A lactation consultant to support you in your breastfeeding journey
Does your baby nurse for hours? Have you been told that your milk does not nourish him enough? Are you worried about going back to work and thinking you have to wean? Does baby wake you every hour to nurse? are you breastfeeding in pain? do you hear contradictory information about breastfeeding? Do you want to wean your toddler?
I am an IBCLC : I offer information and support services on the themes of breastfeeding, baby sleep and parenting, via Telehealth, face-to-face in Lyon (at the Lyon 9 Vaise office or at home) or online programs.
I let you discover my services
Hope to meet you!
