About the Provider

Yukari (she/her) is an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). She decided to pursue a career in lactation after having trouble with tongue and lip ties for both of her children. The lactation consultants who were vital to her successful breastfeeding journeys inspired her to help other parents find joy in feeding their babies.

Yukari believes in providing evidence-based care to achieve every parents’ feeding goals, whether it be body/breastfeeding, hybrid, or bottle feeding (with or without formula!). She has extensive training and experience in Tethered Oral Tissue (tongue, lip and buccal ties) and has a special interest in airway health.

Born in Japan and raised in Boston, MA, Yukari has lived in NYC for 15 years. She lives in Prospect Heights with her husband, Tim, and her 6 year old son and 3 year old daughter.  When she’s not studying or running after her two young children, her hobbies are reading, napping, and all things food (she’s also a trained chef!).

Yukari is bilingual in Japanese and English and can support families in both languages.
