Eden is currently offering virtual and in-person consultations in Greater Montreal. She is not offering consultations in New York City at this time.
Eden is committed to helping all families meet their breastfeeding goals.

As a lactation consultant, Eden can help when difficulties arise during this learning process, as well as any time over the duration of the breastfeeding relationship.
The IBCLC credential is the highest standard for breastfeeding specialists worldwide. An IBCLC adheres to a code of professional conduct and follows guidelines established by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the World Health Organization.
