Dr. Jennie Bever is a lactation consultant, also known as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), that supports mothers who currently are or plan to nurse their babies. She works with moms and their sweet little munchkins to help them on their breastfeeding journey, which is something very primal and important, but also something that is not necessarily intuitive or easy!Jennie’s first child was born while she was still in graduate school, and the challenges she experienced during her 4th trimester inspired her to become an IBCLC and start a clinical lactation practice, the Arizona Breastfeeding Center. In addition to her private practice, Jennie co-founded 4th Trimester Arizona, a nonprofit with a mission to change the culture of parenting so no one has to do it alone and the vision that all families are embraced by their communities in their transition to parenthood. Jennie's job involves inquiry and investigation, interacting with awesome moms and adorable babies, providing suggestions and resources, and more. This career choice is great for people who are interested in clinical or healthcare-related fields, as well as people who love children, but don't necessarily want to work in childcare or education.
