Breastfeeding support
When I was expecting my first child, I was convinced that breastfeeding as a natural way of feeding did not require any prior knowledge. Much to my surprise, however, I needed a lot of support and additional information during breastfeeding. I often found myself wondering if one or the other thing is normal. The situation was further complicated by myths surrounding breastfeeding and baby feeding, from which it was difficult to discern evidence-based information.
Kuid peagi õppisin ma imetamist armastama ja naise keha usaldama ning tahan südamest ka Sind sel teekonnal aidata. Soovin, et tunneksid end toetatuna ja mõistetuna, mistõttu sean alati esikohale Sinu ja beebi heaolu. Imetamisnõustajana lähtun Sinu soovidest ja aktsepteerin Sinu valikuid, pakkudes lahendusi oma professionaalsete teadmiste ja aastatepikkuste kogemuste põhjal. Olen olemas ka imetamise lõpetamisel esile kerkivate emotsioonidega, pakkudes sügavuti toetavat kookonhoolitsust imetamisteekonna lõpu tähistamiseks ja Sinu toomiseks tagasi oma turvalisse keskmesse.

I have completed breastfeeding counselor training based on UNICEF materials, several additional trainings, and I am a member of the Estonian Support Association for Birth and Breastfeeding (SIET).
