Personalised Breastfeeding Support

Sometimes you need more than information. You need someone to sit with you, understand what’s happening and help you work through it. Sarah provides personalised, evidence based lactation support in a calm and non judgemental environment, helping you feel informed, confident and supported in the choices that are right for you and your baby.

Clinic Consults

Clinic consults provide a safe, welcoming space where you can talk openly about your breastfeeding goals and challenges. Every parent’s journey is unique, and I’ll work with you to find practical solutions and gentle guidance tailored to your needs. Whether you’re feeding for the first time or looking for extra support, you’ll find care that meets you where you are.

Home Consults

If you prefer the comfort of your own home, I can bring my support to you. The early days with a new baby can be overwhelming, and travelling isn’t always easy. Home consults allow you to receive expert lactation care in a familiar, relaxed setting, so you can focus on your baby and your recovery.

Virtual Consultations

For flexibility and convenience, The Milky Days also offers virtual consultations. Whether you have a few questions, need help with specific feeding concerns, or want ongoing reassurance, online sessions provide professional guidance and compassionate care wherever you are.

WHY DO WE ONLY SPEND TIME

PREPARING FOR LABOUR?

Labour can last a few days at most.. and then it is all over. Breastfeeding can be the long haul! But breastfeeding doesn’t need to be overwhelming, stressful or painful.

If you start preparing for breastfeeding in pregnancy, you can overcome the common barriers that many breastfeeding mothers will come up against.

Schedule a Consultation

Every breastfeeding journey is different. If you'd like one on one guidance, Sarah offers clinic, home and virtual consultations tailored to you and your baby.
