Who the Parent Library Is For

This library is for you if:

  • You’re pregnant or preparing for life with a newborn and want to understand feeding, milk production and what to expect in the early weeks

  • You’re breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pumping or combination feeding and want support that adapts to your baby and your situation

  • You’re navigating reflux, unsettled behaviour, gut symptoms, food sensitivities or allergies and want calm, practical explanations

  • You’ve been told “it’s normal” but feel something still isn’t quite right

  • You want to understand what’s normal vs when to seek extra support, without jumping to worst-case scenarios

  • You value IBCLC and midwife-led guidance that connects feeding, development, sleep and oral function

  • You want reliable information you can return to at 2am, without scrolling social media or Googling yourself into a spiral.

It’s especially helpful for:

  • First-time parents who want reassurance and clarity

  • Parents who’ve had a challenging feeding or postpartum experience previously

  • Families who want online support for infant feeding, reflux, sleep and development, alongside or between appointments

  • Parents who prefer learning at their own pace, in their own time.

This library may not be for you if:

  • You’re looking for rigid rules, strict schedules or one-size-fits-all feeding plans

  • You want quick fixes without understanding the “why”
