Barbara Kalmen, RN, IBCLC

I loved my baby dolls as a small child, and could think of nothing better than to be able to take care of mothers and babies.  That was my goal and I am privileged to be living my dream.  I have spent 45 years working as a RN in many different hospitals caring for many, many mothers and infants.  The birth of my children and grandchildren has brought me much joy and has served to enlighten me through the many trials and experiences that only children can impart to their mothers.  And I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2006. 

Texas became my forever home with my Mom in 2009 after I retired from serving in the United States Air Force and I taught The Bradley Methodâ„¢ for 40 plus years.  I currently see new mothers privately as I help them to work out the kinks with breastfeeding. It is my greatest joy to be available to give guidance to mothers and help them achieve their breastfeeding goals.  How can I help you?
