About Me

Hi, my name is Nichelle Clark and I am an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), CBS (Certified Breastfeeding Specialist), and Postpartum Doula. I came to fall in love with lactation after the birth of my son, my SonShine. After years of trying and 2 losses, my husband and I would finally conceive our Rainbow Baby. As a first generation breastfeeder, breastfeeding was all new to me. I decided before he was born, at 4 months pregnant, that I was going to exclusively pump. And so I did. In 2021, I would give birth to our second Rainbow and spawn another breastfeeding journey.

During this time, I began to research everything breastfeeding and all things pumping. I obtained my Certified Breastfeeding Specialist certification in 2018 and my IBCLC certification in 2020.

I am a community lactivist, working with organizations like #757Breastfeeds, the Virginia Breastfeeding Coalition, USLCA (United States Lactation Consultant Association), and Black Breastfeeding 365.

I am here to help you navigate and avoid some of the breastfeeding/chestfeeding pitfalls or overcome them should they arise. By listening to your concerns and collaborating with you, I can help you meet or exceed your personal breastfeeding goals. Because every family is different, I offer judgement free guidance, advice, and assessment on the best attainable way to meet your family’s specific needs. Contact me to discuss how I can help serve you and your family.
