Antenatal Consultations

Would you like to prepare for breastfeeding before your baby arrives?

Antenatal breastfeeding consultations are designed to get you fully prepared and confident before your baby arrives. We’ll cover everything from positioning and attachment to expressing colostrum, preventing nipple pain and understanding what to expect in those first few days. Whether you plan to exclusively breastfeed, mix feed, or aren't quite sure yet, this session is tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Lactation
Support

Are you finding breastfeeding overwhelming and challenging?

My lactation consultations are designed to help resolve any breastfeeding issues you're facing and guide you toward a pain-free, enjoyable breastfeeding experience. We’ll begin by reviewing your history, assessing your feeding, and discussing your experiences, challenges, and goals. Using baby-led techniques, I’ll create a customised plan that respects your baby’s natural instincts, ensuring a gentle, comfortable approach without ever forcing your baby to the breast.

Sleep
Support

Is sleep a stress in your home? Get support without traditional sleep training.

With so much conflicting advice it can be hard to know what to try. Jess is an infant Neuroprotective Developmental Care Practitioner. She can provide you with evidence-based sleep assistance that is gentle and enjoyable for your family. Following your babies’ cues, no cry it out or strict routines.
