My son and I have received support from Jo, infant feeding advisor since he was 4 weeks old. From this initial appointment and throughout our care, Jo has been caring and encouraging. Jo quickly built rapport with us both, she is approachable and non-judgemental. I highly doubt we would have continued breastfeeding without her support. 

I am so grateful to have received input from the infant feeding advisor team. My breastfeeding journey has vastly improved since we were first referred, improving the happiness and wellbeing of both myself and my baby.
