​

We appreciate that breastfeeding is not always easy and sometimes you need a little extra

Why Choose Us

​

As qualified Lactation Consultants we are able to provide specialist and practical support to help overcome any breast-feeding challenges that you may experience during the first few weeks and months following your baby's arrival. Unfortunately, there are many people who call themselves “Breastfeeding Specialists/Breastfeeding Consultants/Babyfeeding  Specialists” without holding any valid credentials. Breastfeeding counsellors have substantial breastfeeding training and must belong to an accredited organisation. However, Lactation Consultants have the most extensive, evidence-based, and up-to-date knowledge. Please take the time to look at the link below to see the differences between "Breastfeeding Supporters" in order to seek the most appropriate help.
