    Hi , I have recently relocated my mobile Lactation Consulting business to the Sutherland Shire. I would love to help any new mums with breastfeeding concerns in their own homes.I am a certified IBCLC, RN and a Child & Family Nurse.

    I am looking for a LC in the Logan area. I have been on the IBCLC site and the closest is the Gold Coast and Redlands.

    I'll see if I can find out for you Bek. Have you contacted the Redlands one to see if she would cover Logan as well? It's not very far on the Gateway.

    Hi,

    These ladies all come highly recommended. Robyn has a clinic - she's very worth the drive. It's usual that LCs will come to you in your own home

    best $120 I have spent on bubs!

    I can HIGHLY recommend Jill Bruce in SA. She came to my house on the day I rang (in tears) and spent 90 minutes with us during a feed. She gave clear practical advice and showed my what I was doing wrong and why what she was saying was going to work.

    The result was my poor bleeding stumps of nipples are now healing and instead of breaking into a sweat at the thought of feeding I am actually beginning to relax and maybe even enjoy it!

    Hi was wondering if anyone can recommend a good LC on Brisbanes Northside?

    After failing dismally BF'ing with the twins i am hoping to do better this time. Does anyone know if a LC will come and see you pre birth and at the hospital after birth? Hoping to get started correctly this time.

    Thanks in advance

    I can HIGHLY recommend Kate Hale, she will come to your home and services North Shore of Sydney and inner west. Kate has been an absolute gem, I took up her new mum package 5 sessions for $880. She not only provides invaluable lactation advice but also advice on routines, massage and all things baby. The thing about Kate is she had supply issues so is very empathetic to mums in this situation...

    Kate also has a new DVD coming out soon, she was highly reccomended to me from my obstitrition (Gil Burton).

    Her number is (02) 9416 4386.

    Any recommendations for a LC in Perth (I'm SOR)? I've found a few, but would prefer to get someone who has been recommended.

    where exactly are you? I've heard good things about Cathy Garbin, but I think she's quite far south.
    I'm only personally familiar with the ones out East, but any on the LCANZ or LactationWest websites would probably be good to talk to. In the eastern hills areas Sharon Perrella, Jenny Lyn, Shaughn Leach are all great.

    I was going to say Joy... I've heard many good things about her from her ABA involvement.

    Re: Lactation Consultant Locators & Recommendations

    Sorry you're having so many issues hon, sounds a lot like my (very trying) start with DD2. I used Kate McDougal with both my girls and she was truly amazing, my lifesaver! Not sure if she does private visits these days but will PM her number to you anyway. She works at SJOG Subi as an LC too. I BF both my girls til 11 and 13 months and I've honestly got Kate to thank for that. She saw me at both my SOR & NOR homes Will PM you now
