Hi, I'm Jessica
Mother
Nurse
Founder of The Oxytocin Collective
After nearly a decade working in women’s health, labour and delivery, and pediatric emergency care, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside families during some of their most vulnerable and transformative moments. My work has spanned L&D, postpartum, NICU, high-risk pregnancies, operative births, and pediatric trauma—paths that naturally led me to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and to focus on prenatal education, lactation support, and child health and safety.
I’ve seen firsthand how overwhelming, conflicting, and isolating parenting information can feel. That’s why I created The Oxytocin Collective—to offer trustworthy, face-to-face support that helps parents feel informed, confident, and genuinely supported from the very beginning. After all oxytocin is the love and bonding hormone.
Becoming a mother to my daughter, Poppy, has added a deeply personal layer to this work. She’s taught me, in the most humbling way, the difference between how we imagine things will unfold and how they actually do—and why compassionate, realistic support matters more than ever.
