Lactation consultant and newborn nurse

“Fed is the floor, not the goal. My job is to find out what is in the way.”

About

Renata runs the one-hour lactation consults and the newborn weight-check clinic. She does the weighted feeds, sizes the flanges, and builds the pumping schedules that actually survive a return to work.

She answers the newborn nurse line for our families in a baby's first 30 days, and she has talked a great many parents down off a 3am ledge.
