A lactation consultant is a healthcare provider recognized as an expert in the fields of human lactation and breastfeeding. The International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners is the presiding organization in the United States of America for certified laction consultants internationally. A Board Certified Lactation Consultant will have the initials IBCLC after her name, the way a doctor would have MD or a registered nurse would have RN. Lactation Consultants can be found in private practice and on staff in certain hospitals.
