Job Description

IMMA Lactation provides inclusive, informed, and compassionate lactation support for parent/infant dyads via in-home, in-office, and telehealth lactation sessions. We are looking for a part-time IBCLC to join our small but growing team.

QUALIFICATIONS :

• Must be active/fully Certified International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (as determined by the IBCLE).

• Must have minimum 1-2 years clinical experience (certification or training hours to achieve LC or IBCLC do not count toward 1 year minimum).

• Must have private practice work experience.

• Must be fully vaccinated or willing to become vaccinated within 30 days of start date.

• Must have reliable transportation and a clean, valid driver’s license.

• Must provide at least 7-10 hours of availability weekly, including weekends. Please note that because this is a part-time position, there are no guaranteed hours. Hours will vary based on demand, but flexibility in providing hours is mandatory.

• Must be willing to do home visits within a 20-25 minutes radius of your region, in addition to office and telehealth consults.

RESPONSIBILITIES : 

• Must be willing to train under existing IMMA Lactation team to learn the practice’s ethos and clinical framework. 

• Must be emotionally and psychologically intelligent and able to connect with patients from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, particularly as it pertains to infant feeding and family dynamics. 

• Must be computer-adept and able to learn electronic charting platform principles quickly.

• Must be able to assess the parent/infant dyad as it pertains to infant feeding, chart appropriately, intervene within the IBCLC scope as needed, and evaluate next steps.

• Must be able to create lactation visit care plans that reflect the patient/family’s needs.

• Must be able and willing to communicate with existing and new patients/families about scheduling, care plans, and modifications as needed. 

• Must be able and willing to drive to client homes in the Greater Los Angeles area with personal vehicle (gas mileage reimbursement and hourly rate included in travel time)

• Must practice complete HIPAA compliance and maintain patient confidentiality. 

• Though IMMA Lactation provides lactation care 7 days a week, most sessions will take place Monday-Friday. With that said, IBCLCs who join our team must be able to work sporadic weekends if consult requests come up. 

• Must maintain credentials and stay current with lactation continuing education credits.
