Leanne Rzepa, RN BN IBCLC
Founder + heart behind Nourish
Leanne graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing in 2000. She developed a passion for Breastfeeding as she began her career working as a Post Partum Nurse. She became an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2007 and founded Nourish Lactation Consulting in 2008.
She could see from working within the hospital setting there was a need for additional in-home support for breastfeeding mothers.
So NLC was established and has become Calgary’s premier choice for in-home breastfeeding support and education.
Leanne has 3 beautiful daughters. Kayla, Alyssa, & Maya. She breastfed all 3 of them with major challenges throughout her journey. Leanne truly feels that her own personal experiences have taught her to better support the mothers, babies, and families she works with.
Her passion is palpable, her experience extensive, and her support unparalleled.
