EVE BOWEN – MOERAN, IBCLC, Owner
I have 40 years of experience working with mothers and babies from birth to breastfeeding. Many of my clients describe me as a warm, friendly, kind, person who has the appropriate skills to teach you everything you need to know about the life changing event of childbirth and breastfeeding. I have been in private practice for 7 years as an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant assisting many mothers and babies with the joys and sometimes the challenges of breastfeeding. Due to inexperience or lack of information many new mothers are faced with problems at the onset of motherhood. I have many clients who were referred to us when their baby had significant weight loss, insufficient breast milk transfer, or the baby was not able to latch to the breast due to nipple structure. These parents could absolutely reassure you I have the patience and skill to "get the job done" along with their patience and dedicated efforts as parents.
