Helping Breast Feeding Newborn(s) Integrate into the Family.
Available for breast feeding consultations before and after your baby is born, in the Peterborough Ontario Canada area:
Monday to Friday
1000 am to 7 pm
By appointment only Sat/Sun.
Receipts Given
Please do not hesitate to submit receipts to your health plan under "other". I am a certified professional with a certificate number that IBCLC support is important in the first month. The improved health status of all Moms and Babies who have any breast milk has been researched and proven to be true.
Please call to make your appointment at 705-761-2838. Each appointment will be a minimum of 1 hour but may extend to more than that if breast feeding difficulties occur. I meet you and your newborn at your home, no need to go anywhere!
Prior to your baby's arrival I am available to discuss what to expect in the first 2 weeks. This is a good way to meet and get to know how I can help you and your family.
Once your baby arrives, please get a perscription from your Doctor/Paediatrician/Midwife for home nursing assistance. This will include all time and feeding aids needed if you have extended health coverage. My cost without coverage is $80 per visit. My focus is to help mom's and babies have the best breast feeding experience they are able to have.
