Welcome form course tutor Dee Bell RM, IBCLC and Specialist Tongue-tie Practitioner
Welcome to this Breastfeeding Mini-Course!
I’m Dee, I live near Brighton with the fabulous 11-year-old Florence. I am a registered midwife, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) , and a Specialist Tongue-Tie Practitioner.
I trained to become a Midwife over 20 years ago and worked within the NHS for over 16 years before leaving to specialise in Infant Feeding and Tongue-tie in private practice.
I founded Birth, Baby & You (a feeding support service for new families) in order to offer a more bespoke service to my clients and give them the expert support and time they so desperately need.
I have supported thousands of families with Infant feeding and have carried out literally thousands of tongue-tie releases over the past 13 years as a specialist.
In 2021 I fulfilled a dream and founded The Infant Feeding Academy, in order to teach other Practitioners to do what I do!
Teaching dedicated Practitioners to provide high-quality support is a dream come true. I would love to welcome you to our team of trained practitioners.
Welcome from course tutor, Olivia Hinge RM. IBCLC...
Hey,
I’m Olivia, I’m a mum to three and a Hospital Lactation Consultant. Having found establishing feeding with my first child really challenging, despite being a midwife. I decided to train as a lactation consultant and qualified in 2019.
Since then I’ve been on a mission to support families to make informed decisions about how they feed their baby. In a way that works for them as a family, based on facts and dispelling myths.
I started my Instagram account in 2021 in order to provide free resources for parents and its popularity has skyrocketed over the last year, now reaching over 54 thousand followers.
I joined The Infant Feeding Academy in 2022 to teach on the ‘Newborn Nurslings’ module, which was fantastic! I will be joining you to teach throughout the program and can’t wait to deliver evidence-based up-to-date feeding training for Practitioners.
