breastfeeding Support Services I Offer

I provide both antenatal teaching and postnatal breastfeeding support so please scroll down to learn more about my services

  • One-to-one antenatal teaching session in your home to prepare you for breastfeeding

    Session up to 2 hours long

    Home Visit: £80

    The session will include:

    - How to get breastfeeding off to the best start after birth

    - Recognising feeding cues / responsive parenting

    - How to position and latch your baby

    - How to assess the quality of a breast feed

    - Typical feeding behaviours of a breastfed infant

    - Common difficulties that may arise and how to address them

    - Q&A session on any specific worries or concerns you have

    As I feel it is very important for the mother to have an informed support system around her whilst establishing breastfeeding, I am happy for any extended family or friends to also be part of the session if they feel the information would enable them to support you better.

    If you have an antenatal session with me and then require any face-to-face postnatal support, there will be a 15% reduction in the cost of your consultation.

  • 2 Hour Postnatal Home Visit

    £125

    These Consultations are ideal for the early days, weeks and months after birth when problems first start to appear. These problems can present as:

    - Difficulty latching your baby

    - Poor weight gain / weight loss

    - Nipple damage / painful feeding

    - Unsettled baby during the feed, after the feed or between feedings

    - Parental or professional concerns about the quality of your baby's breastfeed

    - Parental or professional concerns about the ability of your baby to breastfeed

    - Need for frequent supplementation with formula or expressed breast milk

    I believe a two hour visit is requited to fully meet your needs and my service includes:

    - Taking a birth history

    - Discussing the feeding concerns you have

    - Observation of a feed

    - Tailored education and support in relation to your feeding challenges

    - Written feeding plans / progress plans if required

    - Documentation in your Child's Health Record

    - Written report of our Consultation

    - Liaising with your Midwife / Health Visitor / GP (with your consent) if needed for continuation of support

    - Two weeks follow up support via email and telephone

    If you have been using any feeding aids like bottles or nipple shields I ask that they please be sterilised and ready to use during my visit in case they are needed.

    If you have previously had an antenatal session with me and then require any postnatal support, there will be a 15% reduction in the price of the consultation.

    If more than 1 Consultation is needed there will be a 10% discount for all subsequent bookings.
