Hi, I'm Rebecca, your dedicated Lactation Consultant.

As an IBCLC Lactation Consultant, I’ve been supporting families with feeding since 2015. Over the years, I’ve provided assistance to hundreds of families facing challenges with feeding their baby. I can provide support for breastfeeding, formula feeding or expressing, and I will NEVER judge you on your feeding choices

HOW IT works

Struggling with feeding?

During a typical home consultation, I take a full clinical history, including the birth, debrief on your feeding journey so far and observe a feed. We can work to improve any latch issues and I can also weigh the baby, if necessary. I will also answer any questions you may have and formulate a plan for moving forward.

I have extensive experience with tongue tie and have previously supported the running of an NHS tongue tie clinic. I can examine the oral cavity and explore further support if we suspect a tongue tie.

Feeding journeys are often a work in progress, and my visit may not be an instant fix. I understand that these things take time. I offer ongoing practical and emotional support for up to two weeks after my visit at no extra cost. Together, we’ll formulate a plan for moving forward.
