& Leslie Owen

Founder / Registered Nurse / IBCLC

Hi, I'm Leslie,
the founder of Mother Nurture Maternity, and your go-to expert for all things lactation and lactation education.

In my private practice, I provide compassionate, evidence-based breastfeeding support to families both locally in West Georgia and virtually across the country.

Whether you’re preparing for your first baby, navigating latch issues, low supply, a tongue tie, or heading back to work and figuring out the pump life - I’m here for it (and I take most insurance plans, too).

But my work doesn’t stop with families. I’m also the creator of Lactation Consultant Launchpad™, a mentorship-driven Pathway 1 program designed to make becoming an IBCLC feel possible - without confusion, burnout, or breaking the bank.

I coach aspiring lactation consultants, birth workers, doulas, and even burned-out nurses ready for a career shift, giving them the roadmap and the real-life support they need to succeed.

As a mentor, I believe in meeting you where you are - whether that’s in scrubs, in a birth center, or on your lunch break wondering if you’re really cut out for this. (Spoiler: you are!) And I’m here to help you get there with education, encouragement, and a whole lot of real talk.
