On a very basic level Nourishing Hands is a playful nutritionist/lactation consultant spin on the phrase “to lend a helping hand”. However on a deeper level, hands are symbolic of strength, connection, protection, care, and creation. I see my hands as a tool to help impart these gifts on every family I come in contact with. I look forward to working with you and nourishing your family!

Yes, I primarily serve families in Orange County, CA. But I also offer travel fees for families outside the surrounding area and virtual consultations for certain services, such as nutrition and lactation guidance, if you’re outside the area.

My approach is holistic, deeply personal, and backed by a diverse professional background. As an IBCLC and Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), I bring years of experience from both hospital settings and one-on-one care, allowing me to address a wide range of needs with expertise and empathy. As a mom myself, I understand the real challenges of this journey, and I combine my professional knowledge with personal experience to provide compassionate, tailored care that supports you physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Yes, I offer overnight postpartum doula care to help you get the rest you need. During these hours, I can care for your baby, assist with feedings, and provide lactation support as needed.

This is on a limited availability so booking early is often required.

 For lactation consultations I am contracted with a variety insurance providers. Click here to check your benefits https://go.lactationnetwork.com/NourishingHandsLLC. 

In many instances postpartum doula services and nutrition counseling can be paid for using HSA/FSA benefits. I am happy to provide an invoice that can be submitted for potential reimbursement.
