Nurturing Babbles
Nurturing every babble through lactation support
Nurturing Babbles
Hello There! I'm Lauren, a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) who specializes in identifying and treating swallowing disorders. Now offering lactation support to foster a positive breastfeeding relationship between mom and baby.
My story begins after the birth of my first son and realizing that breastfeeding was a lot more difficult than I ever imagined. Due to the lack of lactation support and knowledge, I was not able to meet my breastfeeding goals. When I became pregnant with my second son, I was determined to educate myself on all things lactation with the hopes to exclusively nurse him once he was born.
​
After successfully nursing my second child for over a year, I found a new passion for lactation support. Combining over 6 years experience as an SLP with my formal training as a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) paired with my personal experience of being a mother of two young boys, Nurturing Babbles was born.
​
Nurturing Babbles is dedicated to supporting mothers through their breastfeeding journey at any stage. Our mission is to provide personalized lactation counseling and educational resources to help mothers achieve their breastfeeding goals. We believe in empowering mothers with the knowledge and confidence to nurture their babies through breastfeeding.

I saw multiple lactation consultants in the hospital in the 3 days I was there and they all told me different things and left me very confused. I couldn’t wait to get home to have Lauren come and help me. Lauren was a constant source of support for my breastfeeding journey and truthfully helped me stick with it! She has such a passion for what she does and is so knowledgeable….I cannot thank her enough for being a source of support that made a world of difference for me and my baby girl! I will be recommending her to all of my mama friends! “

Nurturing Babbles helped set the tone and completely change my breastfeeding experience with my second baby. After a stressful feeding situation with my first child, Nurturing Babbles helped me to prepare and set a new, positive tone before my second child arrived with the amazing prenatal session. The information was invaluable and set everything on a better path. Additionally, post-birth, Lauren was available anytime for questions, and constantly checked in to make sure things were going well and offered helpful suggestions to make our breast feeding experience even better. I am so grateful for the awesome support!

I had the pleasure of working with Lauren, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She took the time to get to know me and my baby and to really understand our unique challenges and tailored her advice to suit my specific needs. Her expertise was evident, and she explained everything in a clear, comforting manner, which made the whole experience much less stressful. Not only did she offer practical tips and techniques that made a huge difference, but her warm, supportive nature made me feel confident and empowered throughout the process. If you’re looking for a lactation counselor who genuinely cares about your well-being and success, Lauren is the one to go to!
