Hi! I’m Estelle, a perinatal registered nurse (RN) and Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with a passion for supporting parents and babies on their breastfeeding journey. I provide in-home services in the Lake Tahoe area (CA and NV) and virtual consultations worldwide. Every family’s story is unique, and I’m dedicated to offering personalized care tailored to your needs and goals.

Prepare for breastfeeding success!
As a labor and delivery/postpartum nurse and IBCLC, I provide prenatal breastfeeding education for informed decisions, birth plans, and goal-setting.
Together, we navigate your unique journey, covering breastfeeding basics, personalized discussions, and hand expression techniques. Whether it's your first pregnancy or not, my goal is to empower you with the right information for a successful breastfeeding experience.

Birth & Beyond
Welcoming your baby!
Whether in-person or online, I'm here to address your questions and provide personalized care. Acknowledging the distinct challenges of the early postpartum period, I assess, plan, and offer compassionate support to help you achieve your breastfeeding goals. After our visit, you'll receive a detailed care plan for reference. I'm always just an email away, and for additional support, follow-up appointments are tailored to guide you step by step.
