Built by women, for women

Built by a nurse. Made by a mother.

Hi, I’m Courtney Garland. I’m a NICU Registered Nurse, IBCLC lactation consultant, paediatric sleep consultant and mother of four.

I have supported mothers professionally for years, but I have also been exactly where you are. Pregnant. Feeding at 2am. Wondering why a baby will not sleep. Asking myself whether something is normal, even with all my clinical training.

I built The Mama Years to bring the tracking, learning and support I wanted as both a nurse and a mother into one place.
