After struggling with incredible pain feeding my newborn I found Leonies details on the breastfeeding associations site. She came the day after we got out of hospital and was a godsend! She was professional and caring while addressing technique and feeding schedules. She is also a midwife and nurse so she knows her stuff. Leonie provided help sheets and a personalized plan for us. Then she followed up via email and post which was great to have as I had forgotten some of the info. Unfortunately my struggles continued due to poor latching however with her constant phone support I preserved and am still breastfeeding my baby at almost 6 months later. Honestly, it is her help that kept me going and now my bub has had the best start in life. Her fees are very reasonable and she gets it done promptly to avoid a big bill, so worth the money. I could also claim lots back from my private health fund as she is a midwife....some consultants aren't. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to breastfeed!

Approximate cost: $70/hr
