Hi, I’m Nadine, and my path to becoming a breastfeeding and lactation counselor has been a journey shaped by personal challenges, powerful discoveries, and a deep commitment to helping moms like you feel empowered and supported.

Originally from Germany, I moved to Canada with my husband in 2020 to live a more self-sufficient and intentional life, complete with rabbits, chickens, solar power, and our two poodles. In August 2022, our world brightened even more with the arrival of our daughter, who we’re raising with a needs-oriented approach that fills our days with love and fulfillment.

But my calling to support moms in their breastfeeding journeys goes back to my own early years. My parents, overwhelmed and unsure, decided against breastfeeding—my mother was a smoker, which led them to believe formula would be best. The decision led to severe health complications, including a life-threatening cow’s milk allergy that brought financial stress and emotional strain.

Today, my approach to breastfeeding support is holistic and deeply personalized. This holistic approach also led me to pursue specialized international training in oral restrictions, making me an expert in addressing challenges like tongue ties. Together, we work to uncover the root causes of any breastfeeding challenges you’re facing, finding solutions that benefit not only you but your whole family. I provide guidance on natural remedies, nutritional insights based on traditional principles like those of Weston A. Price, supplementation and practical support that fits seamlessly into your busy life.

Through my experience and the community I found, I became keenly aware of the struggles many moms face in breastfeeding and the gaps in support. This led me to train as a breastfeeding & lactation counselor, to be the support I wished had been there for my own mother and countless others.

Breastfeeding is a powerful gift we can give our children, one that has lifelong benefits for them and our society. I’m here to walk this path with you, sharing knowledge, encouragement, and support as you explore the incredible benefits of breastfeeding and holistic family health.
