timely, knowledgeable care. With guidance and persistence, I was able to continue breastfeeding and I learned firsthand how isolating and overwhelming feeding difficulties can feel when support is limited. I believe parents already carry instincts about their babies. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to help you understand what’s happening, consider your options, and work through challenges in a way that aligns with your goals and values. Support is available prenatally, in the early weeks, and as feeding evolves over time. Wherever you are in your feeding journey, you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
