Howdy!
Molly & Anna have been supporting Bay Area families for a cumulative 30 years. Our shared love of community, education, and families brought us together, and is our guiding light in carrying on the amazing work Loving Arms has done since 1995.
We’re excited to meet you, and support your growing family!
Molly Brannigan
Molly Brannigan, MA, IBCLC has been supporting new parents, babies and expectant parents with lactation since 2004, and as a Board-Certified Lactation Consultant since 2008. Providing non-judgmental, problem-solving support so parents can have a successful and satisfying feeding relationship with their baby is totally her jam. Molly really, really, really likes babies. She also loves yoga, running (maybe you’ll spy her around Lake Merritt!), and texting emojis to her kids.
You can also find Molly at East Bay Lactation Associates.
Anna Mahony
Anna grew up in Northern California, at the tail end of a big family where it felt like there was always a new baby to celebrate. Attending her first birth as a doula in 2009 felt like coming home. Since then she has loved supporting growing families as both a birth and postpartum doula around the Bay Area, with a couple breaks here and there to welcome her own two rad kids. Anna is passionate about fostering parent communities, empowered birth experiences, and minimizing her carbon footprint.
You can also find Anna at Rad Families.
