Antenatal and Postnatal Package (3 Visits + online support for 10 days)

£500

I will devise a personalised care plan that suits your specific needs. This will include an antenatal visit in the comfort of your own home lasting 60-90 minutes during which you will learn what to expect with normal feeding when the baby is born, how to achieve effective positioning and attachment (how to latch the baby), the importance of skin to skin and how to hand express if necessary.

This will then be followed by two postnatal visits, again in your home, each of which usually lasts 60-90 minutes. Follow up visits (60 - 90 minutes): £100.00 per consultation

Follow-up phone calls and text messages are taken at no additional charge

A visit of up to 90 minutes . I will watch you breastfeed, complete a breastfeeding assessment and I will make a feeding plan that suits you. Usually all that is needed is knowing how to achieve an effective position and latch and knowing what normal breastfeeding is.
