Summary
Lindsey Rene Murphy is an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) providing breastfeeding consultations and other breastfeeding related services to families in Long Island, NY. She provides both prenatal and post partum consultations, to both new moms and experienced ones. Lindsey typically sees patients at home, but also sees patients at her main office in Garden City and her home office in Massapequa.
In September 2011 (prior to being accredited as an IBCLC), she founded the Facebook group "Modern Tribal Mamas", which is a forum for new and seasoned mothers to share their thoughts, advice, stories, questions, etc. on topics like pregnancy, birthing, breastfeeding, co-sleeping, and baby wearing (just to name a few). The group currently has over 1500 active members, and generates roughly 80-120 posts per day.
Lindsey's company, Long Island Breastfeeding, was founded in April 2012 and serves as a referral network for birthing and breastfeeding professionals. The core mission of the company is to expand awareness and promote services related to breastfeeding and natural childbirth, while providing our professional network with the opportunity to market their services more efficiently. Long Island Breastfeeding offers the following services on a flexible schedule:
- Lactation Consultants
- Breastfeeding Counselors
- Labor Douals
- Post Partum Doulas
- Placenta Encapsulation
- Breastfeeding Classes
[Note: Many insurance companies will reimburse for visits with a lactation consultant, so make sure to review your plan and/or discuss with your insurance company.]
More recently, Lindsey has accepted a position at Winthrop University Hospital teaching their regularly scheduled breastfeeding classes. This is something that she is truly enjoying, since it allows her to connect, on a regular basis, with so many parents who have an interest in breastfeeding. The classes are, of course information and educational, however Lindsey strives to create an atmosphere that is fun, energetic, and intimate. In the future, Lindsey aspires to reach an even larger audience by creating a series of educational web videos intended to provide a more comprehensive understanding of breastfeeding, to support families by increasing knowledge related to these issues.
