Meet Kayla
Hi there! My name is Kayla Thorngate and I am passionate about women’s nutrition, especially as it pertains to aspects of motherhood and mental health. The health of a woman (both physically and mentally) can have a lifelong impact on her child’s health and I love helping women in this incredible season.
As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I have had the privilege of working with many mothers with varying health goals, and have seen firsthand the transformational impact of nutrition in their lives. Whether you are in the midst of your pregnancy, are caring for a new baby, or it's been years since you've given birth, I would love to connect with you to hear your goals and the ways I can support your nutrition and health. I look forward to coming alongside you in your journey!
Kayla Thorngate RDN , IBCLC, PMHC
Kind words from my clients...

If you’re looking for an amazing lactation consultant, Kayla is the best! She is incredibly knowledgeable and well-connected in the area. She is easy to work with and I appreciated her thoroughness, especially in her notes and recommendations. Kayla was always quick to respond with questions/concerns that came up after our appointments and sent very helpful videos and resources. I highly recommend Kayla if you need any help with nursing!

I learned of Kayla's work through her online breastfeeding class (in the "The Wild Mama" postpartum prep course), and WOW it was amazing! I was so impressed by the clarity and breadth/depth of her presentation, the way she described expectations and normalized harder parts of the early days, and her knowledge of the most current research and best practices with pacifiers, pumping, and common challenges. I was especially impressed by her awareness of probiotic strains in relation to mastitis. I have also worked with Kayla via virtual consultation. She's helped and educated me about positioning, latch, and clogged ducts & engorgement. Because of her guidance, I was able to prevent mastitis - thank you so much!

Kayla is an amazing lactation resource!! We worked with her for a few months post tongue tie release with my baby girl. She came to our home and was always so helpful. She is always quick at getting back to questions I have and is so kind to take the time to work through things with us!
