I have been working with breastfeeding families for over 15 years. As a mother of four, I had my fair share of breastfeeding challenges which led me to the work I do now. My greatest desire is to help breastfeeding families feel heard and supported. We will work together to uncover and overcome the underlying causes of breastfeeding challenges. I will ensure you have an actionable plan to help you reach your breastfeeding goals and the support you need to see it through. I look forward to working with you.

I have been an OB nurse for over 40 years and began to specialize in lactation over 10 years ago. I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) in 2006. My background in nursing has given me a distinct advantage to problem solve breastfeeding difficulties and to be able to formulate plans of care to guide a family to successful breastfeeding. The last few years I have spent a lot of time and study on tongue restrictions (also known as tongue ties). Your baby’s ability to use his/her tongue will be evaluated during my in-home consultation, so you can be assured your family will get a thorough assessment and I will work with you on developing a plan to resolve your breastfeeding issues.

Hey there radiant moms and families! 🥰 I’m Jennifer, a passionate Maternal-Child Health advocate with over two decades as a Registered Nurse and Community Health Educator. My journey began in New Orleans where I graduated from LSU Health Sciences Center’s School of Nursing. My love for Maternal-Child Health truly blossomed after witnessing a Midwife-assisted delivery while in nursing school.
From an RN at The Birthing Place at Tulane University Hospital and Clinic, to volunteering post-Hurricane Katrina, and moving to Houston pregnant with my twins, my passion for supporting moms intensified during my tenure at The Woman’s Hospital of Texas.
I soon realized teaching was my calling. 🍎 As a Certified Childbirth Educator, teaching an array of topics from Infant CPR to Marvelous Multiples, I specialize in empowering parents. And my own NICU journey with my preterm twins fueled my commitment to lactation support. In 2014, I became a Certified Lactation Counselor, and soon after, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. Contributing to The Woman’s Hospital of Texas becoming the first Baby-Friendly Hospital in Houston is a badge of honor for me. My heart is with the fierce moms and their tiny NICU warriors.
With my professional and personal expertise, I was pleased to bring my passion to my community by leading the opening of Memorial Hermann Pearland Hospital’s Lactation and Perinatal Education Departments.
Come 2022, I joined the fantastic Bayou City Breastfeeding crew! Now, from our Webster and West NASA Offices to your cozy homes, I'm here for you. 🏡
Outside of work, I cherish time in Pearland with my husband and four children, engage in my church’s Women’s Ministry, and daydream about sandy beaches.
Ready to embark on this journey together? Let’s make your breastfeeding experience memorable! 💜 Remember, together, we've got this! 🤱🏻🌸

My name is Olivia Owens, I am Registered Nurse specializing in maternal-newborn care and a Certified Lactation Consultant, as well as the founder of Kind Body Empowerment, a practice dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based lactation support to families in the community.
As a mother of three, each with their own unique breastfeeding journey, my personal experiences deeply inform the way I support families today. I created Kind Body Empowerment after struggling to find the support I needed with my middle child and recognizing a gap in accessible, skilled lactation care for mothers in my community.
With a background in nursing and sociology, I bring both clinical expertise and a broader understanding of the social, cultural, and structural factors that influence infant feeding. My work centers on helping families feel supported, informed, and empowered through every stage of their feeding journey, including breastfeeding support, pump education, and helping families navigate resources like obtaining breast pumps through insurance.
