Hi, I'm Amanda!
Wife • Mom • Lolli • Nurse • Lactation Consultant • Business Owner
My passion is pediatrics. Immediately after graduating from the University of Louisville with my MSN, I began working in a pediatric office. It didn’t take me long to realize just how many new mothers and newborn babies needed lactation support. After struggling to nurse two babies myself, and seeing first hand so many families struggling to find resources, I realized I needed to further my training and skills in lactation.
I’ve always known pediatrics would be my calling, but I had no idea when I started this journey in healthcare that I could feel so passionately about those tiny newborn babies and lactation.
By combining my experiences as an APRN, utilizing many of the guidelines from the AAP, and my continued growth as an IBCLC, I started to see wonderful results with families struggling with lactation. A combination of my clinical experience, as well as the huge demand for lactation support, ultimately gave me the confidence to make a career change. So, in 2018 I founded Baby Eyes Lactation, LLC.
If you’re struggling on your breastfeeding journey, I get it. I’ve been there. Breastfeeding doesn’t come naturally for everyone. My goal is to support you and your family through any feeding obstacles, and help make this the enjoyable and rewarding experience that I know it can be!
When I'm Out of Office...
Anyone close to me knows that my family is my world! My husband and I are blessed with three beautiful girls and one energetic grandchild that keeps us on our toes! If we’re not on vacation to Disney World, you can find us at a local horse show or UofL game.
