​Meet Your Lactation Consultant:  Alisha Privitera IBCLC

Hi, I’m Alisha Privitera—the founder of Nourish & Bloom Lactation and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).

I became an IBCLC because I believe every parent deserves access to expert, compassionate lactation care—especially during those early, vulnerable weeks. My approach is warm, collaborative, and inclusive. I listen deeply, support your unique goals, and provide care that honors your values and circumstances.

My background includes:

• Board certification as an IBCLC
• Clinical experience in a hospital setting and private practice (over 500 hrs)

I live in Great Valley, NY with my husband, 4 children, and Goldie our mini goldendoodle.  I’m honored to serve families throughout Cattaraugus County and beyond.

What Sets Nourish & Bloom Apart

•  Expert Clinical Support: We use up-to-date, evidence-based techniques to guide our care.
•  Convenience & Comfort: We offer in-home and virtual visits that fit your schedule.
•  Clear, Respectful Communication: We listen first—then tailor our support to your unique needs.
•  Inclusive Care: We welcome and support all families, including LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC parents.

Our Philosophy​
“Babies are born to feed. Parents deserve support.”

We believe feeding your baby is about more than nutrition—it’s about bonding, healing, identity, and growth. Nourish & Bloom is here to walk beside you with empathy and expertise.
