Meet the team
The people you’ll actually see.
17 of us, across Ontario. Read a little about whoever sounds right and book with them directly, or answer a few questions and let us point you at somebody.
Why we are spread across a province
IBCLC support anywhere in Ontario.
We put the effort where the gap is: rural and underserved communities, and families kept from lactation care by money or distance. A virtual visit reaches everyone sooner, which is why it is the appointment we offer first wherever you live.
Many mothers felt the virtual consultation gave them the same experience as an in-person visit.
From peer-reviewed research into OHIP-covered virtual lactation consultation, in which up to 96% of the 177 parents surveyed appreciated their consultant's knowledge, experience, patience and kindness. The study was carried out at a previous clinic and co-authored by Dr. Anubha Kumar, IBCLC, Research Director at the Ontario Breastfeeding Clinic. Many of the IBCLCs and physicians in it now practice here.
The team
Book with whoever sounds right.
17 of us. 10 are International Board Certified Lactation Consultants you can book directly: open whoever sounds right, read a little, and book from their own page. Our physicians are met through the appointment you book rather than separately.

Rather not choose?
Tell us what is going on and where you are, and we will offer you what is actually available near you. Choosing a person is lovely when you have the energy for it and unnecessary when you do not.
