Location: Santa Monica

Mahmee's overarching goal is to deliver expert-level lactation support and education to families both in-hospital and post-discharge. While promoting breastfeeding remains a primary objective, we are committed to respecting a family's right to choose the best feeding method for them.

  • Latching and Positioning: Latching and positioning newborns using symmetrical latch techniques.
  • NICU Patient Needs: Have a thorough understanding of the unique needs of NICU patients

  • Breast Pump Operation: Understand the operation of breast pumps and their indications for use.
  • Impact of Birthing Practices: Understand the impact of birthing practices on breastfeeding.
You must have all of these skills:
  • Feeding Devices: Proficiency in selecting and using feeding devices such as supplemental nursing systems, nipple shields, and finger feeding to improve health outcomes.
  • Communication: Excellent communication with patients, team members, and hospital staff
  • Clinical and Critical Thinking: Strong clinical skills combined with critical thinking abilities
  • Workload Management: Ability to prioritize and manage patient workload based on acuity levels
  • Assessment Skills: Conducting maternal and infant assessments to identify feeding challenges
  • Latch and Position Instruction: Providing bedside instruction on proper latch and positioning techniques.
Your responsibilities include but are not limited to:
  • Provide hands-on, clinical lactation guidance and support to mother-baby dyads on breastfeeding techniques and challenges at the bedside.
  • Educate and instruct mother-baby dyads on hand expression, milk collection, breast pump use, and the use of various feeding devices.
  • Document patient care promptly in the company’s EHR and EPIC systems.
  • As part of an interdisciplinary team, collaborate with hospital staff, physicians, nurses, and occupational and physical therapists to develop feeding plans for a range of infants, from normal newborns to complex neonates.
  • Use clinical and critical thinking skills to assess, diagnose, and treat breastfeeding challenges.
  • Construct appropriate feeding plans to support the health of the dyad and their feeding goals.
  • Counsel patients on breastfeeding techniques and strategies, individualized to the dyad's unique medical needs.
  • Monitor and report to hospital staff on patient's progress with breastfeeding
  • Ensure feeding equipment is properly stocked and cleaned.
  • Engage in staff education sessions
Requirement
  • Active IBCLC Certification
