What Inspired Lauren to Become a Lactation Consultant in Bellevue TN

You’re exhausted.

Baby’s fussy.

The latch hurts, the bottle isn’t going well, and you’re wondering if you’re doing this whole feeding thing “right.”


In those moments, what most parents need isn’t more pressure it’s more support.

That’s when you’ll want someone like Lauren Sprowls, BSN, RN, IBCLC, in your corner.


As a lactation consultant in Bellevue and West Nashville, TN, Lauren helps families find their footing offering in-home and virtual lactation visits grounded in kindness, clinical knowledge, and real-life experience.


“I struggled personally with breastfeeding,” Lauren says. “It created a huge desire in me to learn more so I could help other moms have the breastfeeding journey they dream of.”


From CLC to IBCLC: Celebrating Lauren’s Milestone


This year, Lauren Sprowls officially added IBCLC to her name and we couldn’t be more proud.


Lauren joined Blessed Beginnings as a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC). She brought compassion, curiosity, and commitment to every step of the journey always showing up for families with both heart and hustle.


Now, as a newly certified International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, Lauren brings even more expertise to her work with families in Bellevue, West Nashville, and beyond. Her personal experience, paired with clinical training and mentorship, makes her a truly grounded and goal-focused provider.


Lauren, we’re so proud to have you on the team and can’t wait to see the impact you’ll continue to make.


Her Favorite Tip? Get That Latch Lined Up

It sounds small, but Lauren swears by it.


“Positioning for latching makes a HUGE difference in comfort for mom and baby,” she says.

Sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs come from tiny adjustments  and a calm guide who helps you figure it out without shame or overwhelm.

Feeding Doesn’t Have to Look One Way

New parents often feel like they’re doing it “wrong.”

But Lauren reminds families in West Nashville and Bellevue every day that feeding your baby isn’t about doing it perfectly it’s about doing what works for you.


“No matter how you do it,” she says, “feeding will always be a special time together.”



Words That Reflect How She Shows Up

Lauren doesn’t just provide feeding tips, she shows up with compassion, clarity, and a quiet strength that makes parents feel less alone.


It’s no surprise that her favorite verse is:“She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.” — Proverbs 31:25


It’s more than a quote. It’s how she approaches every visit.

Because when a new parent feels overwhelmed by feeds, unsure about their body, or buried under worry, Lauren brings that steady reminder: you’re stronger than you think and you don’t have to figure it out alone.


That’s what real support looks like.
