After experiencing a multitude of troubles breastfeeding her first child, Sarah found a passion for helping others to successfully breastfeed. Due to already having a BS degree in Biochemistry, she already had the pre-requisites needed to register for the pathway 2 lactation program through UC San Diego, which consists of two semesters as a full time student. Sarah obtained her clinical hours through Cape Fear Valley Medical Center and sat for her IBCLC less than a year later! She quickly decided that opening a private practice was what she desired for the community and became the first full time private practice IBCLC in Fayetteville.
Working in the community, as well as experiencing with her second child, she realized the lack of resources for tongue and lip tied babies, Sarah worked with Village Family Dental to create the first three pillar tongue tie clinic in North Carolina. As the attending IBCLC for this program, and now the program’s frenectomy liaison, Sarah has worked with thousands of tongue tied people - ages ranging from newborn to senior citizen - to assist them in achieving optimal health and wellness.
Sarah’s latest endeavor includes supporting families with cleft affected babies. Her third child, born in 2018, was born with a unilateral complete cleft lip, alveolus, and palate. She has had to exclusively pump for her baby and understands the struggles that so many families face when there are latch difficulties or craniofacial differences. Sarah offers virtual support for cleft families across the nation.
Having three children with various breastfeeding issues turned Sarah into the well-rounded lactation consultant that she is today. She is constantly seeking more continuing education to further her specialties to better assist families with various breastfeeding troubles. With thousands of hours of continuing education under her belt, you could certainly say she has a love for learning! Sarah has found that offering home visits within the community allows her to better assess a family’s breastfeeding story and she pours her heart and soul into every family she meets. She looks forward to supporting you and your family in your breastfeeding journey, too!
