Testimonials

“This [antenatal] course was incredible - factual, non-judgmental and generally an amazing way to prepare for the birth and for early parenthood. As a lactation consultant, Liora's focus on feeding, and the reality of infant sleep was invaluable. Liora created a sense of community and the women I met and their babies have become family to me. The biggest benefit though was meeting Liora! Liora has been a trusted source of [breastfeeding and sleep] support and calm, evidence-based wisdom since I had my daughter. Her unique and vast experience and skills mean she has a holistic view of your baby and of you, as a mother, but also as an individual, and I cannot recommend her and her services highly enough. There is so much conflicting and damaging information out there and Liora is a port within the storm - I think every new parent needs a Liora and I am so grateful to have found her. "

"I first chatted with Liora when my baby was about 6 months old. I had been suffering with some postnatal depression and struggling to process a very stressful pregnancy, birth and post-partum period. I had spoken to a few professionals by this point but still felt like I hadn’t been able to move forward from how I was feeling. I had such a huge sense of relief after my first [counselling] session with Liora. She truly took the time to listen to me, and was incredibly empathetic and kind. It was the first time I’d really felt heard! She checked in with me between sessions, which I really appreciated. She listened without judgement, and when I was ready for some advice she gently helped me troubleshoot various issues including sleep, feeding and parenting. I really appreciated that she shared similar values to me in terms of being a responsive parent and her advice and guidance was in line with this. I had also been struggling with my toddler's behavior and it was really helpful being able to discuss this with Liora and get some perspective and her wisdom on the situation. She truly made a big impact on my motherhood journey and I will be forever grateful to her for helping me through my dark patch. "

"The [antenatal] class was informative, judgement-free, and helped alleviate so much of our worries about having our first baby. Liora was an incredible kaiako, drawing on years of experience and her own firsthand knowledge to get us all ready for our huge life change… I don't know what I would have done without the friends I made at Liora's classes, and she was instrumental in setting us up as a group.”

"Liora’s [antenatal] class was such a safe and supportive space. She made sure everyone was comfortable and made you feel like no questions were too silly. Liora has such a kind and warm nature so made the whole experience amazing. The information was thorough and helpful and I really felt the course helped me in the build up to birth and motherhood. Liora was also great at building a camaraderie amongst attendees and we still after a year and a half are friends and keep in contact. Liora was also very supportive with any questions I had after giving birth and was always happy to help with a message or a call. She is fabulous and would highly recommend her classes and support."
