Amanda Ho, RN, BScN, IBCLC

MEET OUR IBCLC

Welcome! I'm Amanda, a Registered Nurse and board certified Lactation Consultant, dedicated to supporting new parents on their journey through parenthood. With a strong background in neonatal intensive care nursing, I bring years of experience and scientific knowledge to help you navigate the challenges that arise in the early stages of your baby's life.

​

What fuels my passion is the opportunity to provide compassionate support to overwhelmed and stressed parents, particularly those facing mental health challenges. Having worked closely with families in the NICU, I witnessed the profound impact of breastfeeding and developed a special interest in this area.

My approach is rooted in nurturing care and empowerment. I strive to help you uncover the feeding plan that aligns with your family's unique needs while considering the bigger picture of your physical and mental well-being.

Breastfeeding is not solely about latch mechanics; it encompasses the holistic health of both you and your baby.

I specialize in supporting moms with preterm babies, infants with complex medical conditions, and those who have faced mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, or a history of sexual assault. Your journey is unique, and I am here to offer guidance and understanding every step of the way.

​

Beyond my professional endeavors, I find solace in creative outlets like painting, writing poetry, and immersing myself in nature through hikes and travels. Moreover, I am deeply committed to ending Violence Against Women. By allocating a portion of Flowerbud's profits, I actively contribute to organizations supporting abused women, children, and survivors.

I am honored to be a part of your journey, and my aim is to empower you with the knowledge and tools needed to create a brighter, more fulfilling future for your family. Let's embark on this transformative experience together!
