About Mary:
 |
I started off my journey in motherhood at a relatively young age, 21. I knew nothing about childbirth or breastfeeding and really only committed to breastfeeding beacuse others told me I could not. It was rough going in the beginning, but something changed my life. The experience of breastfeeding my son led to interest and gaining more knowledge. I jumped into my new passion with both feet! I became a La Leche League leader when my son was 14 months old because I wanted to help moms the way other moms had helped me. The longer I got to work with moms and babies the more my passion grew. I now work as a private practice lactation consultant in Wilmington NC as well as a licensed in-home child care provider specializing in care for breastfed and cloth-diapered babies. I look forward to being able to help as many moms as I can achieve their breastfeeding goals! |
