Hi there, I’m Hillary!
I’m a mama of two who is passionate about women’s healthcare. When my son was born I learned the hard way what a lack of support, misinformation, and the isolation of new-motherhood can do to your mental health and confidence as a parent. In my 30’s I left my career as a CPA and dedicated myself full-time to helping families and their babies start out right.
My mission is to help families “find their feet” and grow into the parents they hope to be.
It takes a village to raise a child and in Canadian society we have largely forgotten this. Families are left to figure out parenting on their own, including infant feeding. Lactation consultants work as part of your medical team and overall village to navigate the transition to parenthood and overcome the unique challenges that each baby-and-parent combo experience.
Supported by an incredible team of IBCLCs and pediatricians, I am building a career focused on empowering education and encouragement for families navigating the joys and uncertainties of breastfeeding. I understand firsthand the complexities and emotions that come with this journey, and the necessity of judgment-free assistance and guidance to families, regardless of their unique dynamics and backgrounds.
No matter where you find yourself in your parenting journey, I am here to meet you with compassion, understanding, and commitment to offer the support you deserve.
I am excited about the journey ahead and the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of families in need of gentle, empowering guidance.
