Little Latch Lactation began as a quiet idea during my time as a Registered Nurse at Sydney Children’s Hospital, where I cared for unwell infants and saw firsthand the lack of support for their mothers. That experience sparked a deep commitment to helping families navigate their infant feeding journeys—wherever they may lead.

My passion for infant and women’s health shaped my career early on, from roles at Bear Cottage and a women’s health clinic to discovering my love for lactation support in the NICU at the Royal Hospital for Women. I’ve since held specialist roles in lactation at both the Royal and Liverpool Hospital NICUs.

Now based in Orange, I focus on supporting rural women and families—offering calm, expert care tailored to their unique feeding goals.
