Sara Gale has been a practicing Registered Nurse since 2009 and working with breastfeeding families since 2011. She received her International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) credential in 2017. She is married with 3 wonderful and rambunctious kids.

She is also very happy to incorporate prayer into her consultations and has a special devotion to Our Lady of La Leche.
