About Little Bubs

I have had the very great privilege of working with mums, bubs and families since 1998, initially as an Australian Breastfeeding Counsellor where I supported families at local groups and with phone breastfeeding counselling. 

I completed my midwifery at Newcastle University and the John Hunter Hospital in 2003 and then went onto work in both Scone and Muswellbrook Maternity units, using my breastfeeding knowledge to support postnatal mothers.

In 2006 I completed my International Board Certification of Lactation and have maintained this credential since.       

From 2010 I have worked in the field of Child and Family Health nursing where my practice extended from birth and the first six weeks to 4-5 years of age, holding a Clinical Nurse Specialist role since 2014. I established a lactation and baby feeding clinic in 2012 addressing concerns with infant feeding and specialising in babies requiring additional supports including:

• low birth weight babies, premature infants,
• oral anomalies such as cleft lips and palates,
• infant syndromes that particularly impact sucking/feeding.
• babies with low oral tone and congenital tongue issues.
• infant behaviour concerns for example excessive crying and distress, poor sleep patterns, food refusal and excessive gag reflex.
