Welcome to
the Nursing Nook!
The Nursing Nook was created by
Jennifer Stires to help meet the needs of new
parents in Montana, particularly in the area of
breastfeeding. Jennifer and Scott Stires have
two young daughters and through their own
parenting experiences they have realized the
importance of having accurate advice, support,
and encouragement from other parents and
professionals. The Nursing Nook strives to
educate people about breastfeeding and hopes to
see a positive change in our culture. A culture
where parents make informed decisions
and they are embraced and supported
for the decisions they have made. Times are
different now and more mothers work out of
their homes and away from their babies than
ever before. Some mothers return to full-time
jobs shortly after delivering their babies.
Extended families live more miles apart than
ever before. There are simply more demands,
less time, more expenses, and less accessible
support for parents. The Nursing Nook hopes to
provide all parents with a comfortable setting
where they can ask questions and be given
professional advice from another parent.
Jennifer is a Registered Nurse and an
International Board Certified Lactation
Consultant. She is passionate about helping
mothers and babies breastfeed comfortably and
enjoyably. She is realistic because she has
been there. She realizes that at times
balancing parenthood with all other
responsibilites can be overwhelming. While the
Nursing Nook is a place where parents feel
comfortable asking questions about
breastfeeding and breastfeeding supplies, the
most important aspect of the Nursing Nook is
that parents will relate to another parent.
They will feel at ease, hopefully sit down in a
comfy chair and chat for a while. Jennifer
expects and welcomes the many questions new
parents have regarding their infant's care.
The Nursing Nook provides many
services and products. You may schedule a
private lactation consultation or simply
walk-in during normal business hours and
request a consultation. Consultations can also
be scheduled in the comfort of your own home. The
Nursing Nook offers Breastfeeding
Education classes for parents and health
care professionals. CPR and First Aid
classes are taught on a monthly basis at
the Nursing Nook by Scott Stires. Some of
the products sold at the Nursing Nook are
Medela Breastpumps, Breastpump accessories
and specialty feeding devices, nursing
bras and apparel which will be properly
fitted to ensure the right size is
purchased, locally made nursing covers,
glass and BPA free bottles, Adiri Natural
Nursing Bottles, Motherlove Herbal
products to enhance milk supply or treat
common breastfeeding problems.
Medela Hospital-grade Breastpumps can also
be rented from the Nursing
Nook. Parents can visit the
Nursing Nook to weigh their
infant for free. Appointments
are not necessary. The baby scale is free to
use during normal business hours. The
Nursing Nook is truly a “One Stop
Breastfeeding Shop and Support Center.” We
do hope you will visit today! You will find
more information about services and products
throughout our website. Enjoy and Thanks for
visiting!
Happy Parenting,
Jennifer and Scott Stires
