Whether you’re navigating the early days of breastfeeding, adjusting to sleepless nights, or processing the emotions of motherhood, you don’t have to do it alone!
Support makes all the difference, and I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, expertise and reassurance.

What Happens In A Breastfeeding Home Visit?
Step 1: Discussion
We go over the challenges you’ve been having, as well as any advice you’ve been given and things you’ve tried.
Step 2: Observation
I’ll ask you to feed your baby as you have been, and I’ll watch to see if I can spot any potential problems or issues.
Step 3: Assessment
With your permission, I’ll do a full check of your baby’s mouth and tongue, as well as any damage to your breasts.
Step 4: The Plan
With your input, we’ll co-create a plan to get your feeding back on track in a way that works best for you.
Step 5: Questions?
Before I go, I’ll answer any questions and address any other concerns you might have
Step 6: After Care
You’ll receive a detailed care plan with everything we discussed. If anything isn’t working, get in touch and we can change it!
