Bespoke Lactation Plan for Your Unique Journey
Personalised Toolkit Specific to Your Individual Needs
Contact me to book and give me a little bit of information about your current situation-just a few simple points that give me an idea of what challenges you are up against. I will make an individualised plan with tips/tricks and tools that I think will be helpful, and bring this with me to our first meeting.
This way the progress that you make won't just be limited to our meetings. You can save your toolkit on your phone so when it's just you and your baby at 3am, you'll have all of our plan right at your easy to read disposal.
