Nicola Coles-Carr IBCLC

Specialist Lactation Support

Testimonials

“Having had no struggles feeding our first baby, it came as a shock that it was such a different experience with our second little boy. He was fractious and distressed during and after feeding and had lost considerable weight. I had spoken with the GP, health visitors and also attended a feeding clinic before finding Nicola. She came to visit us at home and helped us. She was incredibly sensitive, knowledgeable and listened to our concerns and preferences regarding feeding. Following Nicola’s visit, and with her ongoing support, we were able to achieve healthy weight gain and continue breastfeeding. We are enjoying watching our boy grow and thrive and this would not have been possible without her support.”

“Nicola is the one reason that I have continued my breastfeeding journey at all and still going strong nearly two years in. She has supported us on numerous occasions. Always validating our experience and making me feel safe to be honest and then try new things. She has provided lots of expert advice as well as nurturing support, and multiple different approaches in order to help resolve the obstacles we have had. She has also helped me through some tough periods of doubt and strain, and without her we would have given up at the very beginning. Cannot recommend Nicola’s support and services enough!”

“Nicola was absolutely amazing…. helpful, kind and totally down to earth. She saved my breastfeeding journey. After numerous visits from health professionals and calls to helplines I finally stumbled upon Nicola’s contact details. From our initial phone consultation Nicola was so wonderful and helpful. She is really knowledgeable about breastfeeding and it is clear she is passionate about what she does. She didn’t overload me with information; she gave me really helpful tips I could use and continued to support me even after her visits. She gave me individualised and up to date feedback. I can’t thank Nicola enough for her help!”

“We reached out to Nicola because we were having weight issues with our 4 month old, and wanted reassurance that we were feeding correctly, and support on any changes we needed to make. Nicola was great, she could fit us in straight away, was professional, friendly and gave us the feeding pointers and reassurance we needed. She was also instrumental in getting us follow on medical support that we required and were struggling to access ourselves. Following a home visit, Nicola has been great at checking in regularly, offering further support remotely and answering any follow up questions we have.”
