Lactation Consulting
Providing private in-home and
in-clinic breastfeeding and lactation support within Metro Vancouver
Our Team
My name is Brianna and I am a Registered Nurse with over 10 years of experience as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and Perinatal Nurse.
​
I am very passionate and committed to providing individualized feeding support to families coping with any feeding challenges. I work with all feeding difficulties whether it is breastfeeding, chest feeding, bottle feeding or combo feeding.
​
I will work closely with you and your family to assess learning needs and provide up-to-date education, personalized care plans and effective feeding techniques. We will work together to help make your feeding goals successful by coming up with a plan that works for you.
​
My special interest is in infant oral function and the impacts on feeding. I completed the Masterclass in Oral Habilitation of the Breastfeeding Dyad in 2023.
​
Outside of working as a Lactation Consultant and Perinatal Nurse I spend much of my time with my nieces and nephew, as well as enjoying the outdoors hiking and camping, and in the winter months curled up on the couch reading a good book.

Tess RN, IBCLC
​​My name is Tess and I have been a Registered Nurse for over 10 years and have spent my entire career in neonatal/maternal health including NICU and community health. During my time working with young families and having my own children, I realized how little support families receive regarding infant feeding and how challenging this time can be. I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant to be able to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to clients during one of the most challenging but beautiful time in their lives.
I will provide client-centered care while working with you to achieve your feeding goals - whether that be breast/chest feeding, pumping, bottle feeding, or combo. I will work with you and your support system in the learning curve of infant feeding and tailor each consult to meet your family's personal feeding goals.
Outside of work, I am busy keeping up with my two young boys (ages 2 and 3), going to the beach, doing barre classes, and reading for my next book club meeting!
