At Caroline Flynn Lactation, I offer relaxed and informative lactation, infant feeding and early parenting consultations in the privacy, comfort and convenience of your own home, either via a Private Telehealth Consultation or Home Visit.


My commitment to parents, is to listen to your story, understand your family health history and to respect and support your individual feeding needs and goals, so together we can explore and plan for safe and practical strategies to help you to achieve your desired feeding and caregiving outcomes. 


I also have a special interest in assessing for Infant Oral Restrictions and working together to address any possible Upper Lip, Buccal or Tongue issues, with the goal of increasing your breastfeeding skills, confidence, enjoyment and your infant's effective feeding and physical comfort.

 

Qualifications & Experience

I earned my IBCLC exam certification in 1992 and have recertified every 5 years since.  I am a LCANZ professional member, AHPRA Registered Midwife & Registered Nurse and hold Post-Graduate qualifications in Child & Family Health Nursing (Tresillian), Management of Lactation & Infant Feeding (UTS) and Adult Education (UTS).
