World Breastfeeding Week 2022

World Breastfeeding Week 2022


I am truly honoured to be in a position to not only support women on their breastfeeding journey but I can also create something very special and unique to commemorate their very personal breastfeeding time too. 

This year for World Breastfeeding Week and to also celebrate Breastival NÍ extending to Derry I have requested some of the many families who have had Breastmilk in Glass made to send me some pictures of their glass.

 

Thank You to all of you who sent these stunning pictures 

 

Enjoy!

As I am sure many of you know by now I am an Advanced Breastfeeding Counsellor as well as a Glass Artist.

I am also a qualified Doula, Infant Massage Instructor, Baby and Toddler Yoga instructor.

But, lets stay focused on the Breastfeeding Counsellor area.

What this entails is that since 2012 I began training in the area of lactation learning. 

I began by training in Peer Support. 

Shortly followed by training in the next level of support which is Breastfeeding Counsellor. I trained with Cuidiu (an Irish based charity formerly known as The Irish Childbirth Trust) 

Qualifying in 2016...

Nipples to Naples

What a rush!

In mid June 2022 I travelled to Naples to view my large breastmilk infused glass breasts exhibited at The Creative Spark Hub.

The exhibition titled “Nudo di Donna”

An exhibition showcasing many international artists working with the female form.

The exhibition runs from June 14th - August 30th 2022.
