Understanding Lactation Support Options
In this conversation, Amy Volk, a registered nurse and lactation consultant, discusses the various types of lactation providers, their qualifications, and the importance of seeking support both prenatally and postnatally. She emphasizes the need for parents to recognize signs that may indicate the need for lactation support and the role of insurance in accessing these services. The discussion also highlights the importance of co-care among different healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive support for breastfeeding families.
Amie Volk, MSN, RN, IBCLC (she/her/hers) is a registered nurse with six years of pediatric and newborn experience. Her first job as a nurse was in labor, delivery, and postpartum. This job is what really piqued her interest in supporting breastfeeding and chest feeding families. She has worked at a pediatric clinic for the past three years where she has particularly enjoyed helping new families transition into their role as parents. Amie completed her lactation specific education and clinical hours through University of California at San Diego’s Pathway 2 Program.
She is passionate about educating and empowering parents in their feeding journey and is interested in seeking further education and experience in perinatal mental health, bottle refusal, and exclusive pumping. Amie strives to provide inclusive, empathetic, and evidence-based care to all families, no matter what their feeding journey looks like.
Amie is available for home visits in Central and North Austin, office visits in North and South Austin, and virtual visits worldwide.
