I worked as Infant Feeding Support Midwife at my local NHS Trust before taking my passion further by training as an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love to access my educational background in Biology and Midwifery to give guidance and make care plans based on the latest evidence available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have followed gentle, child led techniques with my own children and neuroscience and developmental psychology greatly inform my practice. I aim to provide a judgement-free experience and to meet you where you are in whatever stage of the breastfeeding or chestfeeding journey you are in.
