• IGT
• Premmie baby – in hospital/at home
• Twins
• Preparing for a return to work/ expressing plans
• Gentle weaning plans

What you need is a well lit, comfortable space with good wifi connection.

As we only have a short period of time I will request you complete your intake set up/consent forms prior to our consult.

Prior to consult  I will ask that specific video/photo’s of your baby need to be taken and sent through prior to our consultation along with completing my history form.

During the consultation discuss findings of video/photos observe a feed, provide information to assist with latch and also creating a treatment/breastfeeding plan.

The aim is for me to see a feed if possible, so it is often beneficial to have a spare pair of hands to film your current situation if required.

Follow up support via phone/email for 2 weeks is included.
