Lactation services

- I offer consults of up to 90 mins, normally at the family’s home, so we can really take time to explore what's going on. 

- I'll have a good look at how things are going with your breastfeeding, your baby and you. This typically includes a breast exam and observation of a feed.

- You'll be able to ask me any questions and I'll ask lots of questions too, to help put the pieces together on the clinical history and develop a tailored plan to support you in your feeding goals. 

- This will help to identify adjustments or strategies that might help – we’ll also try these if possible during the consult so you feel confident with the next steps. 

After listening closely to your history, concerns and goals, evaluating you and your baby, and observing your baby nursing, we will develop strategies that take your circumstances, values and needs into account.

The rate for a consult is 3,000 THB. This covers:

- a consult of up to 90mins at your home*.

- detailed follow-up notes with recommendations.

- a week of reasonable follow-up access to me via message to help with any quick questions.

- an optional 30-minute follow-up call within 7 days of the consult to help with any questions and modifications

*My standard area is from Victory Monument to Lad Phrao. If you’re located outside this area, I kindly ask for coverage of my additional travel time and costs: I would calculate that once I know your location so I can advise you up front, before you commit to an appointment. 

Based outside of Bangkok? Or need support on your own schedule? I can help with most issues through a virtual, face-to-face consultation to provide personalised, real-time breastfeeding support.

Get in touch with a brief outline of your issue and I’ll get right back to you to advise whether telehealth will be the right fit.

Many of us have never been around breastfeeding until we find ourselves doing it. A prenatal consultation - individually or in a small group - can help you plan to get nursing off to the best start.

This can help you develop a birth plan (and Plan B) that supports your breastfeeding goals, help you build your supply and feed your baby if your baby needs NICU care, help with any concerns about your breast or nipple anatomy, set you up for breastfeeding if you’ve had breast surgery, or maybe you’re adopting a baby or you’re the non-pregnant parent and would like support to lactate.

Prenatal consultations can usually be done virtually, but I can tailor the service to your needs.

My background in international development brought me to public health and to direct lactation support, and I very much welcome opportunities to support those who want evidence-based information or to co-create solutions. This includes:

• Hospitals looking to update their protocols or to pursue BFHI accreditation.

• Employers establishing a enabling workplace for your breastfeeding employees.

• (I)NGOs and policy makers seeking technical specialist input.

• Journalists‍ looking for specialist input or fact-checking support.

Please feel most welcome to contact me.
