Human Milk Bank

Research shows that sick and premature babies can have their chances of survival and long term development substantially improved if fed with breast milk. Milk Banks collect and distribute breast milk to poorly babies.

Could you be a breast milk donor?

If you have decided to breastfeed your baby you will know that breast milk is the ideal food.  It is especially important for babies who are sick or premature – like baby Charlotte. Giving these babies breast milk increases their chances of survival and helps their long-term development.

For just a few minutes each day to express off your extra milk will help many babies. The hospital provides sterilised bottles for you to use and collects the milk direct from your home when convenient to you.  It’s really that simple!

Every drop really does count, so call today to register as a donor.

Baby Whisperer and Sleep Advisor

My name is Evelyn Burdon and I have 29 years of experience, empathy and understanding needed to help parents with a restless sleepless baby. My calm and soothing approach quickly resolves difficult sleep problems. I advocate the "No cry" approach and was nicknamed the "Sleep Fairy" by my satisfied clients. The average sleep problem can be solved in a couple of hours, just ONE visit costs £35!!
I teach a 10 point sleep plan, visit at baby's sleep time, and stay until baby has gone to sleep.  

In addition, I provide  a unique Private Health Visiting Service, I give warm and friendly non judgemental advice, offer home vists from BIRTH to 5 years, and I visit at times to suit you including evenings and weekends.

I charge a hourly daytime rate; £20 for the first hour then £15 per hour. The average cost of each visit is £35.
