Nap-trapped.

One day… ONE DAY… I’ll drink my hot chocolate hot.

Motherhood is basically 90% detective work.
Why are they crying? Hungry? Tired? Wind? Or did they just decide that your left arm is lava but your right arm is life?

The other 10%? Those little wins; the feed where they latch without a fuss, the cuddle that makes the day’s chaos melt away, or actually getting to sip your hot chocolate before it turns into cold chocolate.

If you’re in the thick of it right now, we see you! and we’ve got a few treats to make those rare hot-drink moments even better. You’ll find them over at thelactationstation.co.nz 💕

If you haven’t tried our goodies yet, now’s the perfect time to discover what makes The Lactation Station so special. Supporting breastfeeding, naturally.

✨ Small Moments, Big Wins ✨
This World Breastfeeding Week, we’re celebrating the real, raw, everyday moments of breastfeeding.
The 3am feeds.
The leaky letdowns.
The wins that don’t make it to your camera roll, but mean everything.

It’s easy to focus on the big milestones… but it’s the little things that carry us through 🩷

This one’s for the mums who:
✨ Asked for help
✨ Cried, and tried again
✨ Pumped in the car
✨ Said “this is enough”
✨ Fed their babies with love, in any form

Here’s to you, for showing up, for pushing through, for doing your best. We see you, and you’re doing amazing, mama.

It’s World Breastfeeding Week 🩷

This week isn’t just about celebrating breastfeeding, it’s about recognising how much support parents actually need (because let’s be honest, it can be a lot).

Since taking over The Lactation Station a year ago, we’ve had so many chats with mums in all kinds of feeding seasons; the pumping-all-night crew, the cluster-feeding warriors, the mix feeders, the formula feeders, the “I’m just trying my best” mama (we see you).

And honestly, what we’ve learned is this: feeding is never just about food. It’s emotional, it’s exhausting, it’s full of pressure, and it deserves support, not judgement.

This year’s theme is all about building better support in workplaces and communities. Because no one should feel like they have to choose between feeding their baby and getting on with life.

Here’s to compassion, not comparison
You’re doing a bloody good job.

🌅 Sometimes, as a mama, you just need to take a step back, to watch the little moments unfold, even if it’s just watching your usually energetic little one sitting and staring at the sunset.

From sleepless nights and endless feeds to these quiet, golden moments, the journey is messy, beautiful, and totally worth it.

At The Lactation Station, we’re here to support you every step of the way - with nourishing treats and gentle care made by mums who get it.

Here’s to the calm in the chaos 💛

Not quite back at school… or maybe school’s not even a thing in your house yet. 😅

Whether you're mentally prepping lunchboxes or just trying to remember the last time you showered solo- this one’s for you, mama.

This time of year can feel a bit all over the place. Half the mums are counting down to the school bell, the rest of us are still wondering what day it even is. (Is it still the holidays? Is it bedtime yet?)

One thing we do know: cookies and tea help. A lot.
Whether you need a treat for surviving the school hols, or just five peaceful minutes with a hot cuppa- you’ve earned it.

📸: Our winter survival line-up: Boobie Brew + every flavour of our lactation cookies = the dream team.

📚 School Holidays & Snack Time Chaos? We’ve Got You, Mama 💚

It’s school holidays, which means the snack requests are relentless, the house is somehow messier than usual, and your coffee is still sitting half-full… somewhere.

Whether you’ve got big kids running laps around the lounge or a new little one attached to the b**b 24/7 - or both! - just a wee reminder that you’re doing an incredible job.

At The Lactation Station, we’re all about making this wild season of life a little easier - with nourishing, mama-made treats that support your body while you support your babies.

✨ Made by mums, for mums
✨ Backed by lactation consultants
✨ Delicious enough to hide from the kids (don’t worry, we won’t tell)

Take a deep breath, hide in the pantry for five minutes if you need to, and know we’re cheering you on this school hols.

Things I didn’t know until I became a mum:

• That I’d laugh and cry during nappy changes 😂😭
• That a kind word written on a nappy could be the highlight of my day
• That I’d miss those tiny rolls and squishy thighs one day

If you’ve ever survived a 3am change with one eye open and a half-eaten biscuit in your mouth - this one’s for you 🙌

Our Story

Renee Ball, the founder of The Lactation Station, was born to help others. She began her career as a childcare provider, primarily with newborns. Renee then began studies in Midwifery before becoming a mother herself.

Some would say Renee was destined to be in the baking industry. Her father was one of New Zealand’s top bakers and she worked in the family bakeries from an early age. Although a career in baking was never planned, Renee began making lactation cookies for herself while at home with her baby daughter Honor. With the support of her husband Tim, this is where the journey started.

2.5 years after taking the leap into a NZ registered company, Renee has now taken The Lactation Station nationwide with nearly 100 stockists and is the leading seller in edible lactation products within New Zealand. To follow more of behind the scenes of The Lactation Station and Renee’s journey of Motherhood to soon 2 children follow along on instagram @the_lactation_station.
