About Milky Way

Hi there! 

I’m Kathryn, a mom of two, a Registered Nurse and a Certified Lactation Counselor with a passion for supporting families through the unique journey of breastfeeding. As a fellow parent, I know how overwhelming and beautiful this chapter can be, and I'm here to help make it a little bit easier. I like to keep things real—because let’s face it, parenting isn’t always as perfect as the Instagram pictures make it seem. I’m in the trenches right alongside you, and I’m here to offer support, guidance, and a listening ear when you need it most.

My interest in lactation consulting started when I was navigating the world of tongue ties with my son. It was overwhelming trying to figure out what was going on and how to deal with it all at once. That experience was eye-opening for me, and it sparked a deep desire to help others who are facing similar struggles. I want to make sure that no one has to go through it feeling confused or isolated. Sharing my own experiences helps me connect with families on a personal level, because I truly believe breastfeeding is such an intimate, unique experience that deserves all the support in the world. I’m not just here to give advice—I’m here to listen, to chat, and to help you feel seen and heard as you navigate this amazing, sometimes challenging time.

Beyond lactation consulting, I’m deeply passionate about climate advocacy and protecting our planet for future generations. As a parent, it’s important to me to do what I can for the environment, so I try to weave sustainability into my personal and professional life. I also volunteer on the board of directors for an EarlyON Child Centre in the east end, because I believe in the power of community and connection for families. The village we create for one another is so important as we raise our little ones.

I’d love to connect with you, hear your story, and help however I can. You’re not alone on this journey, and I’m excited to be a part of it with you.
