Hi, I’m Jasmine Buchanan.
R.N.B.N., IBCLC
⚲ CALGARY
My journey in maternal-child health began 15 years ago as a registered nurse in a postpartum unit. I developed a deep appreciation for evidence-based care, real-life solutions, and the powerful intuition parents bring to the table.
I have travelled to many countries and noted that while Canada has unlimited access to information and research on feeding recommendations, we lack the physical support needed for the mom- baby dyad to carry out these recommendations. I became an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant because I recognized this gap in care. I have a special interest in infant oral dysfunction and oral tethers and how they can impact the feeding relationship.
It’s been my pleasure to support countless families through some of the most vulnerable, life-changing times in their lives- whether that’s troubleshooting latch and supply challenges, finding the right rhythm with pumping, bottles, or weaning. No judgement, just real talk and professional guidance.
When I'm not at work, you can find me horseback riding at the barn, kayaking in the mountains, or just connecting in nature with my family.
