Home Visits
The very best solution for support and information is a home visit where we can help you with your breastfeeding journey in the comfort of your home.
The visit will allow us to watch a feed and help with positioning or latch. During this time we can listen to any challenges or difficulties, and answer any questions you may have. We can also provide ongoing support for feeding and post-natal life. Being local, and having worked in the area for many years, we can signpost you to other support organisations that may help with your journey.
First Home visit is charged at £50, then £45 for any follow-up visits. Visits are typically 45mins,
We can do home visits in Worcestershire and Gloucestershire (WR Postcode area, GL3 and all areas GL14 to 56 Postcode Areas). We may be able to visit outside these areas but there would be an extra charge to cover mileage. If unsure please contact us before booking.
Video Calls
If it is not possible to make a home visit, we can offer video support calls.
Anny has many years experience supporting on video calls and over the telephone, and very often can help with latch and positioning. It is helpful if someone is around with you to hold the phone/camera, but Anny has got used to being able to see what is happening even if a mother is juggling baby and telephone.
Video calls are on Zoom and cost £40 for upto 45mins
We are able to offer Home visits on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We are able to offer video calls Monday to Friday.
Private Ante-Natal Workshops
We can offer a 90 min Private Ante-Natal Workshop tailored to your needs. This can be in the comfort of your own home, (if you are outside of our catchment area, there may be an extra charge for travel) or on Zoom.
We will tailor the session to your needs but could typically include some or all of the following:
- Baby’s natural instincts and reflexes
- Signs that breastfeeding is going well
- Positioning and latch
- Expressing and mixed feeding
- Common challenges and overcoming barriers
Text Support
For some people texting/messaging may be their preferred choice of asking for support.
Using EMail or WhatsApp Support we can share information, and offer support and strategies to help you manage your breastfeeding journey. It can be beneficial for some people to message when it fits in with them (perhaps in the middle of the night!). We can also offer set times for instant text support conversations for those people who might not feel comfortable with face-to-face or telephone support
For anytime text support please send your message or email at any time, we will reply to you as soon as we can, please note; Email and Facebook Messenger will only be manned in the evenings Monday to Friday.
Or, for peace of mind you can choose a monthly package, where you can access feeding support in your own time and at your own pace:
Upto 4 text message support appointments within the month
Plus unlimited anytime messages for signposting within the month

Telephone Support
You may prefer to use our telephone support service.
We have extensive experience supporting over the phone. While we can’t see how a baby is positioned or latched, we can listen to how feeding is going and offer help and information, and signpost you to useful videos. We are also able to discuss difficulties and challenges with feeding, including any thoughts and/or feelings around stopping breastfeeding and support with strategies around stopping.
We are able to offer telephone support Monday to Friday, calls are upto 30mins. Calls cost £20 per call
