Meet Danice

Danice the owner and Lactation Consultant of Little Milky Way. She is a mother of 2 from Northern Jersey with a passion of supporting, educating and bringing communities of breastfeeding families together. Her professional career includes earning a degree in Health Science from Long Island University and an instructor in biology and math. Her aspirations to becoming a full-time supporter for breastfeeding families, an IBCLC, came through personal experiences breastfeeding her two children. Through starting her own breastfeeding support group to help her get through those bumpy road, she realized her love for educating and supporting families should become one.

Danice Miranda

Board Certified Lactation Consultant

She brings experience working as a Peer Counselor in WIC NY Presbyterian while studying her lactation specific courses. Since finishing her clinical hours working with Dr. Amy Schecter from Breastfeeding Medicine of NJ, she found her need to commit and specialized in supporting families who have babies with tethered oral tissues. She continues to further her education in the most updated research and information.

She serves as a trustee for New Jersey Breastfeeding Coalition on their Education Committee. Since becoming part of the coalition she has had the pleasure in managing the creation of training videos to help educate child care centers in becoming breastfeeding friendly.

During her free time, you can find her hiking through trails at National Parks with her family, taking road trips exploring new places in America and reading a good book while sipping coffee at local cafes.

I strive to help mothers reach their goals in nursing and hope you allow me to guide you on your journey!

Breastfeeding is empowering! Big accomplishments takes dedication that you may not know you have! Lets do this together!
