Welcome to Rooted Maternal Wellness! We’re so glad you’re here. My name is Nicole, and as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I’m passionate about supporting families in their feeding journey. Whether you’re breastfeeding, pumping, or using a combination of methods, my goal is to provide personalized, evidence-based care that meets your unique needs. With virtual consultations available to moms everywhere and in-home visits in Monmouth and Burlington Counties, I’m here to help you every step of the way.
Why Lactation Support Matters
Becoming a parent is one of the most rewarding experiences, but it can also come with its challenges—especially when it comes to feeding your baby. Many new moms face difficulties with breastfeeding, from latch issues and milk supply concerns to understanding feeding cues and managing the transition to solid foods. This is where expert lactation support becomes invaluable.
Lactation consultants provide more than just advice; we offer reassurance, practical solutions, and emotional support during what can be a vulnerable time. At Rooted Maternal Wellness, I believe that every mom deserves access to the best care, no matter how you choose to feed your baby. My role is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to nurture your baby’s health and well-being.
What to Expect from a Lactation Consultation
If you’ve never had a lactation consultation before, you might be wondering what to expect. Whether you choose a virtual session or an in-home visit, each consultation is tailored to your specific needs. Here’s a glimpse into what our time together will look like:
Assessment: We’ll begin by discussing your feeding goals, any challenges you’ve encountered, and your baby’s feeding habits. This allows me to get a clear picture of your situation and to start developing a plan that works for you.
Guidance: I’ll observe a feeding session (if applicable) to assess your baby’s latch, positioning, and overall feeding behavior. From there, I’ll provide you with practical tips and techniques to improve feeding and make it more comfortable for both you and your baby.
Support: Beyond the technical aspects, I’m here to listen to your concerns and offer emotional support. Whether you’re a first-time mom or navigating feeding challenges with your second or third child, you’re not alone. I’ll be with you every step of the way, providing the encouragement and resources you need to succeed.
