Our Services

Tongue Tie Specialists

Tongue tie is where the strip of skin under a baby’s tongue is shorter and tighter than usual. This can cause restriction in tongue movement and function which can cause feeding difficulties. This is what we call a tongue tie.

Breastfeeding Support

Breastfeeding should be pain free and comfortable for both mother and baby. We can do a full assessment to help you achieve this, finding the best positions for both of you to achieve a good milk transfer and optimal growth.

Happy Mums

Gillian and Amanda are absolutely amazing. Kind, knowledgeable, professional and between them put you and your baby at total ease.

Rebecca Daunt

I can’t thank Amanda and Gillian enough for the support I’ve had since my son had his TT diagnosed and cut. Honestly so thankful there are people in this world to offer the knowledge and support to mothers to make their breastfeeding journey more enjoyable and less anxious. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

What a fantastic service Amanda & Gillian offer. Compared to the NHS experience we had fixing my first child’s tongue tie 4 years ago, their service is second to none.
