About

Rochelle Alberti

I am a Certified Lactation Consultant (ALPP ID # 322636) with The Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice. Prior to becoming certified with them, I spent 20+ years as a mother to mother supporter.

I am a trained Professional doula.

I am the mother of 6 beautiful children ranging in age from 13 to 32.

I am a lifelong student of natural childbirth, starting when I was in high school and an adult friend had a homebirth with a midwife.  I saw how a good support system enables a person to have a good birth experience and do things they weren’t sure they could do.  I am a firm believer that birth belongs to the parents and the baby and with education they can make the best birth decisions for them and their situation.

I believe in taking care of our environment and, thus, ourselves.  My faith as a Christian makes this paramount to my life….we are to be loving caretakers of the earth and each other.

A baby nursing at a mother’s breast… is an undeniable affirmation of our rootedness in nature. ~David Suzuki
