Hello from Dodie

Hi! I'm Dodie Hamrick, IBCLC, MPA, BA 

I am a Dallas native living in Rockwall and am the mom to three beautiful, breastfed children. I believe that every baby is a blessing and that parents deserve to have information that will empower them to trust themselves as they begin their parenting journey.

I really struggled to breastfeed my first baby and that's how I learned firsthand the blessing of an IBCLC. I had a wonderful IBCLC who truly saved our breastfeeding relationship. Those same struggles of becoming a new mother were also how I got involved in La Leche League in Rockwall. I served as a leader with La Leche League of Rockwall as well as providing phone-based support for La Leche League USA for several years before deciding to pursue my IBCLC. I became a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist in 2018 and took my IBCLC board exam in 2020. I have since had the pleasure of helping hundreds of precious moms and babies in my private practice. I love helping families feel empowered and supported in their feeding choices and best yet, help them reach their goals! 

I look forward to meeting you and your family. Together we can set you up for what will hopefully be an enjoyable and rewarding breastfeeding experience.
