Today is IBCLC day! 🎉So I thought I’d take today to reintroduce myself here in case we haven’t met or you’re new here!
My name is Cassie Getting! (Yes, my last name is Getting-not just a play on words with the name of the business!) I’ve been an IBCLC for 2 years now and prior to that I was a certified lactation counselor. I’ve been in private practice for coming up on two years this summer, which is WILD that’s it’s already been that long! 🤯 I love being in private practice as it allows me to serve you in the best way for YOU and YOUR family and isn’t dictated by insurance, time constraints of traditional healthcare, and allows me to be flexible in meeting with you as the client when clinics aren’t typically open & allows me to see you in the comfort of your own home or virtually in addition to in my office!
Additionally, my background is in nursing. I’ve been a Registered Nurse for 8 years and have worked in Pediatrics, the NICU, rural medicine doing a bit of everything, including Med-Surg & ER, and finally, labor, delivery, and postpartum! My heart has always been with moms and babies though and has grown for it even more since becoming a mom myself!
I’m a stay at home mom in addition to my role in private practice and have three (almost 4!) littles, ages 5, 4, 2, and due next month with our fourth miracle baby!
I’ve struggled with breastfeeding my own babies & because of this wanted to bridge the gap in our rural area of Southwest Minnesota in providing lactation support to moms, infants, and their families. From my own struggles, my love for lactation & supporting families in their journeys was born.
Enough about me, where are you at?! Let me know in the comments!
