Meet the Mamas

We’re Mamas, Registered Nurses and Lactation Consultants

We are Mamas to a total of 5 kids and are very familiar with the joys and trials of birthing and raising tiny humans. We know what those early days can feel like and we are here to help! With 22 years of combined Maternity Nursing between us, we are uniquely experienced in pregnancy, birthing and postpartum care both in the hospital and community settings. We are also International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) and are passionate about helping you and your baby in your feeding journey!

    Mom - Nurse - Birth Culture Enthusiast

    After living in Scotland in my early 20’s and learning that midwives were a real thing and not something out of a historical novel, I returned to Canada and started down the birth culture rabbit hole. I discovered that birth is not how it is often portrayed on TV and that there are so many ways to bring tiny humans in to the world. To that end, I entered nursing with the specific intent of working in Maternity care, and have done so since my graduation in 2014. While I have my Perinatal Specialty from BCIT which focuses on labour and delivery, I also have a strong background in postpartum care.

  • Kirsten Lindemulder

    BKin, MSN RN, IBCLC

    I grew up in Calgary and got my Bachelors in Kinesiology with the goal of working in healthcare. During my studies I started looking into nursing and was drawn to the wide variety of opportunities within the profession. In 2008, I graduated with my Nursing degree from the University of Calgary. I went straight into maternity nursing and ended up working on the unit where I was born! I also did my Masters of Science in Nursing in 2015.

    I love to travel and have had opportunities to visit and live in new places and experience many different cultures. After spending a year in Australia, my husband and I moved to Surrey. I enjoy living on the West Coast, being close to the beach and spending time outdoors.

    I love maternity care and have spent my entire nursing career so far sharing in the pregnancy and delivery journeys of so many families. I am passionate about empowering families to have the knowledge they need to have the best experience throughout their pregnancy, delivery and postpartum periods.

    I look forward to working with you on your parenting journey!
