Did you know that even young babies can sense changes in routine and environment during the holidays?

Babies are highly attuned to their surroundings, and the excitement, noise, and new faces that come with festive celebrations can sometimes feel overwhelming for them.

While it’s wonderful to create special memories, it’s also important to remember that maintaining some familiar rituals—like regular feeding times, quiet cuddles, or a favourite bedtime routine—can help your baby feel safe and secure amidst all the activity.

Research shows that predictable routines support emotional regulation and healthy development in infants.

When babies know what to expect, they’re more likely to feel calm and settled, even when everything else around them is changing.

If you’re travelling or hosting guests, try to keep a few comforting elements from your usual routine in place. This could be as simple as bringing your baby’s favourite blanket, playing familiar lullabies, or setting aside time for one-on-one connection.

How do you help your little one feel secure during the holidays? Share your tips below!

The holiday season is joyful, but it can also bring extra stress for families—especially when feeding challenges are present.

Did you know that stress can impact both parent and baby during feeding?

Taking time to slow down, seek support, and maintain routines can make a big difference.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, you’re not alone.

Reach out for guidance and let’s make this season smoother for you and your little one.

Well… Day 3 of the Virtual CEO Retreat with has definitely not gone to plan.

My sweet cocker spaniel, Honey, had a seizure this morning just as I dropped her at the groomer. 💔

She’s not herself at all, so we’re spending the day keeping her close and waiting for our vet appointment this afternoon.

Not the day I expected, but I still managed to jump into the afternoon session and get some coworking done while we wait.

Hoping we get some answers soon — and sending love to anyone else whose day took an unexpected turn. 💛🐾

Only 6 Clinical Days Left for 2025 Appointments!

Time is running out to secure your spot for a clinical appointment before the end of the year. With just 6 days remaining in my calendar, now is the perfect time to prioritise your baby or toddler’s oral health, feeding, or lactation needs.

Don’t miss this opportunity to access evidence-based, compassionate care and support from a Registered Nurse and IBCLC with over 20 years’ experience. Whether you’re seeking guidance for oral restrictions, feeding challenges, or professional mentoring, I’m here to help.

Book now to avoid disappointment—these final spots will fill quickly!

Day 2 of the Virtual CEO Retreat with is officially DONE — and wow, so much has fallen into place today! ✨

One of my biggest goals was to finalise our new appointment types and billing structure in preparation for some VERY exciting changes inside The Early Parenting Collective… and it’s all happening!

Our incredible student Suzanne has now sat her IBLCE exam (and of course she’s going to pass 🙌), which means she’ll soon be joining TEPC as an IBCLC team member!

And our other student, Janna, is just about ready to begin leading her own consults under my direct supervision.
So today was all about getting our full appointment framework set up — because these two amazing humans are nearly ready to start seeing clients!

We now have four clear tiers of care, designed to support families at every level:
1️⃣ Senior Clinician (me!) – for complex infant feeding cases
2️⃣ IBCLC Team – for standard infant feeding support
3️⃣ Student with Direct Supervision – supported in the consult by me
4️⃣ Student-Led with IBCLC Review – independent consults reviewed and supported by me afterwards

I’m SO thrilled to be expanding our support options and creating more accessible pathways for families to receive high-quality, evidence-based feeding care.

Big things are coming — and I can’t wait to share more soon! 💛✨

Day 1 of the Virtual CEO Business Retreat with is officially done! ✅
Today was all about reflection + strategy:
✨ Reviewing the year
✨ Celebrating the goals I smashed
✨ Noticing what’s still left (and what can be lovingly left behind)
✨ Mapping out what needs to be wrapped up before 2025 ends
And a big one on that list?
Bringing IBCLC staff on board — because one of my amazing students is about to be fully qualified! 🤩
So yes… staffing systems, onboarding, and planning are officially underway.
We also didn’t just talk about our goals — we took real action on them. My favourite kind of retreat.
All from the comfort of home, air con, and the flexibility to duck out and pick up my teenager who’s home sick again with migraines (third one in three weeks 😫).
If anyone has magic migraine remedies for teens… please share! 🙏
Feeling excited for Days 2 and 3 — more planning for 2026, more clarity, more action.
Now I’m diving back into finishing client work from this week before wrapping up for the day. 💛

Something my daughter and I have lived experience in. I’m relieved to say we’ve found our way, but the trauma inflicted is so real.

✨ Protect your breast milk! ✨
With wild weather and storms rolling through, now’s the time to make sure your hard-earned frozen breast milk is safe and stored properly. 🤱❄️

Double-check your freezer setup and think about whether freeze-drying with .com.au  might be worth it for long-term peace of mind. 🌪️

Just remember — freeze-dried milk needs clean water to reconstitute, so it’s also a good idea to have some distilled water on hand as part of your emergency infant-feeding prep. 💧

Some amazing morning reading of Get Real by definitely worth a read if you are a woman in business or wanting to start a business and a great gift at women in business conference.

Well a year ago I could barely walk for 5 mins let alone walk dance the streets of Sufers Paradise with a silent disco as part of conference! It’s been a long 18 months of rehab after my shattered foot and I’m still working on it but this was fun! 🤩

Out of office for a few days 🌿

My family and I (minus my eldest, who’s home studying for his Year 12 external exams — his choice!) have escaped to beautiful Hobart, Tasmania to celebrate some milestone birthdays and reconnect with family — some of whom I haven’t seen in over 14 years.

It feels really special to pause, breathe, and soak in these moments together. ✨

If you reach out while I’m away and it’s not urgent, I’ll reply once we’re home next week. Thank you for your patience and understanding💖
