“Welcoming a new baby is the most amazing feeling in the world, but it can also feel daunting and overwhelming. I support parents every step of the way from preparing for birth and getting feeding off to a good start, to assessing tongue ties and helping with unsettled babies so you and your baby feel confident, cared for, and supported throughout this journey.” Melissa
