Home Consultations

Best4bubs offer support for any breastfeeding problems, and also support for families with babies experiencing difficulties with Gastro Oesophageal Reflux (GOR) and sleep & setting. I am a experienced Registered Nurse, Lactation Consultant and a Child & Family Health Nurse who can assist and advise in all aspects of maternal, infant health and normal development.

Best4bubs provide a local face-to-face consultation in your own home at a time convenient to you within the Macarthur Area (NSW) to personally address any breastfeeding /baby issues.

Please set aside at least one and a half hours for an initial consultation. A relaxed atmosphere and plenty of time is imperative for a thorough observation and the chance to master effective breastfeeding skills.
The time you spend breastfeeding your baby deserves to be quality time; unhurried and enjoyable. The consultation will take place at or around when a
feed is due for your baby or toddler in during the daytime.

I will explain the basics of breastfeeding to you and make sure you feel comfortable with any new concepts before it is initiated side-by-side with you. I hope to empower you, the parent, with the skills and confidence to get your baby to feed well at the time of the consultation. Other information can covered at the time of the consultation including rationales for steps in breastfeeding well /sleep & settling/ daily routine, developmental information for your baby’s stage, troubleshooting information for common situations and the simplest cues for dads’ and grandparents!

After personally assessing your individual problems I will prepare a ‘Breastfeeding Plan’ of step by step information for you which is covered during the consultation.

The service is available Monday to Friday, from 9am – 5pm. (Outside these hours by special arrangements only).

At your request, a report can be sent to your healthcare practitioner.
