About Me
Hello!
My name is Victoria. I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), postpartum nurse, and one of few qualified lactation specialists in the Niagara region to provide lactation support with the highest standing certification.
I am passionate about helping breastfeeding/chestfeeding parents and their infants achieve a rewarding and fulfilling breastfeeding journey. I have worked with a diverse range of families, assisting with issues such as latching difficulties, low milk supply, infant weight gain, oral restrictions, pumping issues, and more. As an IBCLC my goal is not only to provide practical support but also to empower parents with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed choices for their breastfeeding/chestfeeding journey. I am committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all, and I am looking forward to assisting you in meeting your infant feeding goals!
My Story
My passion for lactation care and women’s health started over a decade ago, with my own breastfeeding journey. I was a young mom with little experience in feeding my baby and with many difficulties along the way; cracked nipples, painful latch, tongue ties, recurring mastitis, pumping difficulties. I was lucky to have met with an amazing lactation consultant, who not only helped me overcome my struggles but also inspired me to pursue a career in the field. Since then, I have completed rigours lactation education, training, and mentorship and become board-certified by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners.
I have successfully helped numerous families overcome their feeding challenges and meet their goals, while making them feel seen, understood, and empowered. I am excited to meet with you and help you onto a feeding journey that you can enjoy and cherish.
