Mother of a beautiful little boy, a wife, Certified Lactation Counselor and owner of Milk and Snuggles Lactation in Baltimore, Maryland. I am also a Ayurvedic trained postpartum doula with a great passion for all things birth, babies and breastfeeding.

​

I always wanted to be a mother and the birth of my son truly was the most incredible experience of my life. I spent so much time researching and planning for birth and was thankfully blessed with a complication free delivery and a healthy baby.

 

I spent most of my pregnancy preparing for birth and virtually no time thinking about postpartum. When we got home from the hospital I felt totally unprepared for the complete exhaustion and imbalance my body was going through both mentally and physically in the wake of my new baby. I struggled through learning to breastfeed and thought it was “normal” to be in excruciating pain for the first few weeks (breastfeeding should never hurt). 

 

 Through my own postpartum experience I realized the huge gap in support that exists once new parents leave the hospital especially when it comes to breastfeeding support. 

 

I want to bridge the gap in this incredibly sacred and transformative time in women lives. Becoming a mother myself truly enabled me to realize my passions in life and led me to where I am today - nurturing and supporting new moms. 

 

 It is my wish that the mothers I serve will feel deeply supported, nourished and empowered as they make their journey through postpartum and lactation.
