ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Savannah, a qualified International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Speech and Language Therapist specialising in infant and paediatric feeding. I originally trained in South Africa and moved to the UK six years ago (and of course, like most foreigners, I have stayed on longer than planned). I have worked in feeding for the past eight years and currently work part-time for the NHS in both a neonatal unit and community team. I love my job and feel lucky to be able live out my passion.
​
I have my masters in Advanced Paediatrics and am trained in the SOS approach to feeding therapy.
​
To me, feeding and mealtimes are so much more than food and nutrition. They are about about family, sharing, laughter, story-telling, love, community and bonding. This is the philosophy on which I base my practice. Just like walking and talking, eating is a learning process. Whether it is breastfeeding, bottle feeding or developing chewing, all types of feeding are a skill. Let me help you and your baby, toddler or child LEARN TO FEED!
