My Story
Anne Leclercq, IBCLC, CPM
I am a certified midwife in both Europe and the US, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and a Marquette Method Certified professional (MMCP). With over 20 years of experience in holistic birth, I’ve worked in Belgium, France, and the US, including hospitals, private practice, and Birthing Center.
​
My husband and I moved from France to Austin, Texas, in 2012 with our two eldest children, and our youngest son was born right here in Austin. Talk about a Texan welcome!
I’m also a certified Haptotherapist, having received my certification from CIRDH in 2012. Haptonomy, widely used in Europe, helps parents-to-be function as partners in parenting before birth. I’m proud to be the only practicing Haptotherapist in the US.

-
Certified Nurse Midwife ( EIULB 2000-2204 Bruxelles Belgium)
-
Pre-Postnatal Aquatic Childbirth Education (Aquarius @Ostende Belgium, 2005)

​
My passion for motherhood and birth drives me to help others experience a calm and stress-free birth. I love being a midwife and Lactation consultant; supporting and empowering women is my true calling. I am dedicated to guiding mothers through their breastfeeding journey. Helping them overcome challenges and ensuring they have a positive and successful experience with breastfeeding is incredibly fulfilling.
​
Currently, I’m also focused on helping women better understand their bodies and fertility. I want the women to be empowered and be supported in their choice.
