Welcome to Best Breastfeeding

Best Breastfeeding was started as a family run business dedicated to equipping expectant and new mums with the expertise to breastfeed successfully.

I am a Qualified Midwife and Paediatric Nurse - having trained at the world renowned Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond St, London, U.K. I have over 35 years experience of working with mothers and babies and have successfully breastfed and raised 3 children of my own.

I have witnessed first hand the struggle many mothers have in breastfeeding their babies through lack of confidence, information and encouragement. They are very tired, vulnerable and emotional in the early days, and often become discouraged and discontinue breastfeeding through lack of support.

Many mothers are being discharged from hospital very soon after the birth of their baby and there has also been a reduction in the number of visits provided by a midwife in the 10 days after birth. This has left a huge deficit of regular support and expertise to a new mother learning to breastfeed.

Best Breastfeeding was created after my daughter gave birth to her son. I was shocked and saddened to see how much she was left to cope on her own, with minimal professional time and assistance.

My goal is to give you access to excellent, comprehensive information and advice through these resources, to make breastfeeding a relaxed and pleasurable experience for you and your baby.

My aim is that every mother will have the confidence and enjoyment in breastfeeding their baby and I hope the use of these exceptional products will enable you to achieve this.

Warm wishes
