What I Help With

Common concerns

You don’t need to have everything figured out to book care. Many families reach out because something simply doesn’t feel right  and that’s enough.

I commonly support families with:


Lactation and Feeding Support

  • Painful latch or nipple pain
  • Concerns about milk supply 
  • Engorgement, blocked ducts, or mastitis support
  • Frequent feeding or cluster feeding 
  • Pumping challenges or flange fitting (in clinic) 
  • Bottle refusal or bottle-feeding support 
  • Combination feeding questions
  • Supplementation decisions 

Newborn Care & Routines

  • Understanding normal newborn behaviour
  • Establishing gentle, realistic routines in the early weeks 
  • Soothing a fussy or unsettled baby 
  • Sleep expectations and day–night patterns 
  • Feeding transitions

Postpartum Recovery & Transition

  • Emotional and physical adjustment after birth 
  • Feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or anxious 
  • Support following a difficult or traumatic birth or feeding experience 
  • Care that centres both parent and baby

Practical In-Home Support

  • Hands-on newborn care support in your own space
  • Light housekeeping and simple meal preparation as needed
  • Support that helps ease the mental load during early postpartum
     

No referral required. Care is evidence-based, non-judgmental, and centred on you and your baby — offered in your home, or virtually.

Postpartum & Newborn Support

I offer practical lactation support to help families navigate feeding during the early postpartum period. Drawing on my clinical experience as a mother–baby nurse, I provide calm, practical guidance with latch and positioning, milk supply concerns, pumping, feeding transitions, and newborn feeding behaviours. Care is focused on helping parents feel supported, steady, and confident in their feeding journey.
