About Me

Lactacare consulting

Empowering parents, nurturing bonds

Welcome to Lactacare, and thank you for stopping by!


I’m Eimear, a proud mum of three, a qualified medical doctor, and a certified lactation consultant (IBCLC). My journey into lactation consultancy started with my own experiences as a mother—navigating the joys and challenges of breastfeeding taught me the importance of compassionate, informed support during this unique phase of parenthood.


I’m deeply passionate about empowering women and parents to meet their infant feeding goals, whatever they may be. Whether you’re hoping to breastfeed exclusively, combine feed, or just need guidance through the early days of feeding, I’m here to provide evidence-based advice, practical solutions, and emotional support tailored to you and your baby’s needs.


Through a mix of antenatal and postnatal consultations—both online and in-person—I aim to help you feel confident, informed, and equipped to nourish your little one in a way that works best for your family.


At Lactacare Consulting, I believe in creating a judgement-free, supportive environment where every parent feels heard and valued. Your feeding goals are my priority, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.


Let’s work together to make your infant feeding journey one filled with confidence, connection, and care.
