About Kara Koehler, IBCLC, CLC

 
Kara was such a valuable resource for us in those early weeks. She was knowledgeable and listened well to our questions as we figured out what works best for our family!

One of the highest values I hold is the value of education, and I consider myself to be a lifelong learner. Over the past several years, I have been growing my knowledge and skills in the field of lactation.

In 2020, I enrolled in UC San Diego’s Lactation Consultant professional certificate program of study. Upon my graduation, I began working as the Lead Curriculum Coordinator at LiquidGoldConcept, a startup focused on training healthcare professionals in the area of clinical lactation in order to globally improve maternal and infant health outcomes. Beginning in 2021, I had the great fortune of interning at City Lactation with Annie Frisbie, IBCLC, serving as my mentor. I became an international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) in 2022. It is now my greatest joy to be working in private practice and supporting the wonderful families in NYC. 

I live in Brooklyn, NY with my husband and our dog. My pronouns are she/her/hers. Apart from supporting families, you will most likely find me reading a good book, playing piano, and cooking at home or enjoying some great food around the city.
