Compassionate, Evidence-Based Breastfeeding
Support in Los Angeles

Breastfeeding can be one of the most meaningful parts of caring for a newborn, but it can also come with many questions and challenges. Many parents find themselves googling late at night wondering, “Is my baby getting enough milk?”, “Why does breastfeeding hurt?”, or “How often should my newborn be feeding?” You are not alone in asking these questions. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I provide supportive, evidence-based guidance to help families feel confident and empowered during the early weeks and beyond of feeding.

My goal is to help you understand what is normal, identify when something needs support, and provide practical strategies that work for your unique situation. Whether you are concerned about milk supply, painful latch, pumping and returning to work, newborn feeding frequency, or whether your baby is gaining weight appropriately, I offer personalized lactation care designed to meet you where you are. Feeding a baby should not feel confusing or overwhelming, and having the right support can make all the difference.

Many of the parents I work with come to me with questions like: “How do I increase my milk supply?”, “Why is my baby feeding every hour?”, “How do I know if my baby is latching correctly?”, or “Is it normal for breastfeeding to hurt?” Together, we look at the full picture of feeding—your baby’s latch, milk transfer, diaper output, feeding cues, and weight gain—to ensure your baby is getting the nourishment they need and that feeding feels sustainable for you.

If you are looking for trusted breastfeeding support in Los Angeles, I offer compassionate guidance for families navigating the early days of newborn feeding. From establishing breastfeeding and improving latch to pumping plans and milk supply concerns, my approach is grounded in current research and gentle, practical care that helps both parents and babies thrive.
