Breast Feeding Support Group at The Backbone Osteopathy Practice Southgate, North London

One of the most common complaints we hear from parents regarding our baby patients at The Backbone Osteopathy Clinics Southgate & Muswell Hill is issues with latch or digestive issues connected to feeding issues. You may assume that breastfeeding is straightforward but unfortunately this isn't always the case. It can be tough both physically and emotionally and it can take time to build up your confidence. Let our team of Osteopaths and Lactation Consultant support you in your breastfeeding journey.

At The Backbone Osteopathy Clinics Southgate & Muswell Hill we have collaborated with Lactation Consultant Carla Montaldo who will be facilitating Breast Feeding Support Groups every Wed. These sessions will be a combination of group sessions at our Southgate Branch and Online.

Carla Montaldo M.D. (Arg) Paediatrician & IBCLC, IAIM, Doula & Lactation Consultant.

Carla qualified from School of Medicine, Buenos Aires University, in 1997. She trained in Paediatric Internal Medicine and has 15 years experience working as a Paediatrician consultant prior to moving to the UK where she pursued a career as a lactation consultant. Carla qualified as a Lactation Consultant after 22 years working with Mothers and Babies Dyads, 5 years of intense courses of breastfeeding and training with other IBCLC. She has experience supporting mothers and babies of all backgrounds, with a clear feeding plan according to the individual needs of each. Carla is fluent in English & Spanish.

“I think working with an holistic approach in terms of breastfeeding physiology is the best way to
address any issue. I advise on pain free attachments, relaxing techniques for the baby and the
family, mother dietary evaluation, and also working together to find solutions to parenting
struggles such as family sleep, bonding with your baby or planning to return to work.” Carla Montaldo 2021
