  Debbie
Page began working with Mothers & Babies in 1976 as an RN in
Labor & Delivery. Throughout her career she has continued to work
with babies and their families. Besides Labor & Delivery, she has
cared for mothers and babies during their post partum hospital
stay and as a visiting nurse after discharge from the hospital.
She spent 3 years of her career working with families undergoing
fertility treatments.In 1998, she became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and has since worked with hundreds of mothers and babies helping them to succeed at breastfeeding. Debbie started a private practice in 2004 to help meet the need of breastfeeding mothers in the community. She knows and understands the difficulty many women have trying to reach their breastfeeding goals in a society that is very much dominated by formula feeding. She has a special interest in latch difficulties and milk supply issues. In 2007 Debbie trained as an Infant Massage Instructor and fell in love with all aspects of Vimala McClure's method of infant massage. She is very interested in a holistic approach to welcoming the new born baby into the family and infant massage fits right in. She loves lullabies and story telling and has future plans to develop a program designed to help mothers learn rhymes and sing lullabies, as well as tell their stories to their babies. She is also a certified trainer for Harvey Karp's Happiest Baby on the Block. |
