About Me

The birth of my first child in 2012 set me on a mission that has continued ever since:

to provide better support for anyone wishing to feed their child their own milk.

​

My philosophy:

Everyone has different goals for feeding their babies. If you want breastfeeding to be part of your story, I can help. 

 

I want to work with you to find out what you and your baby need and want, and support and empower you to find a way to make that happen. 

​

My Experience:

I qualified as breastfeeding peer supporter with the Association of Breastfeeding Mothers in 2013, and followed up by becoming a Breastfeeding Counsellor in 2015.

I have volunteered ever since on the National Breastfeeding Helpline and at local NHS breastfeeding support groups.

I sat my IBCLC exams in 2021, having accumulated the necessary 1000+ hours of supporting families.

I also provide free support weekly at It Takes A Vilage in Crystal Palace www.ittakesavillagecp.org
