What we do
PHILOSOPHY
As a midwife, lactation consultant & mum of three, I am passionate about providing high-quality pregnancy and postnatal support in the local community, relaxed & sociable classes, and offer a totally personalised approach to my care. I am here to mindfully support you through your journey from pregnancy to mama.

IBCLC - LACTATION CONSULTANT
As a Lactation Consultant I am welcoming appointments in my Infant Feeding Clinic to support you in your feeding journey - whatever that looks like for you, and at any stage. This clinic is opening in the centre of Thame on 18th September 2025. Please book appointments on Thursdays.
Perhaps breastfeeding hurts, you are having trouble with latching, you have nipple damage, you are combining breastfeeding and bottle feeding, you are spending time pumping, or worrying about supply, you would like to try different positions, or to plan for your return to work, perhaps you would like to wean and aren't sure how..... Through in-depth, personalised support, I am passionate about helping you to feel positive, confident and to have the practical techniques you need. Head to my booking page to find out the options and what is included.
Antenatal Consultations also available.
BIRTH PREPARATION & HYPNOBIRTHING CONSULTANCY
I have been teaching the KG Hypnobirthing method since 2017... and there are many of my own Becoming Mama additions now included in my teaching. This has now evolved into bespoke Birth Preparation sessions - which can include Hypnobirthing techniques if you wish.
As a Midwife, Antenatal teacher and Hypnobirthing teacher, my passion is to support women in their choices and preparation for birth. Every pregnancy is unique, and your thoughts, previous experiences, worries and opinions matter. I am independent from any NHS Trust, and so am not bound by their (differing) guidelines and processes, enabling me to totally align myself to you as an individual.
Sessions could be focussed on your birth plan (and how to make it achievable), relaxation techniques, working on personal fears, preparing for any of homebirth, induction of labour, CSection or a birth outside of guidelines, debriefing on a previous birth experience and how to move forward to your next, navigating the time period of being "overdue", or indeed a full Hypnobirthing course.
LIMITED AVAILABILITY - Please contact me to discuss dates.
BABY MASSAGE
Becoming Mama offers a nurturing 6-Week baby massage course, designed to help promote bonding with your baby, give you the skills to massage with confidence, and to become part of your postnatal support network. The course is baby-led, welcoming, and can provide emotional and practical support after any birth experience. Suitable from 6 weeks - 6 months.
Massage oil, Handout & WhatsApp group included.
All public courses held in Haddenham.
Gift Vouchers now available - contact me directly to purchase.
