Why Choose By Your Side Postnatal & Lactation Services?

At 'By Your Side ' I care deeply about helping mothers settle into motherhood and achieve their breastfeeding goals. As a qualified midwife, I have a deep understanding of the postpartum period—physically, emotionally, and practically—which allows me to work closely with each mother in a way that is gentle, kind, and non-judgmental.

I offer flexible support options to meet families’ needs:

  • Postnatal Lactation Consultation – I can come to you, providing breastfeeding support in the comfort and privacy of your own home

  • Postnatal Support- I can come to you, provide postnatal support, assist you with your newborn and answer all of your questions. An extra set of hands during your recovery period.
  • Over night support with or without lactation input- I offer overnight support with your infant so that you can get some much needed rest.
  • If you are breastfeeding I can offer expert support and guidance overnight to assist in those challenging early days. I can help with latch and positioning, improve your comfort and be available to help with your newborn.
  • Clinic Appointments – If you prefer, you can attend a clinic in Swords where you will find a calm, welcoming environment.
