WELCOME TO TONGUETIE JACKIE


Vision
To help you and your family feed your baby comfortably and confidently.
To see you in a timely manner with realistic expectations for achieving feeding goals.
It may be the milk supply needs improving; techniques need support, or you need additional support at home during this time.
It might not be so easy but it will be worth it. every feeding journey is unique and individual for each family.
So congratulations to you and your baby for persevering this far.
Feeding problems can be hard, but can be overcome. You may not need much help to get your feeding journey on track, with different positions and latching, to make it more enjoyable and create wonderful memories of this special time.
I see breast and bottlefed babies , mixed feeders, cup and sns( supplementary nursing system) support.
Sometimes its only about adjusting your latch or position and feeding become much easier.
For example...Latching positions, CHINS, different holds: rugby, cross cradle, laid back, laying down. Different bottles and techniques. hand expressing and pumping. There are many suggestions we can make.
Sometimes its about supporting you to rest enough and recover and eat and drink enough to help you cope.
It's not exhaustive.
It's always individual.
Each baby is special.
I can support you with feeding only or assess and divide Tongueties at home aswell when needed.
Tonguetie division is never the first or only remedy that we offer. It's always about supporting you both to feed.
SAFETY
HYGIENE PRECAUTIONS
I will wear gloves, mask and apron or clinical top for each visit.
Please would you both wash your hands and wipe areas that we use before and after my visit and maybe open a couple of windows for ventilation.
I'd be grateful if all animals are secure in another room or outside for safety.
Thank you so much.
