Meet Natalie Ford, RPN, IBCLC
Registered Practical Nurse & International Board Certified Lactation Consultant
We are proud to welcome Natalie Ford to our team as our Lactation Consultant.
Natalie is a Registered Practical Nurse (RPN) with over 25 years of nursing experience and is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). For more than two decades, she has dedicated her career to caring for women, newborns and families through hospital programs, obstetrical offices and outpatient clinics.
Natalie’s approach to lactation care is evidence-based, compassionate and individualized. She understands that every family, baby and feeding journey is different. Her goal is to provide parents with the knowledge, support and confidence they need to make informed decisions that work best for their family—whether that means breastfeeding, chest-feeding, pumping, combination feeding or breastmilk feeding.
With a strong background in maternal and newborn health, Natalie provides impartial, supportive care without judgment, helping families navigate common feeding challenges and feel confident throughout their journey.
At Woodlawn Kids Dental, we believe supporting a child’s health begins long before their first dental visit. We are excited to offer families access to a knowledgeable and experienced lactation professional as part of our commitment to caring for the whole family.
Welcome, Natalie! We are so happy to have you as part of our team. ❤️
