About Me

​​

Hi, I’m Gloria. I’m a Registered Nurse with over 17 years of experience caring for newborns and their families. Taking care of babies and supporting new moms has always been the part of nursing I’ve loved most.

​

I chose to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) because I wanted more time with moms and babies. In the hospital, things move quickly. I wanted the chance to slow down, sit with families, answer questions, and really help them feel confident.  That's what inspired me to build Sweet Start Lactation. 

​

I believe feeding support should feel calm, encouraging, and never judgmental. Every family is different. My role is to meet you where you are and help you reach your goals in a way that feels right for you.

​

Outside of work, I’m a wife and a soccer mom of three. Most of my time is spent at the soccer field, working out, or cheering on Austin FC. I absolutely love to read and am always ready to swap book recommendations!

​

I know how overwhelming the newborn stage can feel. You don’t have to figure it out alone. I’d love to help you and your baby along the way.
