This ignited a fire for me to complete the certification process to become a lactation counselor as well. I provide overnight support of newborns as well resources and education on various infant care topics. I also do in home lactation visits.

Hi my name is Allison! Helping families with breastfeeding is my passion. As a mother myself, I've gone through feeding struggles firsthand. What I've learned is that having good support is key to getting feeding off to a great start. Being a young mom with a baby in the NICU and going through pre-eclampsia without support, ignited the fire in me to help others have the support that I needed during that fragile time. I completed my IBCLC certification through UC San Diego Extention under Dr. Gini Baker in 2019 and did my clinical work at SJGH's NICU wing. I currently offer in home lactation consults in the San Joaquin and Sacramento areas, as well as virtual consults.
