They really did go above and beyond to offer support

Posted By Mumx3

"They really did go above and beyond to offer support"

About: Lothian Community Services / Community Maternity Team

(as a service user),

The DEBS team are an incredible support even for a 3rd time breastfeeding mum.

I felt so supported, learnt new things and really appreciated the check-ins after birth to know there was a team of people thinking of me and my little one and there for any help we might need.

All qualified midwives and they really did go above and beyond to offer support and to listen to me. Fantastic resource that without it I'm not sure my breast feeding journey would have been as successful.

Thank so much you DEBS team.

Dear Mumx3

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your lovely feedback about the DEBS team. It was heartwarming to hear how helpful they were and how supported you felt throughout your breastfeeding journey.

I have passed your feedback on to the manager of the team to share with them.

Thank you again
