Nikoletta Lis

Midwife (BSc.), MPH, IBCLC

Nikoletta is the founder of Femiliarise. She is a midwife, lactation consultant, and researcher with a profound commitment to women's and families’ wellbeing.

Nikoletta completed her midwifery studies in Hellas, in 2014. Her curiosity and passion for the art of midwifery and women's health led her to travel around the globe (Hellas, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom), where she worked in both midwifery-led units and hospitals. Over the years, she has also provided her midwifery and lactation services in community and refugee camps under global, non-governmental organisations.

She holds two Master’s degrees: one in Exercise and Health and a second in Public Health. Additionally, she has various certifications in yoga, somatic movement, Reiki, and infant massage.

Clinically, she has gained experience in both natural and specialised antenatal, labor, and postnatal care for women and neonates, as well as in pregnancy loss, reproductive and sexual health.

Since 2019, as a lactation consultant (IBCLC), she has assisted many families and newborns during their breastfeeding journey.

During her journey, she came across the effects of epigenetics in health, functional medicine, and the integrative care model, all of which she has since started to apply in her practice.

Nikoletta passionately believes in the power of the female body, advocating for natural approaches without unnecessary interventions. She empowers women’s autonomy over their bodies, supporting their rights to make informed decisions during birth and throughout their entire reproductive lives.

Her research interests include among others; the impact of exercise, environment, and nutrition on cellular aging and women's health.

Currently, she resides and practices in Oslo Norway, providing her services both in person and through telehealth (virtually).
