Why LILac?

We are a collaborative team of an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, bringing together two essential areas of expertise to support families throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and infant feeding.

Our unique combination of lactation and nutrition expertise allows us to support the whole feeding journey. This integrated approach helps families feel informed, supported, and confident every step of the way.

Katie, a mother of two and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), specializes in practical, compassionate support for common breastfeeding challenges, pumping, milk supply concerns, and early newborn feeding. She understands that feeding looks different for every family and provides individualized guidance to help parents meet their goals with confidence.

Maryrose is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) specializing in prenatal and postpartum nutrition. She helps families optimize nutrition during pregnancy, support postpartum recovery, address common nutrition-related concerns, and ensure both parent and baby receive the nutrients needed for healthy growth and development.

Together, we provide comprehensive, family-centered care that recognizes the unique relationship between nutrition and infant feeding. Our goal is to empower parents with practical tools, personalized guidance, and evidence-based support so they can feel confident, nourished, and supported through every stage of their journey.
