Penny Heywood

IBCLC Lactation Consultant

I am an IBCLC Lactation Consultant with a special interest in a holistic approach.

I especially love supporting women –

especially when they start the very exciting journey of becoming a mum.

​

I have been a breastfeeding peer supporter in Lewisham since 2014. I volunteer at the Breastfeeding group on Tuesdays in Deptford and also at Lewisham Hospital on the Neonatal ward.

I have since qualified as a Lactation Consultant and I really enjoy working 1-1 with women (and their families) in their home environment supporting them to breastfeed. Each woman and her baby (or

babies) is different and it is a joy and a privilege to work with families at this very special time.
