Infant Feeding Coach & Tongue Tie Assessor services

As a midwife I have supported many dyads with their feeding choices, yet wanted to learn more in order to give enhanced breastfeeding, education and all round infant feeding information. I trained as an Infant feeding coach and tongue tie assessor to advance my knowledge of the physiology and anatomy of breastfeeding and how best to support my clients, to achieve their feeding goals.

My aim is to provide up to date, evidence based information, alongside practical support, however you choose to feed your baby.

I offer antenatal feeding sessions from 34/40 for you and your partner, covering

• The anatomy & physiology of milk production - understanding how your amazing body works is the first step!

• Understanding your newborn - what they are designed to do from birth, their newborn reflexes & instincts and how to support them.

• Skin to skin - this simple but magical way of enhancing your hormones, milk production, bonding, emotional & mental health, and so much more!

• Common breastfeeding myths - where do I begin!

• Breastfeeding - information to support effective positioning & latch right from the start

Postnatal feeding support sessions - Every feeding journey is unique to you and your baby and we can discuss your feeding goals and formulate a plan in the antenatal period, or when baby is here. I take a thorough consultation, taking into account your pregnancy, type of birth and how you would like your feeding journey to look. I am also keen to involve partners with breastfeeding information so they are aware of yours and baby’s needs in the postnatal period and are best placed to support you while feeding is established.
