My Mission

At Milky Way, my mission is to provide expert lactation and sleep consulting services with a compassionate, personalized touch. I'm here to help new parents navigate the early stages of parenthood—whether you're looking for support with breastfeeding or sleep coaching—by offering guidance that’s not only informed by expertise but also grounded in empathy. I believe in the power of community and that every parent deserves to feel supported and understood.

Who I Am

Milky Way was founded by me, Kathryn, a Registered Nurse, IBCLC (qualifying), and mom of two breastfed babies. I know firsthand the challenges and joys of parenthood, and I'm deeply passionate about making sure parents have the support they need during these formative years. As a mom, I've experienced the sleepless nights, the moments of doubt, and the triumphs of successful breastfeeding, which makes my approach personal and deeply empathetic.

I am also a proud member of the East End Toronto community, where I've found a true sense of connection and support. I believe that building your village—whether through family, friends, or local resources—is essential to navigating parenthood with confidence. My mission is to create that same sense of belonging and support for families I work with, helping you feel connected, informed, and empowered.

What Sets Me Apart

What makes Milky Way different is my commitment to personalized care and community. My approach blends my professional expertise with her understanding of the emotional and practical needs of new parents. I take the time to listen, offering customized solutions that respect your unique situation. I value ongoing support and strive to be there for you as you build the confidence to face the challenges of parenthood.

Living in the vibrant East End of Toronto, I know the importance of connecting with others and having a supportive network. I bring this sense of community into my work, helping you feel like part of a larger village of parents who understand what you’re going through.

My Values

• Community: I believe that parenthood is not a journey to walk alone. Whether you’re in the East End or beyond, I'm here to create a sense of belonging, where you feel supported and connected.

• Expert Care: With a nursing background and certification in lactation and sleep consulting, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to every family I work with.

• Empowerment: I believe that informed parents are confident parents. I'll work with you to help you feel empowered to make the best choices for your family.
