In 1994, her passion for teaching new mothers about breastfeeding led her to obtain certification as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).

Linda's knowledge, talents, and her connection to people help her meet the needs of each human being.  

Linda has had the privilege to mentor aspiring IBCLC's who have gone on to become IBCLC after meeting the required hours and classes to sit for the IBCLC exam.

Lauren Harrell - Intern

RN, BSN, CLC

Hi! I'm Lauren. I am a mother to three children. I am a Pediatric Nurse, Certified Lactation Counselor, and IBCLC intern. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing. I have worked for several years in Pediatric Emergency Medicine and Pediatric Critical Care. I completed the Lactation Counselor Training Course through The Healthy Children Project and have completed hundreds of hours helping mothers breastfeed. Mothers and children have always had a special place in my heart. My personal breastfeeding journeys and experiences as a nurse have led me to be passionate about helping other mothers have an amazing breastfeeding experience. I look forward to helping you achieve your breastfeeding goals!
