"Little Miracles"
Lactation Consultations

How can a Lactation Consultant help me?

 

A lactation consultation is recommended for mothers and babies who are experiencing difficulties with breastfeeding, or who simply need some extra support and reassurance.

​

!Do not accept any pain or discomfort during breastfeeding!

​

Breastfeeding can be challenging but it should be joyful for mother and baby.

​

If you are experiencing any problems or discomforts when breastfeeding your baby, then look for help from a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)

(IBCLC: International Board Certified Lactation Consultant)

All my consultations include a back-up email with summary of consultation, care plan and advice, provided to you within 24h following your consultation and a follow-up phone call on the 2nd day following your consultation.

​

"Little Miracles" offers private lactation consultations to families living in the South Dublin / North Wicklow area.

If you do not live within my catchment area or if I am not available to see you, you can find an other lactation consultant here at ALCI: the Association of Irish Lactation Consultants

TO BOOK YOUR CONSULTATION CALL ME ON 0876457489 OR CLICK LINK BELOW FOR BOOKING ENQUIRY.

​

In order to help your lactation consultation proceed as smoothly as possible, you will be asked to fill in an online "Intake & History Form" & "Consent For Care Form" which will be emailed to you after your booking request is confirmed. Don't worry if you don't get a chance to complete this form or if you leave some questions blank, we will discuss everything during the consultation. Gathering some background information will save some time during the consultation with more time left for breastfeeding observation, guidance, and advice.

​

​

! Remember: Don't accept pain when breastfeeding, look for help!
