Meet Vitalia
Hi, I’m Vitalia!
I am a mom, nurse and lactation consultant. I am excited to be able to help you navigate your own breastfeeding and postpartum journey !
When I had my daughter I assumed breastfeeding would come naturally, after all I was a nurse and google a bit before she was born, how hard could it be?! But I couldn't have been more wrong. It was a struggle! The first night home from the hospital I made a panic call to a local IBCLC who amazingly could see us the next morning. She not only turned our journey around , but I left our visit feeling confident as a new mother. If it wasn't for her support, I probably wouldn't have lasted a week nursing my baby. My experience with my daughter and then my son two years later along with the amazing support of my IBCLC is what lead me to become a lactation consultant.
As a mom of four ( 5,3, 8 month old twins) I very much understand the balancing act of motherhood! Not only that, but that every child and breastfeeding journey is completely unique. Which is why it is so important to me to provide individualized support to meet you where you are on your journey.
My expertise in lactation consulting is not solely academic; it's deeply rooted in my own personal experiences. Along with working with clients in private practice and in hospital settings, providing guidance and solutions for mothers facing the challenges of breastfeeding.
I understands firsthand the joys and complexities of breastfeeding, as she nursed her two young children and twins. All four babies had unique breastfeeding needs , challenging me in many different ways. My personal journey has given me a unique insight into the realities of motherhood,.
I believe, supporting the mother is the cornerstone of successful breastfeeding. I recognizes that every mother's journey is unique, and her approach is tailored to meet your specific needs and feeding goals. Whether you aspire to breastfeed exclusively or are exploring other options, I am here to work closely with you to create a personalized plan that works for you.
Outside of my role as a lactation consultant, You might find me sipping on cold brew coffee, basking in the warmth of her porch, or embarking on adventures to explore new gluten-free bakeries. It's in these moments of quiet enjoyment and exploration that she recharges her spirit and finds inspiration to continue supporting mothers on their unique journeys. Motherhood has taught me that even the simplest things can fill your cup!
