WELCOME
Meet Sarah, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Registered Midwife, and a proud mother of two.
Let's empower your breastfeeding experience together.
About Sarah
With over six years of experience caring for women and babies throughout the antenatal, intrapartum, and postnatal period, she's encountered and assisted various breastfeeding challenges from latching difficulties to low supply, engorgement, mastitis/blocked ducts, nipple trauma, breast refusal, and infant weight concerns.
Sarah is also qualified as a Neuroprotective Developmental Care (NDC) Practitioner also known as the Possums' Program. The 'Possums' approach is a gentle, evidence-based approach grounded in neuroscience; working with each family’s individual values offering practical help with issues with feeding, sleep and unsettled behaviour or cry-fuss problems.
Sarah brings a wealth of experience and compassion to your breastfeeding experience. She's here to share her knowledge, educate you about breastfeeding, and fully support your feeding choices and plans.
Located in the Bass Coast and South Gippsland region, Sarah offers in-home appointments for your convenience and comfort. Having walked the path many of you are about to embark on, she's uniquely positioned to guide you on your breastfeeding journey.
My Approach
I specialise in a gentle and individualised approach tailored to your unique feeding and parenting goals.
In every consultation, my goal is to empower you, providing you with the knowledge and confidence to begin your breastfeeding journey with ease and comfort.
Through continuous support, we'll work together to apply small yet impactful adjustments that can make a world of difference when applied in the right moment and in the right way.
My mission is to help you achieve the best possible breastfeeding experience ~ whatever that means for you and your baby.
I look forward to meeting you, your family and precious little one. Let's embark on this journey together.
