A Safe Space for Your Lactation and Nutritional Needs
Welcome to The Elist Method.
With over 15 years of experience and more than two decades of education, I am committed to offering compassionate evidence-based lactation and nutritional care, tailored to the unique needs and goals of each individual.
It is my mission to promote successful breastfeeding experiences and help individuals make informed decisions about their nutrition, health, and lifestyle.
I created The Elist Method to provide comprehensive lactation and nutritional services in a nurturing and inclusive environment where lactating individuals and their families feel heard, understood, and supported.
From Successful Breastfeeding to Informed
Choices in Nutrition, Your Journey Starts Here.
About The Method
Having worked with new and expectant mothers for over 18 years, I witnessed many women who felt their prenatal and postpartum struggles were overlooked or downplayed, and whose breastfeeding journeys were unsuccessful due to the one-size-fits-all in-hospital lactation services. In 2020, after receiving my International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) certification, I decided to start the method based on my commitment to delivering a holistic and all-encompassing approach that takes into account the intricate relationship between nutrition and lactation.
One of the core foundations of The Elist Method is that every body is different. By implementing an accompaniment approach, I meet the unique needs of both lactating individuals and their infants with comprehensive support throughout every phase of the lactation journey: from prenatal education to postpartum care and eventual weaning process.
