Abi Barham Lactation Support
About Abi Barham Lactation Support
I am an IBCLC, Registered Paediatric and Neonatal Nurse and Mum of two girls.
I have a passion for holistic lactation support, meeting families right where they are in their feeding journey, acknowledging and embracing individual needs and goals for navigating feeding, both short and long term.
I love working one-on-one, and I usually conduct home visits to bring support right to your door. As well as my private practice, I still work part-time in NICU, supporting families in the very earliest, vulnerable and precious days after birth, which is such a privileged job that I truly adore.
My approach is always to listen, to bring kindness as well as experience to your situation, along with a big dose of cheerleading!
