What Our Clients Say
As first time parents they didn’t make you feel stupid for not knowing everything. They made us feel more informed. I also like the fact that if you chose not to have the division you would be part refunded- something not alot of places offer. Thanks Ladies!
Their knowledge in the field of babies, lactation, and feeding is truly exceptional. Every piece of advice they gave was thoughtful, evidence-based, and tailored specifically to my son’s needs. They didn’t just resolve the immediate issue — they also guided me through feeding support and even recommended other procedures he might benefit from, which showed how deeply they care about long-term wellbeing rather than quick fixes.
Most importantly, they have such a calming presence. Whenever I felt worried or unsure, they reassured me with kindness and confidence, and that emotional support meant the world during a stressful time. Their gentle approach with my son was beautiful to witness, and it was clear they treat every baby as if they were their own.
Their service is absolutely worth every penny we spent, and I am beyond grateful for everything they’ve done for our family. If you’re considering support for your baby, you truly could not be in better hands.
They booked us in within 24 hours which was great, they also came out to us in our own home. This made us and baby really comfortable. They brought all their equipment with them to carry out all the checks.
They were also very particular with hygiene and infection control. They washed their hands and used gloves, all equipment was sterlisied.
Would definitely recommend them to everyone!
Thank you for your knowledgeable support at short notice. I’m thrilled that I’ve been able to continue exclusively breastfeeding our baby and enjoy the unique special bond with our baby girl that this brings.
From the outset, she demonstrated exceptional clinical expertise and empathy. Her thorough assessment of our baby’s feeding difficulties and clear explanation of tongue-tie and its implications were both reassuring and informative. She created a calm and supportive environment, allowing us to feel confident in the decision-making process.
The frenulotomy procedure was carried out with professionalism and sensitivity. They ensured we were fully informed about the procedure, its risks and benefits, and post-procedure care. Her gentle approach and attention were deeply appreciated.
Paula was always very approachable and we were grateful for the positive impact this had on both our baby’s wellbeing and our overall feeding experience.
We felt fortunate to have had Paula as part of the team that provided us with such high-quality, person-centred care.

Tongue Tie Explained
What Is Tongue Tie?
Tongue tie occurs when the strip of tissue beneath a baby’s tongue is shorter or tighter than usual, which can restrict tongue movement.
For some babies, this can affect feeding, making it difficult to latch effectively, transfer milk efficiently, or feed comfortably.
Could My Baby Have Tongue Tie?
Common signs include:
– Difficulty latching
– Clicking sounds during feeding
– Painful breastfeeding
– Poor weight gain
– Reflux-like symptoms
– Long or frequent feeds
If you’re concerned, our specialists can provide a thorough assessment and discuss the most appropriate options for your baby.
