Jennie brings her own experience navigating a preterm birth and feeding challenges to every family she supports, offering warm, judgment-free guidance rooted in what she's lived through herself.
A little about what drives me, what I love about being a lactation consultant, and life outside of being an IBCLC.
After my first baby was born preterm with high jaundice levels, I had to fight to get her fed at breast — a life-changing experience that gave me deep respect for the people who supported us. I wanted to pay that forward to other families.
I feel honored to be welcomed into such private, meaningful moments in a family's life. I love celebrating small, step-by-step successes and following up with families throughout their journey.
I'll assess where things stand and talk through options together, one step at a time — always in your back pocket for questions and continued guidance. Above all, it's your body, your baby, your goals.
I love all things attachment parenting — extended breastfeeding, babywearing, co-sleeping, and cloth diapering — which led me to homeschool my kids too! I'm casually learning piano, discovering pickleball, and spending time with family and friends.
Jennie sees families across the entire Chicago area, including the Northwest Suburbs, the Western Suburbs, and the North Shore & North Suburbs.
