Lou has been amazing at building my confidence as a first time mum who felt completely clueless! Calming my worries, answering questions and showing me how to be much more comfortable feeding!

Lou has been absolutely fantastic! Very skilled, patient and approachable. I had a very complicated breastfeeding journey, including a severe tongue tie, mastitis and cracks, and she has been very helpful and supportive all along, really going the extra mile to help me. She also always made sure that whatever she suggested was the best fit for me. I felt really supported all along. Highly recommend her!

Lou has been an incredible support for me and my newborn daughter. Her guidance with breastfeeding gave me the confidence I needed, and the baby massage techniques she taught us have really helped with colic. She’s knowledgeable, kind, and truly cares – I’m so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Lou has been an incredible source of help, support and encouragement since we first met her when she led an NCT refresher course for second-time parents. Her honest, practical and empathetic approach was the reason we sought her advice with breastfeeding after our baby was born. She made herself available at very short notice for a home visit and immediately helped us to feel empowered and in control. Lou's guidance stayed with me through pre natal, labour and the post partum period. I'd strongly recommend her to anyone looking for support. Thank you so much Lou xx
