I’m Shterna, and this is my family! I’m from Melbourne, my husband is from Sydney and we  have 5 kids, the youngest are 1 year old twins

I work as a Midwife in a public hospital and also do private lactation appointments.

I love helping women understand their breastfeeding struggles and finding ways to work through it together. 

I love explaining things so that women understand what’s happening to them and why, and want to help women learn to trust themselves and trust their instincts. 

As mothers in a world with so much information everywhere we look, we end up feeling like we know less and not more, and start to question everything (especially when we are told the baby is “ABC” and we need to “XYZ”). It then becomes hard to rely on our instincts when we are being told that what we have naturally done wasn’t good enough. 

Mothers literally know their babies best; they are physically a part of us, and us a part of them

I love cooking and baking and sometimes sneak recipes into my stories on account of them being relevant bc “good for babies on solids”

My true passion is making sure women feel safe and happy with their feeding journey and I want to help them achieve their feeding goals- whatever they may be. 

I truly believe we all do what we feel is right for us and our families, and I will help you achieve your goals of exclusive breastfeeding, mixed feeding, exclusive pumping or help you wean off breastmilk onto formula; any path is your path and I want to help you feel confident and right in your choices! 

I try to normalise breastfeeding challenges on this page, not to say that BF is always hard and needs fixing but to spread awareness that you are NOT alone in whatever it is you are facing. So many of the things you are experiencing are so so common and we can find a way to fix it! 

The single most important factor in successful breastfeeding is good support! (Along with a good latch)
