I am the Mother of six, my first  two  were full term natural hospital births my next three were home births and one preemie induced at 33 weeks after a month of PROM, he was in the NICU for 3 days never receiving a bottle. Since giving birth to my first child in 1993 and struggling with many difficulties I found La Leche League and became an accredited  La Leche League Leader in  1997 . I have continued to add to my ongoing training since . 

I am a Birth Keeper ,  3x DONA certified birth doula , Loss Doula,   Sacred postpartum doula, Lactation Councilor and CST 

I offer in home Lactation support and guidance .  I have over 27 years experience working with breastfeeding families .

I have specific ongoing training in oral tethers and started the TOTS (tethered oral ties) Support and education Group on Facebook (currently by invite only it is a private group )

Tethered Oral Ties (TOTs) is a common condition that affects many infants. Tongue and Lip Ties can contribute to difficulty with suck, swallow, breath. And so much more .

In 2020 I began assisting Dr Gary Myers with laser Tongue Tie revisions and continue with ongoing training . https://www.tooth2tooth.com   Now I assist as needed .

I  offer breastfeeding support and  evaluations pre and  post revision as well as CST (body work stretches)

In September 2020 I attended the GOLD Learning Online Tongue-tie Symposium.
