Lactation Support
Breastfeeding can come with unanticipated challenges. Our team is here to provide individualized consultations as well as follow up support to help families achieve their breastfeeding goals.
Our IBCLC certified lactation consultant has the expertise to guide you through this challenging time in a warm and compassionate manner knowing this period can be one of extreme vulnerability. Whether it's preparing for the birth of your baby, postnatal assistance or support returning to work we are here for all of your breastfeeding needs!
Kristen Howorko, BSN, RN, IBCLC
I am a Board Certified Lactation Consultant and Registered Nurse.
In 2005 I had my first child, and I struggled with breastfeeding. I assumed that my baby would be born knowing how to breastfeed. I was wrong. Breastfeeding was challenging.
I am forever grateful to the Lactation Consultant who helped me (who knew that was even a job?).
Now, I want to help you meet your infant feeding goals, whatever they may be. I am an inclusive practice that supports ALL infant feeding goals from breastfeeding/chest feeding, exclusive pumping, bottle feeding, and more.
I have spent the last four years working in the NICU, so I love preemies and understand the challenges of feeding. When I'm not helping moms, I like to spend my time reading, running, skiing, or doing yoga.
FEEDING GROUP: All are welcome to this support/community driven group.
-Let’s gather in community with our IBCLC, Kristen from @milkdup and breastfeed/chestfeed, bottle feed, talk about pumping, and connect with families.
Every Wednesday at 10am at our Lowry location.
