Amanda King, RN

Breastfeeding was one of the hardest parts of those early days, and Amanda’s expertise as an IBCLC made all the difference. She patiently taught me how to feed my son, took the time to show us how to supplement with a syringe when we needed it, and advocated for our wishes to hold off on formula a little while longer. Her guidance gave me the confidence I desperately needed in a moment that felt overwhelming.

As a first-time mother, I was navigating so much uncertainty, and Amanda took the time to help me see and celebrate the incredible progress my son and I were already making together. It was exactly what I needed to hear in that moment, and I will always be grateful for it.

Nurses like Amanda transform what can be a frightening and overwhelming experience into one where patients feel truly seen, comfortable, and safe.

Amanda, thank you, not only for the exceptional care you gave me and my family, but for the same generosity and compassion you extended to every other patient you supported throughout your shift. Nurses like you are the heart of this hospital.
