Lactation & Infant Feeding Support

Support for however you feed your baby.

Whether you are planning for the arrival of a baby and want to learn about lactation & infant feeding before their arrival, make a plan to induce lactation, or you are having feeding challenges with a baby who is here, you are in the right place. I offer holistic, person-centred feeding support regardless of how you feed your baby.

What kind of lactation & infant feeding support do I offer?

I am an Integrative Lactation & Infant Feeding Specialist. This qualification, earned via Manhattan Birth, has prepared me to support families no matter which of the many ways they are feeding their baby; whether you are exclusively formula feeding, chestfeeding or breastfeeding, combination feeding, bottle feeding, inducing lactation, I am here for you. I take a whole-person, whole-family approach when assisting new parents in feeding their babies. I work with each family in their own unique and specific circumstances, helping them to find the best and most positive way for them to feed their baby. Instead of considering something “normal” and everything outside of that a “variation,” I understand that each family has their own normal.

I am here to help you become the expert in feeding your baby.

  • "Lara was amazing in helping with our breastfeeding journey. My daughter and I had issues right off the bat pretty much, I was on the verge of giving up within the first week. Lara helped us via Zoom. It was game changing! They were so incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. They continued to help anytime I had follow up questions or concerns and checked in with us regularly. I would highly recommend them to anyone!"
