“Peta gave me the hope and confidence to persevere with breastfeeding.
Every time she came around she came up with an effective solution that spurred me to keep going.
There were many days when I said ‘that’s it I’m going to formula’ and ‘I can’t do this anymore’ or ‘is he getting too little or too much’
I am now learning to trust my instinct and trust the process of this journey thanks to Peta.
Peta also spent time checking in with me via text message to see how things were going, and to trouble shoot any niggles I was having.
I can’t recommend Peta enough. Myself and my partner are so happy we reached out when we did! Thank you Peta, you are great at what you do and we are so appreciative of all your time and support. We can clearly tell how passionate you are with babies and breastfeeding.”

“Peta was so helpful with getting me breastfeed properly. I had 3 nurses and a doula try help me but Peta was the only one that got my little dude to latch properly.”

“Peta helped me through a very rough period of nipple damage after the birth of my son, her support and dedication to ensure my long term breastfeeding goals were met was truly invaluable and I’m not sure I could have done it without her! Not only is she highly skilled, she’s so passionate about supporting women and really went above and beyond to check in on me (even during her own holidays!). Peta helped me set up a plan, manage the damage which occurred in hospital and did multiple visits to my home to ensure my technique and latch continued to improve. I now absolutely love breastfeeding my son and can’t thank Peta enough, wound highly recommend Beaches Baby for education or post natal care and support.”

“Peta has been an amazing support on my breastfeeding journey. I first got I touch with Peta when we bought our daughter home during lockdown. As the midwife’s weren’t doing home visits we just wanted someone to come see us so we could ask heaps of questions. Peta watched me feed and helped with our many many questions. Since then Peta has helped provide guidance which I have no doubt has kept me solely breastfeeding when I was getting other advice that just didn’t feel right for us at the time. I have no doubt that without Peta things could have been very different. I’m so grateful for her support. Thanks Peta”

“Peta helped me and my baby get back on track after our 6 day old was poorly. Can’t thank her enough for the emotional support and super fast results. Great advice given with empathy and clear direction- exactly what we needed! Thanks so much!”

“Peta was an amazing support when I had my first baby, she had tongue tie and it was very hard to breastfeed at the beggining.
Peta then created several plans to increase my milk supply and help baby to put weight on. They are not always easy but so worth it, baby is now 8 weeks and I am exclusively breastfeeding.
Will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a lactation consultant, she’s the best!”

“Peta has been amazing!! I feel so very lucky that I found her & will forever be grateful for the support & expertise she gave us!!
We had a really tough start with breastfeeding with lots of mismanagement and confusing infos and it was looking like we may not be able to move to 100% breastmilk for our baby.
Peta helped us turn that all around!!! Our baby is now 100% breastfed and we couldn’t be more grateful for having met Peta just in time!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I recommend her services to anyone struggling with breastfeeding as she is truly the BEST! :)”

“Absolute lifesaver! Peta was incredible - I saw a ton of lactation experts with my first baby and nothing worked. I reached out to Peta when I was headed down the same track with my second, the hospital and community clinic said to just top baby up and start pumping. One session with Peta and she got us on track, baby was back onto gaining weight. She was calm, compassionate, and really helped us with some simple tips. Would highly recommend and wish I had met her sooner!”

“I booked an initial consultation with Peta a few days after coming home from hospital, stressed with a jaundiced sleepy baby would only latch with a nipple shield and was not feeding well at all. In a single session we had ditched the shield and established a better latch, great start! Unfortunately baby still needed some extra help getting enough calories to gain her weight back, which we were able to pick up on early when Peta dropped in (outside of her normal consultation!) to check how we were going. Peta then helped worked out a feeding plan that we could sustain and keep my sanity and it was onwards and upwards from there! Amazing follow up support, can’t recommend enough!”

“Peta was AMAZING, CARING, SUPPORTIVE and saved us!
When we came home from hospital with our first baby; who had jaundice, wasn’t feeding well and a slowing milk supply - we were frazzled with what to do.
Peta came up with a feeding schedule for us to try and helped me with breastfeeding tips and tricks. He has now bulked up and I am so comfortable with breastfeeding I am a new woman!
Thank you so much for your help, support and patience with us! You are a STAR at what you do and don’t ever STOP!”

“Peta has been the most incredible resource for me post birth guiding me through my difficult breastfeeding journey. She guided us through rehab for both bub and I post hospital and gave a plan that we felt comfortable with to reach my breastfeeding goals. If it wasn’t for her I would have given up ! Her continued support throughout made the world of difference. Not only is Peta a great IBCLC, she’s also a wonderful human and made us feel safe and secure in a time of vulnerability. 1000/10 recommend Peta for any new mummas, mums to be or those needing help on their breastfeeding journey whatever the stage.”

“Peta has been absolute saviour in helping us get on track with feeding our newborn. We left the hospital after birth with a relentless and unforgiving triple feeding schedule (breastfeeding + expressed bottle + formula bottle + pumping) handed to us by midwives to help get bub’s weight up, and felt very confused and unclear about the overall plan to help us get to exclusively breast feeding. We engaged Peta at 1.5 weeks after birth and within just 5 days, Peta was able to help us transition from an exhausting triple feeding schedule to exclusively breast feeding, and do so in a way that feel informed, safe and smart. Peta’s approach is super individualised - she helped us with our latch, checked for tongue ties, debriefed my birth and pregnancy to identify cause for issues, and was able to confirm with confidence that I was transferring more than enough milk to my newborn via breastfeeding alone.
Midwives have been astounded by bub’s weight progress and have said they rarely see mums transition from triple feeding to EBF this quickly (within 1.5 weeks of birth). Bub is now +8% above birth weight at Day 15 which midwives also said they rarely see even from second time mums. We credit Peta’s guidance for these awesome results!
Peta is hands on and super communicative - proactively checking in on us daily with texts and facetimes to make us feel supported. We’d recommend Peta a million times over to anyone who needs extra support on their baby’s feeding journey!”
