Does your baby nurse for hours? Have you been told that your milk does not nourish him enough? Are you worried about going back to work and thinking you have to wean? Does baby wake you every hour to nurse? are you breastfeeding in pain? do you hear contradictory information about breastfeeding? Do you want to wean your toddler?

I am an IBCLC trained with Possums -(Dr Pam Douglas) on neuroprotective developmental care

I offer information and support services on the themes of breastfeeding, baby sleep and parenting, via Telehealth​, face-to-face in Lyon (at the Lyon 9 Vaise office or at home) or online programs.

I let you discover my services

Hope to meet you!

Témoignages

"Just a little email to tell you that E. is doing well, continues to grow well and gain weight, to suckle well too, spacing out a few times during the night.

It's going pretty well and we found each other well, he and I in terms of breastfeeding.

So it's been a while since I wanted to write to you to really thank you for your help, your advice, your availability, your encouragement and your support. So I'm taking advantage of a night feeding to take the time to do it: ) 

All of this was extremely valuable to me and completely contributed to the success of the establishment of breastfeeding.

Thanks again,"M. & E. (January 2020 visit)

International Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC ) in Lyon and through telehealth

My name is Elise Armoiry, I am the mother of 3 children  (including twins) all of them breastfed.

With twins, carrying in a sling was the solution to calm one baby while taking care of the second, to move around easily, to avoid having to take the  double stroller...so I became a babywearing consultant in 2014.

Passionate about breastfeeding,  I have been a volunteer with a breastfeeding support association since 2016, and I took the IBCLC exam in 2019.

​I also write articles around  breastfeeding information (see the Publications page)

From 2014 to 2022, I accompanied more than 1000 families in their first steps to discover their babies, listening and providing information on the subject of breastfeeding,  sleep, crying,  attachment...

Une consultante en lactation IBCLC, C'est quoi? 

La certification IBCLC est reconnue comme l'excellence en matière de soutien à l'allaitement. Elle exige une formation en santé, entre 500 et 1000 heures de pratique clinique, une formation spécifique en lactation humaine, ainsi que des qualités d'écoute et d'empathie. Les consultantes en lactation adhèrent à un code de déontologie, favorisant la promotion de l'allaitement maternel et informant les familles de toutes les options possibles. Cette certification est revalidée tous les 5 ans, gage de qualité et de mise à jour des connaissances.

An IBCLC lactation consultant is a breastfeeding specialist who has passed international certification valid for 5 years (recertification by training points every 5 years).

To obtain this certification, you need to have:

-a background in health and the knowledge needed to keep abreast of scientific developments 

-between 500 and 1000 hours of clinical practice, and

-specific training in human lactation,

- good listening skills and empathy.

Lactation consultants are bound by a code of ethics. 

They help to promote breastfeeding and inform families of all the options available, so that they can make an informed choice. 

This certification is considered to represent excellence in breastfeeding support.

 

In France, other qualifications exist, which do not include the same level of requirements in terms of training and clinical practice. There are also charities.

I chose this profession out of passion. I know how important breastfeeding can be for a mother and her child. I adapt my suggestions to each situation.

I chose this certification for the scientific rigour it brings: the information I give is evidence-based, and I regularly update myself on the results of new scientific studies.
