Testimonials

Thank you for a very informative and motivating workshop. I was very pleased how you were very real about the topic of breastfeeding and yet very supportive and encouraging at the same time. I do feel better equipped to undergo breastfeeding once baby is born!

Thank you,
Samantha


Dear Katherine,

I am so thrilled to be able to tell you that our precious Megan Grace is finally feeding like a little trooper!

What an emotional roller coaster the last 3 weeks have been - and it has been a journey that I would not have been able to weather without your incredible kindness and support. Thank you for your wonderful workshop, which cemented for me the importance of breast feeding and gave me the will and determination to get it right.

Penny's full letter is a great beginners breastfeeding story...


The breastfeeding is going really well and she is latching briliantly and I have loads of milk. She picked up 350gr in the first 5 days after leaving hospital and 180gr in the second week.

Thanks again for your very enjoyable workshop and I will recommend you to my friends prior to their little one's arrival.

Keep well,
Nicola


Thanks for a fantastic workshop.Having struggled with breastfeeding my other two children, your workshop really dispelled all the bad advice I had been given. I now feel confident to stand my ground and do what I know is right to successfully breastfed. I also feel empowered to be able to give my patients the correct advice and help them breastfeed successfully. Thanks again for a great workshop. I would strongly recommend this for all mothers.

Hi Katherine,

Chloe is doing amazingly well. She weighed in at 2.73kg (from her birth weight of 2.62Kg) at the clinic, so the breast feeding is definitely working! And thanks again so much for taking the time and care to help me in what I thought was an absolute crisis!!! I really appreciated the personal attention and will recommend you highly to anyone I come across who is expecting a baby!......

Warm regards,
Shelley


....I have been wanting to write and thank you so much for your fantastic breastfeeding workshop..I can report that things are going really well...The information you provided me with was so much more than I knew from my first experience of breastfeeding, and I was so pleased you treated me like a normal person and not like a medical professional.

I felt so positive about the breastfeeding when I went in for the caesar and was determined to make it work. The info you gave me kept me going in hospital. I didn't get very much help in hospital, and I also got lots of conflicting advice. I latched within the first hour I think. I struggled initially with my latch again. But I just persevered and applied what you told me, and ignored the rest! And although my nipples did suffer the first couple of days - I knew what to do to make it better and how to improve my latch...So it's been 2 weeks, the feedings are more like 2 - 3 hourly now, and no formula ...Thank you so much. I have been thinking about you and singing your praises for weeks now. I really appreciate all your help, and I hope things carry on like this.
