In the UK and Australia, midwives will typically visit you at home during the first few days with a newborn and help you resolve common breastfeeding issues. If they cannot provide the support needed, they will likely refer you to a lactation specialist

• International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) – This is the most comprehensive lactation certification. An IBCLC works independently to help families meet their breastfeeding goals and is an expert in the clinical management of breastfeeding. To become an IBCLC, you must have extensive education and have completed thousands of hands-on clinical hours. IBCLCs are certified by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners.
• Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) or Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (CBS) – Often seen as a stepping-stone to the International Board Certified Lactation Consultant certification, these individuals have completed a specialty training program and certification that helps an individual support breastfeeding parents.

Each visit may vary depending on your needs. However we allocate approximately 90 minutes

No problem. We can provide you a follow-up visit within 24-48 hours to ensure you receive all the support you need, as well as ongoing WhatsApp support

We suggest booking a 3-visit package for more complex feeding issues or concerns such as a preterm or sleepy baby, cracked or damaged nipples, low milk supply etc. 

When booking a Lactation Visit Package, you will be provided a unique code via your confirmation email. From here, you can select your preferred dates and times. You are not required to book all three visits at once. You may return later and use the code again. 

Some insurers will include midwife lactation consultations under Maternity Cover or Baby Health Cover. We will be happy to provide an invoice
