Brandi Martin, CNM, IBCLC

Brandi is a mom of two, a wife and a new resident of South Florida! She has been helping mothers and babies for over 10 years as a Registered Nurse and Lactation consultant and she is excited to support the community and bring her expertise and experience to My Mom Glow. Brandi completed her Master's Degree in 2023 from the University of Cincinnati and was soon licensed as a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM). She was also board certified as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2020. 

 

Brandi is very passionate and truly enjoys helping families get their pregnancy, postpartum and breastfeeding journey off to a great start. After struggling to breastfeed her two tongue tied babies, she learned a few things that helped them achieve the perfect latch. She learned that the perfect latch is whatever is needed to help make the  breastfeeding journey more manageable and enjoyable for both mom and baby. Lactation is not always the easiest thing in the world to master, but it is Brandi's goal to empower families to believe that their lactation journey is achievable.

Cheryl's passion for supporting families in breastfeeding began with the birth of her first child. As a new mother, she recognized the need for guidance and turned to La Leche League, a mother-to-mother support network, where breastfeeding moms could connect and share experiences. This community inspired her to become a volunteer breastfeeding peer counselor, leading to a career in public health and eventually earning her certification as an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2006. With more than 20 years of public health experience, Cheryl also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Public Administration.
