Jen Peppard is a Certified Breastfeeding Consultant, Registered Nurse and Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner. Jen grew up in Kansas City, attended St. Teresa’s Academy, and then Cornell College in Iowa to obtain her undergraduate degree. She returned to school to earn her BSN and became a labor/delivery and mother/baby nurse. This led her down the path of completing her Masters in Nursing in order to provide high quality, caring health care to the women of Kansas City. The experience of breastfeeding her own two children was priceless for Jen and led her to obtain further lactation education. Jen truly enjoys helping patients learn to breastfeed.
Jen calls South KC home today and enjoys spending time with her kids, Ayla and Aidan, and her husband, Craig. She enjoys time with family, supporting her kids’ extracurricular activities, reading a good book, and walks with her life-long friends who live in KC too.
