Baby Pavilion has partnered with Nurturing Lactation and Wendy McHale to
provide Lactation Consulting to our patients.
Wendy McHale is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant
(IBCLC) and provides professional breastfeeding support to help mothers

Breastfeeding and human milk are the physiological norm for mothers and
babies. For some, breastfeeding comes easily. For most mothers and
babies, however, there are some difficulties to overcome along the way.
Many mothers find that seeking professional help from an International

in their breastfeeding experience.
