I am Catherine, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)

I  have worked with families and babies for over 30 years.  As a registered Children's Nurse I have practiced as a Neonatal Nurse for the past twelve years caring for the most vulnerable babies born prematurely or poorly.

Feeding your baby can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when things don’t go as expected. I provide evidence-based support to help you feel informed, reassured and more confident on your feeding journey.

​

I offer personalised lactation support both during pregnancy and throughout the early weeks and months after your baby’s birth. In the antenatal period, we can prepare for feeding by discussing breastfeeding, expressing colostrum and planning for the early days with your newborn. After birth, I support families with breastfeeding, expressing, combination feeding and bottle feeding while protecting milk supply. I also help with common challenges such as latch difficulties, painful feeding, low milk supply, slow weight gain, unsettled feeding behaviour, breast refusal and bottle refusal. I work with you to find solutions that feel manageable and right for your family.

What Parents are Saying...

"Catherine gave breastfeeding advice to us for our 6 month old premature baby as she specialises in that area. She is a passionate, reliable, punctual, yet flexible professional with very good communication skills and a wealth of experience. I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone."

Angela, Surrey

"Catherine helped my 5 week old baby who was severely tongue tied and born 3 weeks early breastfeed after one consultation - when no other clinic or the hospital were able to assist me. I can not recommend Catherine enough and I am eternally grateful for her patience, support and guidance to get him breastfeeding. Thank you so much Catherine."

Charlotte, Surrey

"Catherine was absolutely amazing helping me with my latch and my positioning. My daughter who is nearly 4 weeks old has been really struggling with feeding and my fast flow. We were both getting distressed. Catherine made me feel at ease and more confident in feeding my baby and it has improved so much."

Megan, Hampshire

"We've just come out for breakfast this morning and I fed him in public for the first time. I would never have imagined being confident enough to do that even a week ago and he latched straight away with no fuss. Honestly so grateful for your help. It's been an absolute game changer for us."

Katharine, Berkshire

"I found my session with Catherine so so useful! She really made me feel at ease with no judgement and wrote a really helpful follow up notes after. Catherine really helped with my confidence for my breast feeding journey. Thank you!"

Alice, Berkshire

"I contacted Catherine Louise when my son was 10 weeks old because I was struggling with his latch and low supply. Thanks to Catherine Louise and her encouragement, I was confident enough to breastfeed my son despite still needing to supplement some of his feeds. My only regret is that I waited so long to get help. I’m sure that Catherine Louise’s support earlier on would have improved my supply even more."

T, Berkshire

"Catherine has been so helpful and supportive since the arrival of our baby boy. She has helped us enormously."

Ciosa, Hampshire

“I cannot recommend Catherine highly enough. When I was really struggling with breastfeeding my two-week-old daughter and worrying about her weight gain, I felt overwhelmed and unsure of myself. Catherine completely changed that.
She was incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable, and most importantly, she gave me the confidence I desperately needed. After just one session together, we were able to establish breastfeeding successfully. Her guidance was clear, practical, and empowering.
I’m so grateful for her support during such a vulnerable time. Thank you, Catherine, for making such a positive difference in our journey!”

Ildikó, Berkshire

"After a very rocky and painful start to breastfeeding I reached out to Catherine after one particularly bad week. She was able to see me quickly and provide much needed support with my positioning. She was very reassuring and knowledgeable, answered my many questions and provides a summary after the visit which is really helpful. Thank you so much for your support and now my breastfeeding journey can continue pain free."

Emma, Berkshire
