About Joyous Chaos

Our Story

Joyous Chaos (formerly Lavender Lactation, LLC ) started as a dream back in the summer of 2020! Yes, in the midst of a global pandemic where everyone and everything was experiencing chaos while learning how to quickly transition everyday life into a virtual reality. I was working 3 days a week as an inpatient Pediatric Nurse Practitioner in the Newborn Nursery at UNC and 1 day a week in our pediatric clinic doing lactation consultations. I quickly learned how to help families navigate their “Happy Crisis” including breastfeeding struggles via Telemedicine. As much as my husband and I loved our jobs, God had other plans for our family and placed it on our hearts to move to Harrisonburg, VA in November of 2020. At that time our son was 9 (navigating virtual school) and our twins were 16 months old. Talk about a “Happy Crisis” for our family! This move would allow my husband to take an active role in the family farm and me to care for our 3 children while working from home with our Wellness Company Isagenix. Since November of 2020 I have served over 50 families with their own "Joyous Chaos” including breastfeeding support, in-home consultations, phone/FaceTime consults and newborn education classes. In the summer of 2023 I felt it was time to rebrand to Joyous Chaos, in hopes of providing a more inclusive approach to supporting families welcoming a newborn into their home! My goals are your goals! It is my job to help you reach them! Thank you for being part of my story and I am honored to be part of yours!
