My name is Natasha, pronouns she/her, mom, gardener, and life-long learner. My mission is so simple: to provide accessible and non-biased support for all people navigating journeys of lactation and infant feeding. I am a Toronto-based International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Certified Lactation Counselor (CBI), completed the Mohawk College Breastfeeding Program, and I am a DONA trained postpartum doula. My doula training directly informs my feeding support style, allowing me to be present and engaged, never rushed, and always there for you. I have no agenda in support other than to help each client understand their own goals and work together to achieve them. The feeding journey looks different for everyone, and there is not one right way to do it.

My name is Keirstan Johnson, and I am a trained birth doula currently completing my certification through DONA International. In addition to birth support, I am a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (CBS) with specialized training in lactation education and infant feeding support. As a mother myself, I understand that every pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience is unique. My goal is to provide evidence-based information, emotional support, and compassionate guidance so you can feel informed, confident, and empowered in your decisions. Whether you're creating a birth plan, preparing for labor, navigating breastfeeding challenges, or adjusting to life with a new baby, I strive to meet you where you are without judgment. I believe every family deserves personalized support, encouragement, and advocacy throughout the childbearing journey. It is an honor to walk alongside families during such a transformative season of life, helping them feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way. I currently serve families throughout Western New York and look forward to helping you create a positive and empowering birth experience and breastfeeding journey if that is part of your goal. I look forward to helping you with: • Birth Planning • Labor & Birth Support • Breastfeeding & Lactation Support • Postpartum Adjustment • Evidence-Based Birth Information • Trauma Informed Care I also am passionate about creating a village because motherhood was never meant to do alone. I work with The Village of WNY that has many resources and host free events for moms and their children called Moms & Littles of Niagara County!

I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with more than 25 years experience. I have worked internationally to promote, protect, and support breastfeeding/chestfeeding. My strong clinical skills are coupled with program development, evaluation, and not-for-profit experience. My unique skill set allows me to offer a comprehensive healthcare approach to families. Family-centred care is the cornerstone of my service. I adopt a holistic approach to understand all factors that may impact the breastfeeding dyad, and I strive to provide culturally concordant healthcare. A lactation consultant is an essential member of a prenatal and family healthcare team. They play a pivotal role in infant feeding, particularly breastfeeding. I can support families in preparing to breastfeed, address feeding challenges (including supplementation), and offer continued guidance until weaning. I strive to protect maternal-child health, promote emotional well-being, and empower families to navigate the complexities of breastfeeding. Furthermore, my dedication to family-centred healthcare was strengthened when I completed a Diploma in Herbal Medicine from England. I offer one-on-one herbal consultations to mothers in the perinatal period. During the consultation, mothers are given a space to express their current health concerns.

I also have lots of experience with mothers and their health issues, feeding issues, breast milk production/supply, post partum depression, and mothers who need a bit of encouragement and understanding. I am happy to assist and help the way you want to feed your baby with no judgement, making your transition as a new parent much easier.

Hello and welcome to Flowerbud Lactation! My name is Amanda and I am a lactation consultant with a background in Neonatal ICU and pediatrics nursing.

What sets me apart from other lactation consultants is my specialization in maternal mental health. I am passionate about supporting moms who are struggling with anxiety, depression, baby blues, PTSD (abuse or sexual trauma), and other challenges. I am dedicated to creating a safe and comfortable space for parents to share their experiences and seek guidance. At Flowerbud Lactation, we provide personalized care and support to help families achieve their feeding goals.
