Nicole got started in the field of lactation after struggling to breastfeed her own daughter. As a military spouse, her family was stationed in rural North Dakota with limited resources so she had to take it upon herself to research answers to her issues and concerns. That’s when she became passionate about learning more. She knew she wanted to pursue a career in the world of breastfeeding because she didn’t want anyone to have to struggle like she did. Nicole is an International Boars Certified Lactation Consultant with over 700 hours of lactation education and has helped thousands of families reach their breastfeeding goals. Nicole also has a background in public health, psychology, and nutrition and brings a holistic approach to your concerns. Not only will she take a look at your breastfeeding concerns, but she will also dive deep into your postpartum healing and well being. Maternal mental health is something Nicole always checks in on when meeting with moms. We dive deeper than “are you okay?” Nicole believes we have to take care of the mother first, so the mom can thrive and best care for her baby. She specializes in tongue & lip tie, body tension, flange sizing, and bottle refusal.

We are here for families, every step of the way. From pregnancy to weaning and everything in between. As a military spouse I focus heavily on the military community because our support system isn’t near us. When you bring a new life into this world and are so far away from your loved ones, it adds a challenging dynamic to the most transformative time of your life.

My daughter! I dealt with a lot of postpartum depression and anxiety and being a first time mom and first generation breast-feeder, halfway across the country from my entire family, I struggled a lot. I never want a mother to feel the same way I did.
