Rachel Priestley
Lactation Consultant
IBCLC
I’m an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and I entered the field of infant feeding in 2006. I have since enjoyed some of the most fulfilling work I can imagine. My broad practice has included over a decade of working for the NHS in a busy maternity unit, and a level 3 Neonatal Unit, and additionally working for a breastfeeding charity, and for a human milk bank as a Breastfeeding Specialist.
In 2016 I ventured into private practice. I feel it is incredibly important for families to have the option for feeding support from an IBCLC throughout their journey – starting before their babies arrive and extending until they feel comfortable. I have a special interest in supporting LGBTQI+ and surrogacy journeys.
