Testimonials

“I got in touch with Julia after my daughter was discharged from NICU following a six week stay. Up until then I’d been expressing milk but I’d been given the green light to breastfeed. My little one struggled to latch and I found Julia online.

Julia took the time to get to know us and understand all the issues we faced. She was patient and made both me and the baby feel at ease immediately.

Within the first visit, she helped the baby to latch for the first time ever. I was full of emotions as I wasn’t sure that this would ever be possible for us!

Julia stayed in touch after that and I asked her back a few weeks later for a little more hand holding and trouble shooting.

Julia was amazing – calm, confident, knowledgeable and able to make you feel comfortable straight away. Without her I don’t think we would have been able to start our breastfeeding journey.

“Julia has become our family member over the time we’ve known each other. I am a first-time mother and everything, every sound, every giggle, every bite – everything was new and unknown to me and quite scary sometimes.

It is with Julia’s help and support that I now feel confident in my choices. I now know what to do and what to expect at every milestone that my baby boy hits. Julia has helped us through some very stressful situations and gave and keeps giving the advice essential to keep my mind at peace.

Julia is a fantastic person, our son, my husband and I absolutely adore her and feel very lucky to have met her and to have her to guide us in this exciting journey of parenthood!

I recommend her to everyone I know. Please do get in touch and you will so happy that you did!”

We worked with Julia when our baby was just a few weeks old, and her support has been incredible in helping us establish a feeding routine and to get some much needed rest. Julia initially came to help with breastfeeding problems. She was very kind, nurturing and calm, taking me through various positions to deal with a challenge that we’ve been having.

Her advice was useful and tailored, but didn’t pressure me to do things a certain way. After this, Julia also came to us as a night nanny, for which we are still endlessly grateful. She spent the entire night taking care of our three-month old, feeding, changing nappies, and providing comfort, so that our baby didn’t cry at all!

I felt confident that my baby is safe with Julia, which allowed me to finally get some sleep.
