Testimonials
What Families Say
Nothing means more to me than seeing families thrive. Here's what some of the parents I've worked with have shared about their experiences.
"Elizabeth is so kind. From the moment I met her - as a new, nervous & breastfeeding mum - I found her so helpful, supportive, encouraging & gentle. Her way is to walk alongside & build relationship & care, rather than direct or just give advice. This was so empowering to me. After a rocky start with feeding, I met Elizabeth & went on to feed my boy until he was just shy of two years old. Liz was a huge part of supporting me on that journey and I’m so grateful."
— Beth
"Liz has been a massive help during both of my feeding journeys. Her support has been amazing not only during initiation of breastfeeding but also when my babies were older. I wouldn’t have been able to feed for as long as I have without her help!"
— Sophie
"Liz was really supportive throughout my breastfeeding journey. She has a wealth of knowledge and offers evidence-based guidance, which has been helpful overcoming some of the difficulties faced during breastfeeding"
