Why an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant?
An International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (I.B.C.L.C) has passed a fully accredited, rigorous 4-hour examination set by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE). Prerequisites for the board examination include thousands of hours of clinical work and dozens of educational credits in Anatomy & Physiology, Cultural Diversity, Psychology & Counselling, Child Development, Nutrition, among others. The IBLCE certification is recognized as the Gold Standard for health professionals working with breastfeeding women, and all I.B.C.L.C.s are required to adhere to IBLCE’s Professional Standards.

Paola Vallarino, IBCLC
Paola is a Lactation Consultant with over 10 years of medical background and over 1,000 
hours of clinical experience helping families to have a happy breastfeeding journey. 

​She is an International Medical Graduate, a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and an  International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), the gold standard certification for health professionals working with breastfeeding families. She comes from a family of  doctors, and being a health advocate has always been her passion. She found a love for Lactation Medicine when becoming a mother. 

As a breastfeeding mother herself, she understands the difficulties that women can face 
when feeding their babies, and that’s why her mission is to support, educate and empower them with evidence based information so that they can feel confident and give their babies the best start. 

She’s always updating her knowledge with continuing education to give families the best care. Paola also specializes in Child Nutrition and provides families with advice on how to feed their babies when starting solids or supplementing. For Paola, every family is special, and giving them the care they deserve by working on their unique feeding goals without any judgment is her number one priority. ​

​Paola is available in-clinic and virtually.

A Note About yoga Mamas' Cancellation Policies

Please note that we do not offer refunds. Each event/course/training/wellness appt has it's own specific cancellation policy which is listed on each registration page. Please take the time to read these in full prior to registering.  Each event/appointment that we run is in partnership with a practitioner who is focusing their independent career in pre and postnatal health. This is their beautiful livelihood. This is why we have these policies in place. Thank you very much for your understanding. Jamie Kalynuik, Founder of Yoga Mamas
