Beth was recommended to me by a colleague as ‘a wonderfully sensible Mary Poppins’ and she has more than lived up to this description! Beth has supported us not just through my breastfeeding journey, but also with reams of sensible advice on routines, independent sleep and newborn behaviour, that fit well with our style of parenting.  My partner works shifts and I had to do a lot of the first few months adjusting alone - Beth was always there at the end of the phone whenever I needed her.  I had planned to breastfeed to 6 months but decided to continue to a year; Beth has recently supported me with feeding supply questions with my upcoming return to work.  We have a happy, healthy son on the 97th centile who sleeps straight through the night, exclusively breast-fed and loving a varied solids diet.  We could not have achieved this without Beth and our family are so grateful for all her guidance and advice.

My breastfeeding journeys with my two children couldn’t be more different, but the one similarity was the invaluable support from Beth. I called her in desperation when my daughter was 6 days old and she came for a home visit. Immediately putting me at ease with both her warmth and professionalism, she observed a feed and gave me the guidance I had been missing to establish breastfeeding effectively. A number of obstacles followed, and although they were made more manageable with Beth’s advice, I decided to stop breastfeeding at 6 weeks. Far from passing judgement, Beth offered to support me on this part of the process too. When I was expecting my second child, I called Beth again, determined to have another go with breastfeeding. I am so glad I did! 7 months in and I am still breastfeeding my son; different baby, different set of circumstances, different experience. I have recommended, and would recommend, Beth to anyone who could benefit from support at any stage of their breastfeeding journey. She combines expert guidance with empathy by the bucketloads and this combination is very special indeed.

I met Beth Graham when my baby Nia was 5 days old.  I had an uncomplicated Caesarian section and the baby was big, 3,86 kilos.  I was determined to breastfeed her as I am fully convinced of all the benefits for both Mums and babies.

As a highly professional medic I thought I knew enough about Breastfeeding.  However I quickly realised how much help I needed with establishing breastfeeding.  This help wasn't available at the postnatal ward or when I did have someone try and help it was rushed, not consistent and gradually my baby dropped close to 10 percent of her birth weight and became jaundiced.
 

I was discharged home with no support and despite a visit from the community midwives once again I found the advice on Breastfeeding very vague and not helpful.  A few times I reached for the Aptamil bottle...but stopped myself.
 

At that point I met Beth Graham.
 

I had an hour long, hands on session with her observing how I was breastfeeding and giving me the most helpful advice in a truly professional way.  She also provided me with invaluable advice on expressing and was available for telephone back up advice whenever I needed her, despite her busy schedule.  She won my trust and confidence immediately.
 

Thanks to Beth Graham's support I established a great breastfeeding routine and my daughter has gained weight healthily ever since her first postnatal days.
 

I Breastfed exclusively for six months and then continued until Nia was 17 months old.
 

Thanks to Beth Graham I found Breastfeeding incredibly easy and enjoyable despite our rocky start and would not hesitate to recommend her to any new Mum who would like some real professional advice and help with Breastfeeding.
 

My tip is to call Beth early on after delivery in order to avoid all the anxiety we had with excess weight loss due to lack of nutrition.
 

Thanks to Beth my baby has been on the 75-91 centile for weight, a healthy chubby baby and toddler and I can't thank her enough.
