Maternity Leave
Incase you hadnt heard the news, I will be taking a 'break' from private IBCLC work at the end of October 2024 until about June 2025 - for maternity leave!
Expecting our 3rd little miracle end of November - jumping back into the land of 3rd trimester now and preparing for postpartum, to be rested and nourished! Il be right by your side!
Last day of clinic will be October 24th and then Il be tidying up odd ends to (fingers crossed!) have some down time for last minute preparations and soaking up the end of pregnancy, before launching my online BF prep workshop (soooo excited to finally offer this!).
No concrete plans at this stage on when Il return but aiming for June 2025.
I will list other IBCLC's of who to see locally and also if you jump on the LCANZ website you can search your area.
Also the Australian Breastfeeding Association are a great free service too.
All Mumma's to be or Mumma's in the postpartum space welcome to come and join in - very casual, very chill and non judgy. Welcoming everyone while we all walk our own paths!!
Realising we are not alone, there is a community out there walking alongside of us is a big one!
These picnics are co hosted with Skye from Hypnobirthing with Skye, Sarah from Body Work for Birth and myself - who all deeply and authentically care for women all on kinds of journeys - while respecting choice!
Pregnant?!
Want to learn more about breastfeeding before baby is in your arms?
You have come to the right place!
Breastfeeding doesn't have to, nor should it hurt. But it does take practice and more practice. Prior preparation really does set you up for making informed choices all the way through labour and birth and into breastfeeding so that you can have a positive and empowering experience. Often birth gets all the prep work, but breastfeeding is apart of the duo!
Joining this workshop is such a proactive, practical way to prepare as much as you can for the journey ahead!
All workshops are on Saturday mornings 9am - 12noon.
Now LIVE and able to be purchased via online membership!

We put so much emphasis on learning how to take care of your baby through pregnancy and birth BUT what happens when your baby arrives? When you have a hungry baby in your arms and needs feeding every few hours? (yes this is normal!)
-
Whilst breastfeeding is natural, it doesn't always come easy!
-
It takes lots of practice, the right education, support, positioning and knowing your baby to get it all right.
This face to face workshop is here to help you feel confident, informed and educated from the first moment with your baby + right through into the weeks and months ahead of your parenthood journey.
Ideally I love for partners to join in as well, as they absorb information differently and can help you recall later. Also they are your champions and your biggest support, so it only makes sense to have them join in on learning how to best promote breastfeeding.
