  Breastfeeding is an art                              As with any art

all the pieces must come together

          to form a masterpiece.  

​

  To breastfeed successfully, you need more

           than a breast and a hungry baby.  

Breastfeeding requires a delicate coordination of the cranial bones, nervous system, muscular and skeletal system.  

 

Dr. Eileen works to ensure that this coordination occurs, through specific and gentle care.

​

In addition to her board training, Dr. Eileen has had additional training in caring for the breastfeeding dyad.  Dr. Eileen has built collaborative relationships with local pediatricians, ENT's, dentists and lactation specialists to best address the needs of the breast feeding baby.
