Augustine Lactation exists to serve the community I love, with a special heart for NICU mothers. I am first and foremost a mama myself, intimately aware of how closely lactation and motherhood are interwoven. I have also been a nurse for 10 years, an IBCLC for 6 years of those years, with heavy emphasis in the NICU and outpatient clinical spaces. These experiences have culminated in my desire for parents to feel valued, listened to, and ultimately better equipped to feed their babies — and families to feel stronger and more confident.
Together we’ll navigate the days of lactation, however that looks for you: establishing supply, managing latch and pain, returning to work, navigating pumping, tandem feeding, relactation, weaning, a NICU journey. Using evidence-based practice with clinical expertise, we will develop an individualized care plan and follow-up that keeps you moving forward.
Thank you for trusting me with your family in this next great adventure; I cannot wait to meet you and hear your story.
your breastie,
Kathryn
I’m Kathryn.
