    Thank you everyone! Well I am a peds nurse practitioner in an inner city/poor/uneducated clinic part time. So initially I am going to be teaching free classes after hours to women in the area. WIC pays for Carnation Good Start formula, but some babies don't tolerate well. Breastfeeding is another great (free) alternative.

    I am interested in private practice in the future.
