About Mamas & Milk
 

 

On Your Side

Mamas & Milk was created by International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, Dawn Dickerson, to help parents navigate the uncertainty of pregnancy, birth, infant feeding, and parenthood. Combining knowledge and quality information with the art and wisdom of ages, we support you where you are today. We recognize the nuances and variations of individual humans. We know what is normal, what is common, and the difference between them. We have been there and we are on your side.

Judgement-Free Support

Dawn started Mamas & Milk in an effort to help support families on their journeys through parenthood. What she needed most was a safe and judgement-free space to laugh, cry, learn, reflect, and grow. She wanted to make sure others knew they were not alone. She knew that while humans love being unique, they are also creatures that are comforted by knowing that their experience is shared. And humans crave connection.

Anti-racism and Inclusion

Mamas & Milk is an actively practicing anti-racist and inclusion-focused company. We work to educate ourselves on the systemic discrepancies that affect BIPOC and LGBTQ+ families and communities, especially in relation to pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and feeding their babies. We know this journey of unlearning takes continuous work. We are committed to that process. We appreciate and listen to feedback on when we can do better.

Solution Focused

At Mamas & Milk, we infuse the philosophy of Birthing From Within into our interactions with parents through infant feeding help and support, yoga classes, and birth story listening. No matter where you are on your journey, we support you without judgement and without an attachment to outcome.
