Who's who in the zoo?!
Let's meet Jani Truter. She is our go-to for anything relating to breastfeeding, and a favourite among the little ones!
Jani grew up in Somerset West and qualified as a Speech-Language and Hearing Therapist in 2023 at Stellenbosch University. She completed her community service in the small rural town of Hartswater in the Northern Cape.
Jani has special love for working with young children and she is passionate about helping children unlock their full potential. She has a special interest in working with babies and supporting breastfeeding. Jani is currently completing her lactation certification (SACLC) to expand her skills in this area and support new moms.
Outside of work, she enjoys spending time outdoors, travelling, and being active. She also loves experimenting in the kitchen! It is not uncommon for her weekend news to include baking or hosting of some sort.
Jani is a firm believer that children teach us just as much as we teach them and their curiosity and unique way of seeing the world inspire her daily.
