About Me

Rooted in Expertise. Designed for Your Family.

At Raiz Materna Lactation, care is guided by the belief that feeding support should feel thoughtful, tailored, and deeply reassuring—not rushed, generic, or overwhelming.

This is a private, high‑touch experience, where clinical expertise is delivered with calm presence and intentional care.

A Refined Standard of Clinical Care

Led by Carolina Pimenta, RN, BSN, IBCLC, RLC each consultation reflects a commitment to precision, depth, and individualized attention.

I am a bilingual registered nurse and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with over 16 years of experience in lactation support, both inpatient and outpatient, in maternal-child health, including labor & delivery, NICU, newborn care, and providing evidence‑based lactation care, with extensive experience supporting breastfeeding families. I have had the privilege of guiding over 10,000 parent–infant dyads through their feeding journeys.

Care is never one‑size‑fits‑all. Each visit includes:

Comprehensive assessment of both parent and baby Insight grounded in current, evidence‑based practice A care plan thoughtfully designed for your specific needs The focus is not only on resolving challenges, but on doing so with clarity, confidence, and respect for your goals.

Culturally Grounded, Thoughtfully Delivered

Raiz meaning “root” in Portuguese reflects a deeper philosophy: that care should be grounded in understanding, respect, and connection.

Influenced by Brazilian heritage, this practice honors:

Cultural traditions and preferences Individual feeding journeys The importance of feeling seen and understood Every family is supported with discretion, sensitivity, and intention.
