Breastfeeding Support for parents in Jersey

Penny expanded her skill set in 2022 after studying a post-graduate level, twelve month breastfeeding course with the Centre for Breastfeeding Education and Research. She is now delighted to bring private, evidenced based breastfeeding support to mums and families in Jersey.

Penny gives you the time you and your baby need to work through your breastfeeding situation in a supportive and empowering manner, in the comfort of your home or by video call.

Every mother and baby pair is unique, and each new baby an experienced parent has, brings a different set of needs. Penny works with sensitivity to your personal circumstances, at any time in your breastfeeding journey, to support you both before and after the birth.

Penny has a great enthusiasm for the importance of the breastfeeding relationship, and for the ever increasing understanding of the importance of breastfeeding and breast-milk. She aims to support you in your decisions around feeding your baby, whether that means fully breast fed at the breast, by bottle or combi or mixed feeding. Penny is known to, and recommended by many mums in the island.
