Hey! I’m Peta, a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and it is my absolute pleasure to support families during those early days and months of life with a newborn!

I am passionate about teaching antenatal breastfeeding classes as I believe that is the first thing to make a real difference to a persons breastfeeding journey.

Postnatally, I love helping families make sense of what is happening, put it all into context for you, give you real practical information and help while supporting your individual feeding goals, whatever they may be and caring for your mental health in the process! I am passionate about education, support and building communities. I can be found around the area surviving on coffee with my husband Shane, 2 beautiful kiddos and 2 nutty dogs!
