A little bit about me.

My name is Andrea Laidler and I have been an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant for over 20 years. I am also a Registered Nurse and Midwife and have obtained a Graduate Diploma in Health Services Management and qualifications in parenting and breastfeeding education along the way.

I have had the pleasure of working with families in the postnatal and infant critical care setting for over 30 years assisting them on their breastfeeding journey. Whether it is teaching the basics or providing the support required for more complex breastfeeding challenges I’ve been there.

My areas of expertise are preterm infants and medical conditions requiring extra support particularly where there are slow weight gains, an undersupply of breastmilk and developmental concerns. Remember any amount of breastfeeding is beneficial for you and your baby and it’s not just about nutrition.

My goal is to listen and learn from you and your baby and together we will achieve the best possible breastfeeding outcomes for you both.

My practice adheres to the IBCLE Code of Professional Conduct.
