History
My business started from the heart. In 2011 my son was diagnosed with failure to thrive and low milk supply. I had no breastfeeding support available to me and I was doing this all alone. One night, when I was at my lowest with breastfeeding, I vowed that one day I will be that support person that mothers need. No one should have to do this alone. From that moment I worked very hard to work towards being a Lactation Specialist.
