Your Care Team
Allison Alexander, LPN, IBCLC
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant
Allison Alexander (she/her) is a nurse, Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), wife, and mother of two living and working on indigenous land in Michigan, USA. After struggling to breastfeed her first child, she felt the depression and isolation that comes with needing help but not knowing where to turn. While providing care and education in a pediatric office setting, she also saw the struggles of parents who came in having difficulty feeding their babies and the lack of compassionate, evidence-based support they received.
Some found ways to make it work, but many more gave up on their goals. Convinced there had to be a better way, Allison began her journey to become an IBCLC to make sure that every family had the support they needed to be successful, the support she wished she’d had as a new parent. She has been working with families since 2011 and has helped countless parents feel confident and successful. She went on to breastfeed her second child into toddlerhood. She specializes in oral motor function, milk supply concerns, and slow weight gain.
Kaitlyn Sagritalo, BA, IBCLC
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant
Kaitlyn Sagritalo (she/her) became a first-time mom in 2018. In her breastfeeding journey with her son, they dealt with severe skin infections, rare food allergies, and difficulty finding providers that knew how to help. Thanks to her prenatal education and amazing support from a local LC, she was able to successfully breastfeed into toddlerhood (5+ years strong!).
She knew her story of adequate education and support were unfortunately rare, so she decided to start her journey towards becoming an IBCLC. Kaitlyn has worked in healthcare for over 10 years and delved into lactation in 2019. Kaitlyn has been an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant since 2022. She specializes in oral motor function, low milk supply, and especially loves working with preemies.
