All of our employees have extensive professional and personal experience in breastfeeding. We pride ourselves on having staff who are knowledgeable and enjoy working with families. MilkWorks was developed as a family friendly employer; as a result, none of our employees work full-time. This allows us to fulfill our vital roles within our own families. It is our goal to serve you in a compassionate, yet medically sound manner. We strive to offer you the best care that we can, and we welcome your feedback. Please do not hesitate to tell us if there is something that you liked, or did not like, about our services. -------------------------- MIlkWorks' Lactation Consultants are all certified through the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE).

She credits her own mother and La Leche League with helping her overcome breastfeeding difficulties with her first child.

Married to an artist, Suzy loves to cook and may even be found running when she has a few moments to herself.
