Congratulations!!

Becoming a mother is a beautiful and transformative time, from pregnancy and birth to nurturing your baby. Many moms find comfort and guidance from those who’ve successfully breastfed before. I know that every mother-baby pair is unique, and sometimes, an extra hand makes all the difference.

If you’re looking for more support or guidance with breastfeeding, I’m here to help.

My goal is to support you, your baby, and your family as you navigate your breastfeeding journey.

I offer personalised lactation consultations in the comfort of your own space, so you can focus on what matters most — caring for your baby and yourself.

Your First Session

It’s helpful to know what to expect after you book your lactation consultation and during your first session.

My goal is to provide guidance and support as you and your baby work towards your personal breastfeeding goals.

Here’s what you can expect and how to prepare:

  1. Booking Confirmation: After you complete your payment and your booking is confirmed, you’ll receive a confirmation email.
  2. Forms: The email will include two forms for registration and consent. Please read and complete them before your appointment to ensure a smooth start.
  3. Prepare Your Notes: It’s a great idea to write down any questions or concerns ahead of time, so we can make sure to cover everything during your session.
  4. During Your Appointment:

History Taking

We will discuss your and your baby’s history, including your pregnancy, birth experience, and breastfeeding journey up to the appointment.

Assessment

Assessing your baby's oral anatomy and tongue function as they relate to breastfeeding.

Observe

Observing you and your baby during breastfeeding and offering suggestions or adjustments as needed.

Support

We will discuss strategies to support you and your baby, along with options for managing any breastfeeding challenges, including input from your support person with your consent.

The need for follow-up will depend on your individual situation and will be addressed at the end of the appointment.

 

5. Follow-Up Email: After your home visit or virtual appointment, you will receive an email within 24 hours containing your personalised breastfeeding management plan and your invoice/receipt.

Feel free to reply if you have any questions or feedback.

This call will be scheduled on your chosen day between 10 AM and 4 PM. It’s best for clients who have already had their initial consultation with me, as it helps to address your concerns in the context of your breastfeeding history. New clients are welcome too, and we can decide if a longer consultation is needed during the call.
