How My Lactation Consultant Services have Helped Clients

For all the new first-time moms it's highly recommended to reach out to Caréne Joubert. I experienced many difficulties to get my daughter to latch and feed. Caréne visited me and showed me the correct way to hold my daughter and now she cannot stop feeding. Caréne explained how to correctly stimulate your breast. 10 Stars!

Michéle Walden

I can highly recommend Carene for all new moms. She helped me through one of the hardest times and motivated me to not give up. Breastfeeding is hard but the support I received made me push through. Carene was always there for advice and even when we had to start solids. If your a new mom do yourself a favour and get in contact with Carene, you will not regret it.

Kristin Wicks

Carene visited my daughter on her 1st day at home with their 1st baby. She helped her to latch & find a position that was easy for both mom & baby to breastfeed. She put her at ease & got them to work with skin contact. She was also available on WhatsApp afterwards for questions. If it was not for Bump to Babe's initial support breastfeeding could have been a nightmare.

Maretha Van Wyk Vermaak

I almost gave up.....my breastfeeding journey almost came to an end, but thanks to Caréne Joubert (Bump to Babe) my breastfeeding adventure was saved...I was so glad that she understood my urge to breastfeed and that she did not judge me. Her follow up support and visits helped me to keep my eye on the prize and here I am, very happy and proud of how far I have come.

FAQ's I've seen as a Professional Lactation Consultant

How soon should I book a consultation with a lactation consultant?

It’s best to book a consultation before your baby arrives to prepare for breastfeeding, but you can also reach out anytime if you’re experiencing challenges like latch issues, low milk supply, or pain during breastfeeding.

Do you offer home visits or virtual consultations?

Yes! I offer both in-home consultations (depending on location) and virtual sessions to provide support no matter where you are.

What are common breastfeeding challenges you can help with?

I assist with latch and positioning, nipple pain, low milk supply, oversupply, engorgement, tongue-tie concerns, pumping strategies, and weaning guidance.

Will my medical aid cover lactation consultations?

Some medical aids in South Africa may reimburse lactation consultations. It’s best to check with your provider for coverage details.

Can you help me transition back to work while breastfeeding?

Absolutely! I provide guidance on pumping schedules, milk storage, and maintaining supply so you can continue breastfeeding after returning to work.
