Lactation & Infant Feeding Support

Gentle, Experienced Care

Right Here with Our Midwives

Two women sitting on a dark blue upholstered couch, engaged i. One is facing away, wearing a dark blue shirt with a beige knit piece draped over her shoulder, while the other is smiling, wearing a patterned jacket over a white shirt. There is a light purple tumbler with a straw on a small round tray table next to the couch. The room has large windows, a wooden table with books and a laptop, and a blue-carved cabinet in the background.

NCBC’s very own Director of Midwifery, Cat Palmer, provides in-office lactation and infant feeding consultations for anyone seeking support.
