Hi, I’m Liz

I’m an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and I love helping parents feed their babies! Breastfeeding is more than just a latch, and I’d love to help you feed your baby in a way that works for you! I’m so glad you’re here!

  • Liz is wonderful! I've had struggles breastfeeding my newborn from the beginning and Liz listened, addressed my concerns, and showed me solutions. She asked what my goals were and we developed a plan to accomplish them.

  • Liz was always very responsive and informative.

    She's professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. If you are having issues breastfeeding, contact Liz (Beyond the Latch). She will help you through it, I promise!

  • Liz came to my home and did a full assessment.  She was really hands on and gave me so many helpful tips and suggestions.

  • If it weren't for Liz, I would have quit really early on! Liz is knowledgeable and cares about the families she serves. I would highly recommend her!

  • Liz is an amazing resource for breastfeeding! She has helped me navigate through repeated cases of mastitis and given me resources and support that multiple doctors and lactation consultants at Kaiser have not. She listens to your goals and helps you achieve them by giving you natural solutions (outside of simply pushing antibiotics like doctors), and doing research to find answers.

Breastfeeding is Natural, but it doesn't always come Naturally

Any time we start something new there is always a "learning curve", breastfeeding is no different.  Most people have never seen someone else breastfeed when they embark on breastfeeding themselves!  Normalizing breastfeeding, and having support on the breastfeeding journey is essential for women to have a successful and enjoyable breastfeeding experience. I want all women to feel that they CAN breastfeed and know that they have the support to meet their goals!

My mission is to provide the guidance, tools, and support that families need to achieve their breastfeeding goals, and Beyond!
I offer in-home and virtual pre/postnatal private consults for personalized breastfeeding help, as well as classes focusing on breastfeeding, returning to work, and starting solids.

Some insurance accepted, call or message to ask about your coverage!
