Infant Feeding & Lactation Consulting - Every baby, parent, and feeding journey is unique. You deserve support without pressure or judgment—tailored to you and your little one. Prenatally, Sarah, our caring lactation counsellor, offers consultations to help you feel confident and prepared before baby arrives. Once baby arrives both Sarah and Karrie are here to support you with feeding concerns. Sarah supports you after birth with concerns such as milk supply, latch, positioning, mixed feeding, flange fitting and pumping. Karrie, our gentle Speech-Language Pathologist and IBCLC, specializes in oral function, suck training, and frenectomy-related care. Together, they create a safe space where your questions are heard, choices respected, and baby’s needs met with skill and compassion. Whether breast, bottle, or both, we’ll guide and educate you to ensure baby is growing well with follow-ups and weight checks.

Insurance We do not direct bill. SLP services may be reimbursed under Speech Therapy benefits.

Facial neuromuscular retraining for problems resulting to damage to the peripheral facial nerve. This therapy targets conditions such as Bell's Palsy, Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, Acoustic Neuroma and Congenital Facial Palsies. Facial neuromuscular retraining involves isolated muscle work, equalizing tone on both sides of the face and working to improve facial symmetry. This therapy is effective in minimizing dissymmetry while awaiting nerve regeneration and maximizing facial control of the muscles which are reinnervated.

Sarah is a lifelong learner whose curiosity about the world around her has led her on many adventurous paths. Following her passion to understand people and culture Sarah completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology/Psychology from the University of Calgary. Upon graduating Sarah decided to apply all she had learned to the art of parenthood and spent many wonderful years raising her 4 children. During those years her love of learning only increased which led her to pursue education in several fields including contemplative living, Montessori education and finally led her to completing her Certified Lactation Counsellor Training from the Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice in 2017. Following completion of her course Sarah trained and volunteered with Le Leche League for 4 years, supporting parents in navigating the journey of breastfeeding. Sarah connected with Karrie several years ago over their mutual passion for quality lactation care for families. They dreamed of working together and in Fall 2022 that dream became a reality as Sarah joined the Tip of the Tongue team. Sarah is lucky to wear two different hats at our clinic. She finds great joy in being our Virtual Practice Manager, helping our Tip of the Tongue families feel welcomed, supported and connected every step of the way. She also has the privilege of being a part of our lactation clinic team which strives to educate, empower and support families through their prenatal and postpartum breastfeeding/infant feeding journey. Using evidence based education and a compassionate counselling style, Sarah helps families feel well-prepared to have a positive breastfeeding experience. She also offers families skilled and knowledgeable support to address breastfeeding/infant feeding challenges they might encounter during those early postpartum weeks. It is Sarah’s great joy to offer a skilled and compassionate presence to others. Sarah shares life with her husband and 4 kids. They live at a Summer Camp/Retreat Centre on Gull Lake which means they place a high value on fun and take every opportunity to adventure.
