Just your friendly neighborhood milk fairy 🧚‍♀️
Making sure the milk flows and the magic grows. 💕✨

At Chattanooga Lactation, we know that breastfeeding isn’t always easy — but with the right support (and maybe a little fairy dust), it can feel magical again. 💫

🌿 Meet the 'A’ Team at Chattanooga Lactation! 🌿

✨ Ashley – Founder, RN, IBCLC
With 17 years of experience in postpartum, NICU, and lactation care, Ashley brings a holistic, evidence-based approach to breastfeeding support. As a CLC and IBCLC with 11 years in lactation, she focuses on finding root causes—not just treating symptoms. Her specialties include low milk supply, bottle refusals, fl**ge fitting, and pre/post-frenotomy support (tongue tie & oral function). Ashley’s goal is to truly listen and create care plans tailored to each family’s unique needs.

✨ Autumn – IBCLC
A proud IBCLC with 5 years of experience, Autumn’s journey began with her own breastfeeding struggles, which gave her both deep empathy and a passion for helping others. She supports families through latch challenges, supply concerns, tongue tie support and reassurance when things feel hard. Autumn also feels called to support the mental and emotional side of lactation, knowing how closely feeding and mental health are connected. Her heart is in walking alongside parents so they feel confident and supported every step of the way.

✨ Audrey – RN, IBCLC
With 10 years as an RN and 8 years in postpartum care, Audrey brings both expertise and compassion to her role as an IBCLC. Inspired by the amazing lactation support she received while nursing her first child, and having navigated breastfeeding with all three of her own children, she understands the challenges families face firsthand. Audrey is dedicated to helping parents feel confident whether they’re just starting out or facing new hurdles later on.

💛 At Chattanooga Lactation, our team is here to listen, support, and empower you through every stage of your feeding journey.

Ashley Lucas, RN, IBCLC Lactation Consultant Serving the Greater Chattanooga Area.

I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a Registered Nurse living in Chattanooga, TN. I received my educational training at Southern Adventist University and completed the Nursing program in 2008. Clinical training involved working in postpartum and NICU. The last 5 years have been in the lactation department at a local Hospital. I am a wife and a mother of two beautiful children. Both children taught me a lot about how to become a mother and breastfeeding. Breastfeeding was not easy for me. Lots of tears, love, frustration, compassion, and determination. One of my most challenging nights with my son was when I couldn’t get him to feed. I was so exhausted that I couldn’t think clearly of what to do. I sat there rocking my baby crying wishing I had lactation support. That was the night I decided that I would work very hard at breastfeeding, learn everything I could, and one day have a private practice supporting families. I am happy to announce that this day has finally come. March 4th, 2020 I become the proud owner of Chattanooga Lactation, LLC.

Coming home with a new baby can be exhausting and overwhelming, especially if you are having any breastfeeding difficulties. It’s nice to have the hospital staff help with latching but once you get home, your on your own. That is where I come in. I provide evidence based in-home lactation support and consulting with a flexible scheduling to meet your needs. I am here to support you every step of the way judgment free! Look forward to working with you!

I am now accepting BCBS PPO, Anthem PPO, Cigna PPO, some United Health care. For more information about insurance coverage, out of network pay, sliding scales or to schedule an appointment see contact information below.
