Milly was such an amazing support throughout my first 7 weeks with a newborn. She was able to provide expertise on every concern I had and talked me through everything carefully so it was very clear. She gave me lots of options for things and then let me decide what I felt was best.She was very prompt to respond to messages and is generally just a lovely person to have support you through what can be such a tricky time!I have recommended her to my friends who have also been very happy with Milly's expertise.
Milly was amazingly helpful and reassuring when I saw her soon after having a baby. She gave really practical straightforward advice and it was a real comfort knowing I could contact her on WhatsApp with any follow up questions. Highly recommend!
I found Milly at a critical juncture in my breastfeeding journey where I felt like giving up, and her reassurance and expertise is what enabled me to keep going through a challenging time. She was compassionate without judgment and I would recommend her to anyone looking for feeding support post partum!!
Milly made such a difference to my breastfeeding journey and I felt things turn around from that point onwards. Invaluable advice delivered in a really supportive way.
Very helpful &efficient!! All the information & instructions i needed! Very sweet personality too! I would recommend 100%
Very helpful and available, totally recommend!
Milly arrived promptly (cycling through hail!), and instantly put me at ease with her relaxed, yet professional, demeanour. I had been having significant breastfeeding challenges for 5 months, which no support I had previously received had helped. However, just one hour with Milly (and the incredibly useful 2 week WhatsApp follow up) solved months of breastfeeding pain and struggle. Because of Milly’s support and advice, I can now confidently breastfeed in public, no longer have any pain whilst breastfeeding, and am beginning to even enjoy it - something I never thought would be possible! I am so grateful to Milly and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
Extremely helpful, providing practical and compassionate support, would recommend to anyone looking for guidance.
Milly was a real lifesaver and helped me get through those first few difficult weeks nursing my first baby. Calm, responsive, warm and knowledgable, she quickly diagnosed the issues we were facing and provided a number of recommendations which worked instantly. She was always on hand to answer my many questions and I can honestly say she saved our breastfeeding journey - I’ve since recommended her to many friends and my NCT group. Thank you, Milly 🙏

Milly is an excellent lactation consultant, she is kind, patient, thoughtful, highly skilled & knowledgeable. She really helped build my confidence with breastfeeding, offering very clear advice but always without judgement. She looks at every situation holistically and I felt I could get some really solid advice from her much beyond the first consultation - thank you Milly!
Milly gave me confidence to breastfeed and personalised advice that improved my experience overall. She also sent me useful links and was available for further questions so I felt supported. I wish I had reached out to her even earlier after giving birth. I highly recommend Milly if you have trouble breastfeeding or just need the reassurance you and your baby are doing well.
Milly has been a great help for us ever since our hospital admission due to poor feeding. She is super efficient, very knowledgeable and available around the clock. We are really glad to have found her and to have her guiding us on our breastfeeding journey.
Milly was incredibly kind, supportive and thoughtful. She gave me great advice for my month-old baby and was super responsive to texts at all hours. She guided me to a combination feeding approach that works for me - unlike some of the other advice I had gotten which was less flexible. Would definitely recommend to any mom looking for guidance with a new baby.
Milly’s consultation was a game changer for me! As a first time mum I had no idea what I was doing and was feeling stressed about feeding my baby. She quickly made herself available and was incredibly helpful in getting my baby to latch and stay latched! She led was empathy, compassion and has a holistic approach to breastfeeding. She calmed my anxious thoughts & answered all my questions and concerns. Breastfeeding has gone from terrifying to something I love! Im beyond grateful and recommend Milly wholeheartedly. Thank you, Milly! ❤️
Milly was such a life saver after breastfeeding had become so painful! She came over on a weekend to help, guide, support and reassure. It was then so great to be able to contact her with questions. No question was too small or silly. I thoroughly recommend Milly if you need support for breastfeeding, I would have given up without her!
I reached out to Milly at 6 weeks postpartum after experiencing many ups and downs of breastfeeding! She was brilliant. She accommodated me at very short notice, talked everything through with me and provided me with lots of useful advice, reassurance and guidance. I have already recommended Milly to my friends who are also postpartum needing breastfeeding support. Thank you!
Milly is an excellent lactation consultant. She provided detailed and specific advice with helpful links. Very responsive on watsapp. Very knowledgeable, up to date and I appreciated how she explained the rationale for everything. She was also compassionate and patient. I also liked the fact that she worked as a midwife in an NHS hospital as well as private lactaction practice.
She has been wonderful and really helped us get back on track with breastfeeding. Highly recommended!
Matteo D
Dad of 1 week baby
I really struggled with breastfeeding for the first month, I was in agony and dreading every feed and didn’t think it was ever going to get better.
Milly was such a huge help! She suggested different positions, gave useful advice on pumping and helped me build up my confidence again. It was also invaluable having someone reliable on hand to ask all of the ‘is this normal…?’ questions to afterwards. 13 weeks in and baby is still exclusively breast fed, no stress or pain, I didn’t think I would ever get to this point! Thank you so much Milly!

Milly was relentless in helping us with our little one, even after the 2 weeks of WhatsApp support were over, as our little one needed referrals to other specialists. She is punctual, empathetic and very knowledgeable about feeding but goes above and beyond that. Would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for support with feeding your little ones.

Milly has been fantastic since we first got in contact! She helped identify issues with feeding and latching that no one else was and we were able to get faster treatment and support for our baby! The WhatsApp support has been invaluable and so responsive, we cannot recommend her enough!
Chris J

Milly was so helpful and supportive. She was able to do a home visit at very short notice and followed up with us with continued support. Could not recommend enough. Worth every penny.
Conrad
Dad of 2 week baby
Milly was very kind, easy to talk to, knowledgeable and clear. She packed a lot of practical support and ideas into the hour long session and followed up with helpful resources and a summary of the session which was much needed as a sleep deprived new parent! She was also very responsive by text and was able to come round at short notice.

I really appreciate the support Milly provided in helping me find more comfortable feeding positions for my baby. She was patient, kind, and took the time to understand my concerns. Her gentle and caring approach made me feel truly supported and confident in feeding my baby. She also stayed in touch for several days after the session to check in and make sure I was doing okay. I highly recommend Milly to any parent looking for compassionate and knowledgeable lactation support!

So glad I arranged a home visit from Milly! Her approach was extremely thorough and calming. Milly reviewed and offered a huge range of advice on feeding and helped me with suitable feeding positions whilst recovering from a c-section which I am so grateful for! Since the visit the Milly has continued to reach out to offer valuable support which was much appreciated. Thanks Milly!!

We had a really good experience with Milly. She came highly recommended from others in my NCT group. I had always had good success with breastfeeding but had my confidence knocked by a dip in my supply and some position advice that wasn’t helpful. So we contacted Milly for some extra support, and to help me plan to co-sleep safely. Working with Milly really boosted my confidence and made me feel in control of my breastfeeding journey again. She gave useful and realistic advice that wasn’t just generic but custom to you. I also really appreciated her follow up after the visit – felt good to have someone to ask questions too! Thank you Milly!!

Milly was excellent and helped us introduce triple feeding while we got things established. The results were incredible and our baby is now fully breastfed after starting on only formula from birth. Particularly the WhatsApp support was excellent and she was super patient with all my questions, thank you again so much!
Hayley C

Milly came to see us at home soon after we reached out and it was so valuable having her observe the breastfeeding and answer all our questions. She showed us new positions to try and gave lots of information and guidance around feeding at night which we had been struggling with. She is really kind and friendly, so it’s very easy to talk to her and feel supported. It was also incredibly useful to be able to ask questions via WhatsApp in the weeks that followed. We are really grateful and would thoroughly recommend her to others.

Milly was a great help in the early days of establishing breastfeeding especially showing us different positions to help baby get a better latch and more effective feed. She has a great patient manner.

It was quite reassuring to meet with Milly a week postpartum. I was feeling anxious about breastfeeding and was not ready to leave the house to get support. I messaged her for support and the following morning she was at our place!We walked through different latching positions which was quite helpful. Most importantly, she was available for two weeks via WhatsApp to answer any of my frantic questions/ inquiries. Her support was great lactation wise, but for me she provided a safe and reassuring space which helped my mental health PP.

I met with Millie when my daughter was 5 weeks old and I was coming off a terrible case of mastitis. She was super responsive and incredibly helpful with advice on new positions to try, ways to evaluate active feeding, and suggestions for improving latch. She followed up with me several times to check in and offer support, and really helped me get through a difficult stretch in my breastfeeding journey so that I was able to continue to exclusively breastfeed to this day (4 months later!). Highly recommend!

Milly our lactation consultant, was a great resource during a challenging time. We were having trouble with latching, and our baby was losing weight, which was concerning. She provided us with a clear breastfeeding plan and practical advice that helped us address the latching issues. Her approach was supportive and knowledgeable, and we saw significant improvement with her guidance. Within a week time we managed to increase our son’s weight above birthweight. We’re ever so grateful for her help and would recommend her to other families facing similar challenges.

As a first time mum I was determined to exclusively breastfeed to give my baby boy the best start possible. I feel the support isn’t really there once you give birth due to the pressure on the nhs. I was struggling with my latch due to having big breasts and was really stressed out with the cluster feeding phase during the night. Milly was amazing and visited my home and showed me positions I can do on my bed and made sure I was getting the latch correct. I now enjoy breastfeeding and can get sleep at night! Milly is also a midwife which is super beneficial for asking other baby related questions. Milly offers a 2 week whats app service and is very responsive to any question big or small. I highly recommended Milly, especially for first time mums who don’t have experience. Thank you so much again.

Seeing Milly was one of the best decisions we made after the birth of our daughter! We had a challenging start to our breastfeeding journey and without Milly we would not have made it as far as we have now – she arrived with such kindness, understanding and knowledge and really helped us exactly when we needed it! Have recommended to many mums since and they’ve all said exactly the same! Thanks Milly for everything ☺️

Milly came round to my house and helped show me different positions to help my little one latch better. Feeding immediately felt better. She was easily reached by WhatsApp and helped reassure me and answered all the questions I had. She was also able to suggest a Dr who could help assess baby further. Loved her non-judgemental and reassuring approach. Thanks so much!

Milly has been so fab- coming over to ours to advise us with breastfeeding positions, latching, how to tell if baby is taking in enough etc. Really helped calm my worries. She also has been great with responding to lots of questions over WhatsApp – whenever I had an issue. Would 100% recommend, as a first time mum her support has been invaluable

Milly has helped us enormously with our breastfeeding journey, particularly in getting it off to a good start. She was able to come to see us at super short notice when our baby was two weeks old, and made me feel so much more confident that we were getting things ‘right’, despite some confusion around baby’s weight. It was really helpful to be able to message her when we had questions after the initial appointment, and she also has kept in touch since, checking in to make sure things are still going well. Highly recommend making an appointment with Milly if you’re still getting to grips with breastfeeding and need a confidence boost!

Could not recommend Milly more highly for first time mums. Not only is she a really knowledgeable lactation consultant, she is an nhs midwife so can basically give you advice on all things baby related. I got Milly for a face to face after I felt something wasn’t right at 7 weeks and my only qualm is I didn’t get her sooner. She pretty quickly suspected my baby had a posterior tongue tie which was causing insanely long and frequent feeding sessions that made me quite reclusive. On top of this, she generously offered to refer us to the tongue tie team at the hospital my baby was born at. Milly supported me all along the way- I would frequently text her to ask for advice and even on weekends, she would always return texts in a few hours with super well thought out responses. I subsequently scheduled a virtual follow up with Milly after my baby’s tongue tie procedure and again, it was worth every penny!!Milly has the most incredible bedside manner whereby she lays out all the options in a non- biased way and lets you choose what is ultimately best. I can’t express how “heard” I felt in the sessions and not judged to just stick breast feeding out to my detriment.For anyone looking for feeding support, I would definitely recommend Milly. You will find the support you need.

Milly at Milky Starts really helped us at a point at which our breastfeeding journey was very challenging. She put together a plan for us which has got us to a really great place and did so with great empathy! She is super knowledgable and I would highly recommend her!

Milly came to see us in the week after I gave birth and she was brilliant. She is such a kind and reassuring person and was really helpful with showing some different positions which made a big difference in the long term for easing pain, she also was very helpful with the latch. The two weeks of WhatsApp support were so helpful and reassuring in those early weeks especially with a first baby as we had so many questions and doubts. Well worth the money!
Alicia Q

Milly is the reason I have had such a good start to feeding my son. She came to our flat the day after we left hospital and helped us come up with a personalise phased plan that helped my baby to learn how to latch and helped get my supply going while avoiding over-stimulating. She was always lovely, responsive and supportive any time of day and helped troubleshoot over the course of a few weeks while I was figuring everything out. My son is now 8 weeks and breastfeeding is easy and second nature with no pain. Thank you so much, Milly!
Leila M

We saw Milly two weeks after we welcomed our baby, when I was feeling completely at a loss with breastfeeding and in the depths of combi feeding. Milly helped to put a programme in place with amazing tips along the way, and fantastic caring, clear support. I couldn’t reccommend Milkystarts & Milly enough, I am now exclusively breastfeeding and Milly’s help in the beginning of our breastfeeding journey made that possible. Thank you!
Lara Morgan

Our initial consultation with Milly was excellent and the follow-up help has been invaluable. Milly was kind, personable and understanding. She provided practical and very helpful tips on dealing with engorgement, feeding and expressing milk. She has been incredibly responsive and it’s clear to see how much she cares about her clients. We highly recommend Milly to anyone who needs help with the breast feeding or milk expression.

I cannot recommend Milly enough! As a new mum, I was struggling with breastfeeding, following the cluster feeding phase as my breasts were sore. Milly’s support made all the difference. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and compassionate. From the moment I contacted her, she put me at ease and made me feel heard.Milly provided practical advice tailored to my baby’s needs and helped me overcome the challenges I was facing. She was always available to answer my questions and offered invaluable tips that made breastfeeding so much easier. Her expertise, combined with her calming and supportive approach, truly made a difference in our breastfeeding journey.Thanks to her guidance, I feel much more confident and my baby is thriving. If you’re looking for a lactation consultant who genuinely cares and offers top-notch support, Milly is the person to go to!

Milly’s help in our first few weeks was invaluable, we would have been lost without her. Milly helped us with early messages when still in hospital then visited us at home and answered all my questions. It was the best money we spent and we are so grateful!

Milly was absolutely incredible! Upon sending a request late one night, she speedily responded and fit me in the next day. I felt so much more comfortable after spending an hour learning about different techniques to feed my son and how to feel more confident! It is great being able to communicate about anything for a period after our visit too!

Milly was absolutely brilliant. I was really impressed that we were able to cover everything I had wanted to in 1 hour. Milly was very clear with her guidance and very approachable and understanding. I had been hesitant to arrange a 1:1 session as I had been trying to use the free support at the health centre, but the session with Milly was TOTALLY worth it and helped me to manage to breastfeed when I was almost at the point of stopping.Following the 1:1 session, Milly’s 2 weeks of whatsapp support were also really helpful (I wasn’t sure originally if I would really need these, but I then found that I did – so having someone to consult was super useful).Milly really turned things round for me. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone struggling to breastfeed. Thanks Milly!

Could not recommend Milly more. My baby was premature and struggling to latch after 6 weeks of exclusively pumping. My supply had dipped from breastfeeding and the hour consultation and follow up WhatsApp support with Milly gave me the information and confidence I needed to keep going. My baby is now fully breastfed and thriving!

I needed to see a lactation consultant as I was going through a very difficult time with breastfeeding. After mastitis and an infected galactocele, it was very reassuring when Milly assessed the latch and baby properly. Milly has great knowledge and is very easy to talk to, which is very important when being emotionally vulnerable postpartum. The follow up email had everything written down with useful links and videos.
Thank you for your help.

Purni Gupta

I am so glad that I saw Milly in the second week of postpartum breastfeeding. She made time to see me straight away and helped to both ease my anxieties and offer advise on my latch technique. This helped to resolve the pain I was experiencing. She walked me through various breastfeeding positions and allowed me to ask as many questions as I needed including those around express pumping, milk supply and knowing if my baby was receiving everything she needed from me. In addition, I was able to contact her for up to two weeks and encouraged to send videos and pictures of the latch if I encountered any more pain during feeding. She was a huge support and the gentle reassurance I needed in that week. I highly recommend reaching out to her if you are in need of a lactation consultant.

I saw Milly pre- and post-natally and she was incredibly supportive and helpful, and really got me off to a great start on my breastfeeding journey. As well as coming to my home very soon after the birth to help me work on my latch and different breastfeeding positions, she was super responsive and supportive via WhatsApp afterwards. Having someone to go to with my questions and worries was so important, and she was always really informative and reassuring. I would highly recommend her and think she’s brilliant!!
Katy Footman

Milly came to visit when I was struggling with my baby’s latch. Breast feeding was very painful and I was on the verge of giving up. Her calm and practical guidance helped me to help my baby to latch on successfully and she shared a number of other techniques that I am using now. My baby is now fully breast fed and is above birth weight at 10 days – after some early challenges, the midwife couldn’t believe how well he is doing. I’m not sure we’d have got here without Milly!

If you’re having feeding difficulties, baby weight gain issues or just needing some support, Milly is incredible.Our baby was struggling to gain weight. Milly spent time with us assessing our baby for any feeding barriers in the comfort of our home, she then supported us through the best way forward to increase my milk supply and also support our baby to gain weight. She also helped us navigate mixed breast/bottle feeding as it was my wish that my partner could be involved in feeds and give me some more rest.I can’t recommend Milly enough. She was a huge source of support through this difficult newborn period. I ended up extending WhatsApp support after the initial period, as she was able to help us navigate the changes and challenges of feeding day to day. I am now having a more positive breastfeeding experience and our baby is gaining weight and thriving. Thank you Milly, you completely turned our breastfeeding experience around and empowered us.

Milly was absolutely fantastic! She was instrumental in our breastfeeding journey and helped us completely turn things around after experiencing difficulty with feeding and discovering that our baby had been losing weight. Milly gave very hands on, clear advice about latching and feeding positions, with lots of patience to make sure I’d got it right during the consultation, as well as practical and tailored advice about pumps, expressing milk and giving top ups. She was incredibly kind, supportive and encouraging through what was a very challenging and emotional time for me. The two week messaging support is great – Milly even regularly checked in to see how things were going when I hadn’t messaged myself with specific questions. Couldn’t recommend her enough! Thank you Milly!

Milly was fantastic in supporting my breastfeeding journey! I managed to get an appointment with her within 24 hours, and she was so helpful and empathetic throughout the meeting, showing me new feeding positions and ways to latch. The 2 week messaging support she provides post-meeting was also really helpful – she often responds within hours! I cannot recommend Milly enough!

I managed to get an appointment the same day and she came to our house, I felt very comfortable with her helping me and my baby with achieving a good breastfeeding position and latch. Milly was very knowledgeable and with the new techniques I was shown I was able to successfully breastfeed my baby! She was also on hand via messaging for a further 2 weeks with any questions I had.

Milly was fantastic, after coming across her profile on Instagram, we quickly were able to schedule an at home visit in Walthamstow. Milly was brilliant supporting us in the session, enabling us to practice new positions and giving us really helpful advice on breast and bottle feeding and safe sleeping. She’s still supporting us via WhatsApp as we practice at home!
We would highly recommend Milky Starts for your postpartum journey! Her rate is also competitive so don’t hesitate to book!

The time, input and support Milly gave us when our baby arrived was invaluable, I cannot recommend her enough.
From birth I really struggled to get baby latch to feed and after a home visit this improved hugely by that same evening. The support following the visit has also been really key to consolidating initial progress.
Millys kind and supportive approach was exactly what I needed as new mum.
Thank you.

Milly was so brilliant with me. I was having issues with an over supply of milk which was exacerbating my baby’s reflux. She was so calming and gave me achievable realistic and straightforward advice that really helped. My baby is now feeding very well and my supply has settled. I can’t recommend Milly enough.
Roisin

I absolutely loved working with Milly. I struggled with latching and general confidence with breastfeeding as I was a first time mum. Milly approached things in a really calm, supportive and nurturing way and was completely non-judgmental. She gave me a detailed plan in writing after I saw her which helped serve as a reminder of what I should be looking to do (alongside maternal instinct of course!). A week or so after I saw Milly, we were able to go bottle and formula free (which was our personal goal) with my one week old (who is now three months old) and I’ve now reached the stage where I feel confident enough to feed wherever and whenever (sometimes whilst I’m doing the hoovering or laundry 😂!!). Thanks so much Milly!
