About Gwinnett Breastfeeding

Board-Certified Lactation Support for Atlanta & Gwinnett Families

Gwinnett Breastfeeding was founded in 2020 to provide personalized, evidence-based lactation care to families in Duluth, Gwinnett County, and the greater Atlanta area.

As a board-certified IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), I support families through breastfeeding, pumping, bottle transitions, and newborn feeding challenges with care that is tailored to your goals.

Whether you visit our Duluth office or schedule a virtual consultation from anywhere in Metro Atlanta, our approach remains the same: thoughtful, individualized, and grounded in clinical expertise.

Why I Started Gwinnett Breastfeeding

Feeding your baby is deeply personal. No two families have the same goals, circumstances, or experiences.

When I envisioned Gwinnett Breastfeeding, I imagined a space where a woman’s body and innate ability are honored and championed. A place where she can come to learn, to gather, and to grow as she navigates the newness of motherhood — without losing herself in the process.

Within our walls, parents are welcomed into a safe, supportive environment where both physiological and emotional wellbeing matter. We believe lactation care should strengthen confidence, not create pressure. Whether you are exclusively breastfeeding, pumping, combination feeding, or still deciding what feels right, your journey is respected here.

Breastfeeding is family business. Partners and support people are always welcome. Our goal is to provide evidence-based lactation support in Duluth and throughout the greater Atlanta area that honors your body, your baby, and your lived experience.

What Makes Our Lactation Care Different

At Gwinnett Breastfeeding, we focus on:

• Comprehensive maternal and infant assessment

• Hands-on latch and positioning guidance

• Pumping evaluation and flange fitting

• Milk supply protection and optimization

• Bottle refusal and feeding transitions

• Return-to-work planning

• Prenatal breastfeeding preparation

Every consultation includes a personalized written care plan and follow-up communication so you are not navigating feeding challenges alone.

Families travel from Atlanta, Lawrenceville, Suwanee, Norcross, and Alpharetta for care that prioritizes both feeding success and parental confidence.

Credentials & Professional Standards

IBCLC is the highest internationally recognized credential in lactation care. Board-certified IBCLCs complete extensive clinical hours, advanced coursework, and a comprehensive examination. Certification requires ongoing continuing education to maintain clinical excellence.

Our team’s experience spans hospitals, pediatric practices, postpartum units, newborn clinics, NICU settings, and private practice. This depth allows us to provide evidence-based lactation support grounded in both clinical expertise and real-world experience.

Our Duluth Location & Virtual Services

Our office is located in Duluth, Georgia, serving families throughout:

• Gwinnett County

• Fulton County

• Metro Atlanta

We also offer secure virtual lactation consultations for families across Georgia.

Our Long-Term Mission

Gwinnett Breastfeeding exists to help parents feel confident providing nutrition to their babies — whether that includes direct breastfeeding, pumping, combination feeding, or bottle feeding.

Feeding support should reduce stress, not add to it.

Our goal is to support your milk supply, your baby, and your mental wellbeing with thoughtful, individualized care.

Our Philosophy on Lactation Care

At Gwinnett Breastfeeding, we are rooted in the belief that women’s bodies are designed with the innate ability to nourish their infants. Most families have access to lactation support within their community, yet many still need individualized guidance to feel confident and supported.

We are committed to providing inclusive, comprehensive lactation care to every family we serve. Our approach blends holistic understanding with clinical, evidence-based expertise. While families often come to us seeking feeding help, each family’s goals are different. We support you in making informed choices that align with your values, your baby’s needs, and your lived experience.

We meet families where they are — without judgment. That means we address all feeding concerns, whether related to breastfeeding, pumping, combination feeding, or bottle transitions, so your baby can feed well and you can feel confident.

Breastfeeding can be a beautiful and deeply meaningful experience. It can also be complex. Having the support of an experienced, board-certified lactation consultant provides clarity and reassurance during a vulnerable season.

Our team is advanced trained, with experience in lactation clinics, pediatric offices, postpartum care, birth and postpartum doula support, newborn clinics, and NICU settings. We are knowledgeable in oral function and tethered oral tissues (TOTs), and we provide thoughtful guidance and referrals when appropriate.

Families can choose office, home, or virtual consultations. We also offer local support groups that blend peer-to-peer encouragement with expert facilitation. Our classes create space for education and connection with other parents in the Duluth and greater Atlanta community.

All services can be booked online, and we always welcome your call.

Holistic Birth & Doula Support

My journey into birth work began with a desire to ensure women receive continuous support, a strong physiological understanding of their changing bodies, and the confidence to make informed decisions during pregnancy and birth.

Pregnancy brings significant physical and emotional changes, and families deserve space to explore those changes outside of brief clinical appointments. Birth is more than trimesters and stages of labor. It is a transformative experience.

Every woman deserves committed support throughout pregnancy and birth. As a doula, my role is to provide steady presence, education, and encouragement so you feel informed, empowered, and supported throughout your journey.

Who We Support

We support families throughout Duluth, Gwinnett County, and the greater Atlanta area who are:

• First-time parents navigating early feeding challenges

• Parents experiencing painful latch or nipple damage

• Families concerned about weight gain or milk supply

• Working parents preparing to pump and return to work

• Parents navigating bottle refusal

• Families seeking prenatal breastfeeding preparation

If you are searching for a lactation consultant in Atlanta or Gwinnett County, early support can prevent small concerns from becoming overwhelming.
