Home visiting service in Melbourne

I offer a home visiting service in Melbourne.    A typical visit would include 

• a thorough assessment of your feeding issues 
• help and support to solve breastfeeding problems
  
• opportunity to consolidate breastfeeding skills
• developing an individual breastfeeding plan in consultation with you

The breastfeeding information I provide is current and evidence based.  Ongoing support can be provided by phone, SMS, email, SKYPE or return visit.

What I can help you with 

Postnatal

• Positioning and attachment difficulties
• Sore nipples
• Low/over-supply
• Slow weight gain
• Breast refusal

• Mastitis, blocked ducts, thrush
• Expressing breastmilk
• Fussy babies
• Nipple shields
• Understanding and parenting your newborn

Antenatal

I also provide antenatal assistance to increase your breastfeeding confidence before your baby arrives.  You may have had a previous difficult breastfeeding experience and require support when approaching the birth of another baby.
