Meet Stephanie Avienu, BS, IBCLC — We’re so lucky to have her expertise and compassion at Baby Café!

Stephanie’s journey to lactation support began with the birth of her first child in 2007. She graduated from Union Institute and University in 2015 with a Master’s certificate in Health Education and Promotion and became an IBCLC in 2016.

She loves being able to share her knowledge and support with breastfeeding families and work towards building breastfeeding as the cultural norm and as the best start for babies and families.
