About Katie

I'm so glad you are here. I'm here to help you, and I hope you'll let me be part of your journey. I'm Katie Bevan, a bachelor's prepared registered nurse and international board-certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) with 13 years of experience supporting breastfeeding families. I am a mom of two young girls, and I was a pediatric nurse and lactation consultant before I became a mother. I'll just say that having my own children is humbling, and I too struggled with breastfeeding them, one of whom was born prematurely (pictured). I continue to learn from these little humans every day, and you will learn from yours too! I want to be here to help moms build confidence that can sometimes be hard to find in those early days and long nights during the first year parenting.

Starting my nursing career in the Navy and venturing to where I am now, I have extensive experience with the pre and postnatal period, including outpatient women's health, inpatient NICU, inpatient postpartum, outpatient pediatrics, WIC, and home visiting. I am passionate about moms and babies, and love hearing everyone's unique stories and backgrounds. Over my years of experience, I've learned to listen to the wants and  needs of families so I can  help guide you in setting realistic feeding goals that feel right for you and your family.

​

When I'm not with moms and babies, I love spending time with my own family at the beaches in Florida, and when time allows, traveling to the mountains where we can hike and ski!
