Lactation Consultant Locators & Recommendations

[samy114]

Can anyone recommend a lactation consultant on the Central Coast or Sydney? I have only been able to locate one consultant on the Coast and when I rang I was told her books were closed.

I saw Pinky McKay too and she was fabulous. The hospital LCs I saw were good and helped a little but Pinky was the first person to stop putting more work on me (like expressing every 3 hours including overnight) and actually asked about my health! She gave the simpliest tips which were perfect in the state I was in... and they worked!

Can anyone recommend a lactation consultant in the Sydney inner west area (Ryde, Gladesville, Strathfield area), please? Really need to get someone to see my sister who is a new mum and struggling with breastfeeding. It's really mucking up her confidence.

summers mum, if Barb doesn't get on, a good idea is to phone the local ABA hotline & get a name of a local LC. I did that and it changed our lives , check Kelly's link above, because they are the best LC's.

In the link Australian Lactation Consultants Association Ltd - ALCA - Find a Lactation Consultant there is one in East Ryde

Again, I would highly recommend Pinky McKay. She is brilliant

If you google her, it will bring up her website with all her contact details.
