Belma Skaljic, BSN, RN, IBCLC
“Belma teaching me to breastfeed was the greatest gift anyone has ever given me,” said a grateful recipient of Belma’s lactation coaching. At a tender and delicate time in a new mother’s experience with a newborn, Belma’s patient teaching approach and endless encouragement are the right combinations to overcome any concerns or frustrations with breastfeeding. Her simple touch of the mother’s hand or a gentle hug carries significant influence on the physical and mental health of a new mother. Belma’s tutelage of countless mothers has endeared them to her. In her honor, many women give generously so other mothers can learn and apply the techniques of Belma’s priceless teaching.
