Ali Reynolds, IBCLC

International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

Hi there! I'm Ali, owner of Valley Lactation. As a mom of 3, my experience with feeding my babies has been anything but easy. After struggling for so long on my own before finally getting the help I didn't even know I needed, I decided to pursue a career in lactation. After being a stay-at-home mom for 10 years, I became a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) in 2019, and recently became an IBCLC in 2022 after earning my clinical hours at Community Hospital in Grand Junction, CO. Helping families to feel empowered as they get to know their babies is my passion. I provide prenatal education and in-home postpartum lactation support to the Grand Valley of Western Colorado, as well as bottle feeding and pumping consultations, pump fitting sessions, virtual consults and classes. When you schedule a class or consult with me, you get personalized, compassionate care as we discover how your baby is communicating with you, so that you can respond to their needs with ease. We will then develop a plan that ensures that you and your baby are healthy and thriving. I love seeing families find joy and confidence in feeding their babies.

I can’t wait to meet you and your little one.

Molly Cowden, IBCLC

International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

I am a Grand Junction Native and toddler mom to the most wonderful little girl. I am extremely passionate about lactation support, specifically when it comes to access to support. I am currently offering discounted/sliding scale rates for self pay patients or beneficiaries of Medicaid or WIC. As a recipient of these services myself, I am devoted to ensuring that quality lactation support is provided to all families in our valley, regardless of insurance status. I received my Certified Lactation Counselor (LC) license from Child Birth International in 2024, then went on to earn IBCLC certification in 2026. I provide prenatal education, postnatal lactation visits, or assistance with pumping and bottle feeding. I offer virtual consults, as well as office visits. I am proud to be an inclusive support provider and am here for all families, no matter what they look like. I hope to meet you and your little one soon and help you create a happy, successful feeding journey!

We believe that making milk for our babies is one of the coolest things we are able to do, but it can be very stressful and disappointing when it doesn’t go the way you imagined. Our job is to listen to your concerns and work with you to understand what’s causing them. We are passionate about helping families and babies communicate together, creating healthy babies and happy parents.
