Hi Friend!

I’m Amanda,  A “re-TIRED” Labor & Delivery Nurse, turned private practice IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) serving families across the flinthills of Kansas. 

Redemptive feeding journeys fuel everything that I do here at TMMCO. As an IBCLC, I provide lactation and infant feeding support to the mother-baby dyad. Unlike OBGYNs with a special focus on mom and pediatricians with a special focus on baby, as your IBCLC I am dedicated to helping you have a positive and empowering feeding experience, with evidence-based resources and recommendations from actual lactation experts.

Kind Words

  • “To any momma new in their breastfeeding journey, consider an online lactation consultant. Amanda helped me in so many ways during those critical first weeks.”

    - ANSLEY

  • “If it wasn't for Amanda, my breastfeeding journey would have ended a long time ago. She gave me the confidence I needed while providing the best thing for my baby.”

    - ALEXA

  • “Amanda has been by my side since day one. Breastfeeding is tough work, tougher than you'd imagine before the journey ever begins (even with baby number two). Having her love, support, and knowledge brings me absolute comfort and confidence.”

    - SHANNON

Goodbye Google

→ How much alcohol is okay if I’m breastfeeding?
→ Do I need to ‘pump and dump’ with this medication?
→ Is my baby getting enough breastmilk?
→ Why is my baby not sleeping through the night?
→ Why is my baby so fussy? Is it something that I’m eating?
→ Is this baby poop normal?

The questions are endless and I never want misinformation to derail you in meeting your feeding goals. Schedule a telehealth consult for evidence-based recommendations from an infant feeding expert.

Our Flange Fairy™ Breast Pump Flange Sizing Kit is live on AMAZON! Can’t schedule a consult? No problem! Every purchase comes with an EXCLUSIVE flange sizing video tutorial from me, an IBCLC working with pumping parents everyday. Trash the sizing recommendations from pump companies who continue to send a size 12 shoe (flange) with every pump kit. Let’s bring a little more magic to your pumping experience.
