Feeling overwhelmed, unsure, frustrated, or perhaps you are just looking for friendly, trustworthy, guilt-free, targeted, detailed and relaxed yet comprehensive guidance as you embark, continue, or re-evaluate your breastfeeding journey?
I offer professional, passionate, in-person breastfeeding support and education that is targeted to your goals.
I am available to anyone willing to travel to my location in Alexander Heights, Western Australia.
Or, I will come to you for in-home breastfeeding support if you live in the Perth, Swan Valley, or Joondalup areas. Call or email to schedule an appointment.
Online education and support are also available to anyone, anywhere via Zoom. Email yourbirthingbody@gmail.com to schedule an online consult.
Prior to all scheduled support sessions, basic questionnaire forms may be emailed for you to fill out and return prior to the appointment. This allows me to review your concerns and pertinent information regarding them prior to the appointment.
