Breastfeeding

Me and my baby had great support from Sally. I always wanted to breastfeed my baby but i was 1 month in..and looked impossible. We had Sally over and showed us few easy positions for us and also did a plan. She always checked on us via whatsup to see the progress.Thank you Sally

Kind and wise, essential support for a frazzled new Mum!

We called on Sally the day after discharging ourselves from hospital (one night post c-section), having had a less than ideal start with feeding our daughter. Our baby was diagnosed with a tongue tie and recessed chin at the hospital and we were struggling with latching her to the breast as well as my milk supply. Sally was a wonderfully calm and reassuring presence, sharing her expert knowledge, carefully considering our situation and getting to know both myself without any judgement and our baby to set us up with a feeding plan. Her kind and gentle approach support enabled us to combination feed as we’d hoped and really supported us over WhatsApp in follow up too. We couldn’t have asked for anything better and are so grateful for her support!

1:1 consultation… amazing

Sally came to do a 1:1 consultation with me soon after I came out of hospital with my son, when I was in intense pain from feeding and very lost in what I should be doing and how to get through. Sally is extremely knowledgeable, soothing, and helped me figure out better positions for feeding, a good latch, and talked me through best practice for pumping. I would not have made it through the first few weeks of breastfeeding without her guidance and support. I highly recommend her - for any moment in your breastfeeding journey.

Incredible, calm knowledgeable breastfeeding support

I very, very highly recommend Baby Thrive and Sally for anyone looking for breastfeeding support. After trouble breastfeeding with my first and a c-section with my second baby, I booked a session with Sally as soon as I was home to proactively support the establishment of breastfeeding. Sally was nothing short of life changing. She came to my home and was instantly warm, kind and made me feel comfortable. She was knowledgeable and helped me to get the latch right, keep my baby awake for feeds, troubleshoot other issues and showed me how to use my breast pump and integrate pumping into my feeding schedule. Because of her, I’m still breastfeeding nearly three months later and plan to continue on as long as I can. She also runs a free breastfeeding cafe in Crystal Palace which is an amazing way to meet other mums and share the struggles/joys of motherhood together. If you’re wondering if you should go for it, just book! It’s worth every penny twice over. I’ve often wondered if Sally could just move in but alas, she has a family and life of her own!!

Highly recommended

Sally was incredibly helpful when she came to visit us and our daughter a week after birth when we were having issues with breastfeeding. She was very calming and approachable, and able to offer quick solutions to some of our initial concerns and questions which made us immediately feel reassured. She was also able to refer our daughter for further treatment for her tongue tie which was a huge relief. We have stayed in touch with Sally since and also attended her breastfeeding cafe sessions, which again were very welcoming and informative.

Highly recommend

I contacted Sally for help when I was struggling to feed after coming home from hospital. She was instantly reassuring and encouraging, and ever since the first meeting she has been providing detailed answers to all my questions. Sally is extremely knowledgeable, kind and calm - I'd wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone wanting advice or support with breastfeeding.

Excellent

Sally’s balanced, gentle and very professional help from when our baby was 2 days old was invaluable to ensure good latching and efficient feeding. Sally’s approach is informative and respectful, she was able to share plenty of resources and precious advice while always leaving the decision on the best course of action to us. Almost 4 months down the line, our baby is still exclusively breastfeeding and showing optimal growth, none of which would have been possible without Sally. We can’t recommend her enough.

Fab service!

I’ve had Sally’s support on a couple of occasions now - both at very short notice and both times she has been fab! Lots of expertise and great knowledge to share and offers lots of great tips to improve the breastfeeding issues we are facing. Thanks Sally!
