I hold a Master’s degree in Public Health, with a background in global health and community development, which informs my comprehensive, family-centered approach to postpartum care. I am also a mother of three young daughters, and my personal journey through motherhood—including pregnancy loss and postpartum depression—has shaped my deep empathy for the emotional, physical, and logistical complexities of the postpartum period.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work, along with training as a Newborn Care Specialist, in infant sleep support, and Reiki Level 2.l certification.

Hi, I'm Suzanne Nicklas! I'm a Registered Nurse, IBCLC, Doula and Health Coach based in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. As a nurse, my passion has been working with new parents and infants. I have worked with hundreds of families in my fifteen years as a lactation consultant and doula. I love educating families prior to the birth of their baby and particularly enjoy the postpartum period. As the mother of four, my own birth experiences led me to this work. My passion for wellness started many years ago when I took the first of many health coach trainings, the first being through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I began health coaching in 2010 and since then my practice has transformed and grown in many ways. As I have grown as a person, so has my work. Along the way I have picked up skills based on my own personal interests and broadened my education and am able to share those with both my lactation and doula clients as well as my coaching clients. Some of these training include yoga, aromatherapy and reiki. It is my love of combining conventional and alternative philosophies of care that led me to Ayurveda and Yoga. My trainings have enabled me to blend the wisdom of Eastern medicine into our Western way of living to create lifestyle transformations that work in our busy day to day lives. All of my services are offered both virtually and in person. I particularly enjoy teaching Beach Yoga classes here in Coastal Southern Maine, which are offered in Old Orchard Beach from mid June - August. Lastly but most importantly, as a partner and mother of four amazing humans, I bring both personal experience and professional care to the families I serve. I am honored that you have chosen to visit my site and I look forward to working together.
