A few words from Brittany:
Hi everyone, I just want to let you know why I’m interested in these programs and a
little about myself. I am overjoyed by being given this opportunity to work with this
amazing program, and I have many ideas.
First off, I would like to let you know I plan
on working to grow all of our programs and hopefully expanding into the future. I
really would like to hear from each of you what you are looking for/craving in the
community. I am just a regular mom trying to fill the void that I wish I had had here in
our lovely hometown when I first started out as a parent.
As a mother of 3 boys who has raised my boys in Eureka, I know personally how hard
it can be to raise kids here, especially in the winter months. My main focus is to close
the gap and hopefully bring a variety of resources while maintaining a small-town
feel. My enthusiasm for making our community better and bringing families together will be a wonderful asset to this amazing town.
My favorite way to spend my off hours is with my family outdoors, whether it is
hiking, fishing, dirt biking, or being in the garden. I love a good book in the winter
with some warm fresh-baked goods.

Hello!
I am Rebecca, and I am the Nurse Care Coordinator at Logan Health Eureka Primary Care. I have lived in Eureka since 2005, enjoying our small-ish town life and raising our children. As a care coordinator, I help people with chronic conditions or those who need a little extra support with their healthcare. As a mom of 4, ages 9-20, I care deeply about access to quality programs and activities for children and families. My kids have been in a variety of activities including sports, scouting, clubs, and volunteering, and I believe participation and engagement make a positive difference in mental, emotional, and physical growth and development.
We spend the summer in our garden, playing in the water, going to markets, and visiting relatives. In the fall/winter, I really enjoy watching our kids’ sports and karate, and preparing for and celebrating the holidays.
I look forward to helping Family Strong continue to provide activities and curriculum that will nurture and inspire the families of North Lincoln County. Together, we can create a vibrant and healthy community!

My name is Christy Lytle, I am an RN at Logan Health Kalispell.
I grew up in Eureka and received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Montana State. I have worked in Labor and Delivery, NICU and Lactation for the 20 years prior to moving back to Eureka.
I became a Board Certified Lactation Consultant(IBCLC) in 2017 and can see patients for Lactation issues in the clinic or at Family Strong. The unit that I worked in prior was very developmentally focused, so I am happy to help evaluate growth and development with your infants and children. I have also worked closely with OT/PT and Nutrition in my past. I came from a progressive hospital setting, where we aggressively treated for oral restrictions. I am comfortable doing oral evaluations prior to and after revisions.
I grew up in Eureka and am happy to be back! I certainly missed the mountains and my family. In the summer we love to camp and swim. In the winter I spend most of my time watching our kids play football, basketball and dance.
My goal is to help facilitate healthy relationships between families, help people to feel supported in raising their children, and to offer feeding/lactation assistance as needed. I hope to see you at Family Strong.
