Hi, I'm Jackie, a pediatric occupational therapist, certified lactation counselor, and founder of Feed and Function.

I created Feed and Function to help families feel confident navigating feeding, from breastfeeding and bottle feeding to starting solids and beyond. My goal is to provide practical, evidence-based support that helps parents feel informed, supported, and empowered.

In-home and in-office support across Nassau County & Western Suffolk . Virtual appointments available anywhere.
