Serving feeding mothers and their babies throughout North Wales and North West England, I have extensive clinical experience and I am professionally qualified as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Get in touch today to discover how I can help make the feeding process less stressful with sympathetic advice and support.

How Do I Support You?

Antenatal Consultation

Are you expecting a baby and planning to breastfeed? Having the right information and support greatly increases your chances of getting breastfeeding off to a good start and can help identify and manage any anticipated challenges that occur in the early days, including:
  • Sore Nipples
  • Low Milk Supply
  • Engorgement
  • Slow Weight Gain
Having a one-to-one consultation to devise an individualised plan during the antenatal period will be beneficial, especially if:
  • You Have Had Breast Surgery
  • Your Previous Breastfeeding Experience Didn’t Go Quite to Plan and You Wish for a Personalised Plan to Help Improve Your Next Breastfeeding Journey
  • You Have Any Medical Conditions That May Hinder Getting off to a Good Start
  • You Have Family or Know Someone Who Struggled with Breastfeeding, and Want to Try and Avoid a Similar Situation Occurring
  • You Have Read Articles That Concern You
After your baby is born, you will receive a courtesy call to give you telephone support and a home visit can be arranged.

Postnatal Consultation

Congratulations on the birth of your baby! I can help you with a range of breastfeeding challenges, including:
  • Latching Difficulties
  • Sore Nipples
  • Low Milk Supply
  • Thrush and Mastitis
  • Recurring Engorgement or Oversupply
  • Expressing
  • Feeding Twins
  • Slow Weight Gain
  • Returning to Work

Tongue Tie

If you are experiencing issues with breastfeeding or bottle feeding, the underlying problem may be the presence of a restrictive frenulum under your baby’s tongue, often referred to as a tongue tie.
During your consultation, I can perform an oral examination and assess the mobility or restriction of your baby’s tongue. If the frenulum is restricting tongue mobility and contributing to your challenges, I can perform a division. A full explanation of the procedure will be given to you beforehand, as well as your partner if they are present before the division of the frenulum.
After the procedure is complete, I offer further services to help you optimise feeding. You will receive a courtesy call within the week and further support can be given over the phone, or a second consultation arranged if required.
