What will you learn?

Lactation Education Counselor and Polish Speech and Language Therapist specialising in working with infants.

Weronika began her journey of working with breastfeeding dyads as a speech and language therapist, helping newborns and infants with tongue-tie, disorganised sucking reflex and other myofunctional and structural difficulties that led to ineffective, painful breastfeeding.

She has completed numerous courses in this area.

Through this experienceshe fell in love with supporting Mothers and Babies at the very beginning of their journey.

She completed the Lactation Education Counsellor course at the University of San Diego, California, which gave her an even broader view of the breastfeeding process.

Her mission is to help you make the best baby feeding choices for your dyad, because everyone’s Milky Way is unique. She believes in making informed decisions, that come from your heart together with the up-to-date knowledge in lactation. Combining the two, she is there to educate, assess, guide and partner with you to find the most personal, joyful and effective solutions in your breastfeeding journey.
