“I thought breastfeeding would just happen…”

That’s what so many parents tell me. And yet, 8 out of 10 mothers in the UK stop breastfeeding before they wanted to (UNICEF, 2017).

It’s not because they don’t care or don’t want to. It’s because the first days and weeks can feel overwhelming. Sore ni***es, cluster feeds, uncertainty, and conflicting advice. Without the right guidance, confidence can quickly turn to doubt.

In the UK, while 81% of mothers start breastfeeding, by 6–8 weeks that number drops to just 48%. That’s nearly half of parents who wanted to continue but struggled alone.

Here’s the truth: breastfeeding is biological, but it’s also a learned skill. Knowing what’s normal, how to position your baby comfortably, how to recognise effective feeding, and when to ask for help can transform your breastfeeding journey and give you the confidence and reassurance you deserve.

That’s why my Preparing to Breastfeed course exists. Designed for parents in Woking, Guildford, Surrey, and online across the UK, it provides evidence-based guidance, practical skills, and emotional support before baby arrives so you can start your journey with confidence.

That feeling when you walk out of a Preparing to Breastfeed course knowing a family is genuinely set up to smash it 😌✨

Not because breastfeeding will be “easy”.
Not because there won’t be bumps, questions or wobbles.

But because they now understand what’s normal, how milk production actually works, how babies feed biologically, and where to get support before things feel overwhelming.

I see it every time, that shift from “I hope I can do this” to “I know what to expect and I know where to turn.”

That confidence matters.
That preparation matters.
And it can make a huge difference in those early days and weeks.

If you’re pregnant and due soon, or supporting someone who is, my Preparing to Breastfeed course is designed to give you realistic, evidence-based, judgement-free support, not just techniques, but understanding.

💛 Every Drop Counts 💛

Did you know that every single feed you give your baby is packed with incredible benefits? Breastmilk is not just food. It is living, dynamic nutrition. It adapts hour by hour, day by day, to meet your baby’s exact needs.

Inside each drop is a unique mix of antibodies, immune cells, nutrients, hormones, and growth factors all designed specifically for your baby. Your milk changes based on your baby’s age, what they need at that moment, and even the time of day.

That means it is not all or nothing. Even one breastfeed a day provides a powerful boost of nutrition, protection, and comfort that no formula can replicate. Every feed is full of tiny superpowers that help your baby grow, fight infections, and thrive.

If you have breastfeeding or feeding questions, worries, or challenges, I can help. As a certified breastfeeding consultant and feeding specialist, I provide expert breastfeeding support in Woking, Guildford, and surrounding areas in Surrey, as well as online and phone support anywhere in the world.

Breastfeeding is natural… but it doesn’t always come naturally.
And you deserve to feel prepared, confident, and supported from the very start. 💛

My Preparing to Breastfeed course is designed for first-time parents and anyone starting a second or subsequent feeding journey. Maybe breastfeeding didn’t go to plan the first time. Maybe you felt let down by the support you had. Maybe you want this journey to feel calmer, clearer, and more empowered.

The truth is that 8 in 10 parents stop breastfeeding before they wanted to and 99% of the time, it is because of issues that could have been avoided or rectified with the right knowledge, support, and understanding.

In this course, I teach you the real, evidence-based foundations of breastfeeding: what is normal, how milk production actually works, how to know your baby is getting enough milk, how to understand your baby’s biological needs, and how to navigate those early days and months with confidence so your feeding journey feels supported, not stressful.

If you want to feel informed, empowered, and ready… this is for you. ✨

Why Lactose-Free Isn’t the Answer for Almost All Babies…

Most babies aren’t actually lactose intolerant. Lactose is the main carbohydrate in human milk and it’s essential for brain growth, gut development and overall health. Taking it away long term can have a real impact on how babies grow and thrive.

Lactose-free formula is often sold as the answer to wind, reflux or tummy upset, but in reality, this is just another marketing tool.

What is a let-down? 🌟
The let-down reflex is your body’s amazing way of moving milk from your breasts to your baby. It can happen a few times in a feed, sometimes without you even noticing! You might feel a tingling, warmth, or slight fullness, or it can just happen quietly. Gentle breast compressions, your baby’s suckling, or even hearing them cry can trigger another let-down. Every mum’s experience is unique, but it’s all perfectly normal. 💛

For personalised feeding advice, send me a DM and I’ll be happy to help.

Want to avoid a C-section or assisted birth? Start with this.
Most people don’t realise that lying on your back in labour wasn’t designed for safer births. It was created for doctor convenience. Upright, forward and open (UFO) positions can dramatically lower your risk of intervention and help your body work with gravity, not against it.
Birth was never meant to be flat, still or controlled. It was instinctive, supported and powerful. When you move, squat, lean or kneel, your pelvis opens, your baby can descend more easily and labour can progress more smoothly.
If you want a better chance of a straightforward, physiological birth, your position matters more than you think.
✨ I teach all of this (and so much more) in my antenatal and hypnobirthing course launching next year. Follow to stay updated and get on the waitlist.
