About Nurtured Lactation
I’m Polly and I’m here to support you throughout your breastfeeding journey by providing preparation during pregnancy and personalised breastfeeding support after birth. Breastfeeding can present many challenges, and receiving the right support can greatly impact the health and well-being of both you and your baby.
With a calm, gentle, and nurturing approach, combined with my expertise and experience, I aim to make you feel understood, supported, and self-assured as you continue on your feeding journey. I work as a Midwifery Specialist in Lactation at a Sydney hospital and offer private in-home consultations across Northern Sydney, as well as Telehealth appointments
