ABOUT TIFFANY
At Tree of Life Feeding, my mission is to provide personalized support and guidance to families during the various stages of the feeding journey. I have been a pediatric speech-language pathologist since 2014. I have spent 8 of those years working in the pediatric medical setting with focus working with infants and children with various feeding and swallowing difficulties.
In 2021, I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant to provide families with comprehensive and evidence-based breastfeeding and lactation support to meet their goals. I started Tree of Life Feeding in order to serve families like yours and give you the tools necessary to begin a healthy and happy relationship with all things feeding.
