'As a midwife with a specialist interest in breastfeeding, and who is currently undertaking lactation consultant training, Dee’s presentations, module platform (I am currently doing her tongue tie assessors course), teaching style and content go far beyond that of all others I have experienced. They are utterly fantastic and I urge anyone looking to improve their knowledge around infant feeding to maximise the support they can pass to those in their care to sign up for all/ any of her courses/ masterclasses.'
