What a wonderful turnout for the dye-free Trunk or Treat at Thrive Family Chiropractic this year! 🎃

One of my absolute favorite parts of serving this community is getting to watch the little babies I once cared for grow up!

This sweet girl in the picture is someone I had the privilege of helping when she was just a baby FOUR years ago! 🥹

There is something so special about running into families years later, catching up, seeing how much their little ones have grown, and reminiscing about our time together during those early days of motherhood.

I truly love this community and the relationships that continue long after our breastfeeding journey together ends. What a blessing it is to be a small part of so many families’ stories!

A huge thank you to Thrive Family Chiropractic 515.635.1161 for putting together such an amazing dye-free Trunk or Treat! The turnout was incredible this year! 🍭

My heart is full!

Our community has an opportunity to come together and bless a family in need!

A dear friend of mine unexpectedly lost her sister, leaving behind a precious 7-week-old baby girl and an 8-year-old son with special needs. 💔

My friend and her family have stepped in to care for these sweet children, and she is incredibly pumping breast milk to help nourish her baby niece. What an incredible act of love!

We are looking for a Eufy hands-free breast pump and/or accessories to help support her during this time.

If anyone has a Eufy pump or accessories they would be willing to donate, we would be so incredibly grateful! 🙏🏻

📍 Drop-off: My Latch office

If my office door is closed, please feel free to leave your donation on the buffet table across from the bathrooms.

Thank you all for having such generous hearts and being willing to come alongside families when they need it most. 🤍

It truly takes a village, and I’m so thankful for ours!

BUILD YOUR VILLAGE 🎀

You're planning the baby shower, creating your registry, and preparing the nursery. But have you thought about who will be supporting YOU once your baby arrives?

The most valuable things you can prepare for postpartum won't always fit on a registry. (I do offer gift cards! 😉)

A trusted baby expert, infant bodywork educator, feeding and pumping expert, and lactation consultant; supportive healthcare providers; nourishing meals; helping hands; and people who will encourage you through both the beautiful and challenging moments of motherhood.

And yes, I’ll even help with the dishes or fold a load of laundry while I’m there! Because supporting you means caring for more than just your baby. 🙌

Your postpartum village should be built in preparation…before you need it.

At Latch, we believe every mother deserves personalized, expert care and someone in her corner from pregnancy through postpartum.

Because preparing for your baby also means preparing for yourself.

✨ Accepting applications for 2027 Signature Care families ✨
Apply as soon as you find out you're pregnant. Apply on website.

BUN IN THE OVEN? 🎀

Two pink lines. A thousand emotions. And a beautiful new chapter beginning!

At Latch, we believe in preparing, educating, and surrounding families with personalized 1:1 support from pregnancy through postpartum.

Our exclusive Signature Care experience allows us to walk alongside you, answer your questions, and help you feel confident before your little one is even in your arms.

✨ Just found out you're pregnant? Now is the time to apply!

We intentionally accept a limited number of families each month to provide exceptional, individualized care.

EXCLUSIVE CARE is intentionally limited 🎀

Signature Care was never designed to be high-volume care.

I accept a limited number of families based on due-date month so I can provide the ACCESS, GUIDANCE, and CONTINUITY that this level of care deserves.

We establish our relationship during pregnancy. I learn you, your goals, and your preferences and when baby arrives, you aren’t starting over with someone new.

You already have your baby expert at your side.

This is personalized care from the very beginning. Visits start at 20 weeks gestation, I can see you at the birthing center, baby led feeding, teething, all the way through to weaning!

🎀Start EARLY. Feel PREPARED. Stay CONNECTED.🎀

Limited Signature Care families accepted by due-date month.
