How I can help
Individual Consultations
Antenatal Breastfeeding Consultation
I often hear expectant parents say, “I don’t know if I can do this” or “I wish I knew more before baby arrives.”
Feeling prepared can make a huge difference to your confidence in those early days.
That’s why antenatal sessions are designed to help you feel informed, calm, and ready — so you can approach feeding your baby with knowledge, confidence and realistic expectations.
Together, we’ll explore your goals, discuss what to expect, and build a strong foundation for your feeding journey before your baby arrives.
Up to 90 minutes (face-to-face or online)
- •How breastfeeding works and what to expect in the early days
- •Skin-to-skin and the importance of the first feed
- •Positioning and attachment for a comfortable, effective latch
- •Recognising hunger cues and early feeding signs
- •Understanding milk supply and how it develops
- •Hand expression of colostrum antenatally (if appropriate)
- •How to know if feeding is going well
- •Your personal questions and birth feeding plan
First postnatal lactation consultation
Bringing your baby home can feel beautiful, overwhelming, and at times uncertain. Many parents wonder, “Is this normal?” or “Am I doing this right?”
You don’t need to figure it out alone.
Postnatal consultations provide calm, expert, hands-on support to help you and your baby establish or improve feeding in a way that feels achievable and sustainable for you.
I come to you (or support you online) and we work through everything together, step by step.
Up to 2 hours (face-to-face)
Includes WhatsApp support for 7 days after your consultation for follow-up questions related to your session
Online support available instead of face to face: £100 (up to 60 minutes)
Please note: in some cases, an online consultation may be limited, and a follow-up face-to-face visit might be recommended if a full assessment or hands-on feeding support is needed for the most accurate and effective care. This service does not include Whatsapp support.

Follow-Up Breastfeeding Support Consultation
Breastfeeding is a journey, and sometimes you need extra reassurance, guidance, or small adjustments along the way. Whether you want to check in on your progress, refine positioning, or talk through new challenges, follow-up support helps you continue feeling confident and supported as you move forward.
This session is designed for families who have already had an initial postnatal consultation with me and need continued, tailored support.
