About Susan

With over 22 years of experience helping families feed babies, I am ready to help you with your breastfeeding goals. I am the mother of three children and originally from Los Angeles, California, having moved to NY in 1987 to attend graduate school. I then relocated in West Hartford, CT, where I became La Leche League Leader and in 2002, I became an IBCLC -- an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant.

I am available to help with all your breastfeeding needs whether it is before your baby is born or afterwards. I welcome all family types and feeding preferences. For more information about costs, please read my Fees & Insurance page.

While I am our office's principal IBCLC, when you call you will likely speak with Alexis. She may provide basic breastfeeding information as well as explain and book appointments. You may also speak with Lauren, my intern who is soon to be an IBCLC. Both Lauren and Alexis will be able to help you with your breastfeeding questions until you can be seen for a consult.
