Meet your midwife

Hey, I’m Nikkayla!

I’m an Endorsed Midwife, Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a Baby-Led Sleep Consultant. I’m also a wife and mum to one.

Milky Dreams has grown to be a full spectrum of care, starting from pregnancy all the way through to early parenthood. Giving you the strength and support you need to birth and mother your baby, your way.

Continuity of midwifery carer is ‘gold standard’. It’s about connecting with each other, care that is personalised to you, time to talk and support and the same familiar face all the way through to 6 weeks post birth.

I strongly believe that it is your choice where and how you grow, birth and nurture your baby. There is no one size fits all care, I’m here to empower you to make informed choices that are right for your family.

It’s about autonomy, respect and trust.

GET IN TOUCH

“…it was everywhere I turned, the information didn’t align with my values and made me feel like I was failing. Stressed and frustrated, I felt I was turning into a mum I never wanted to be. Always hungry for evidence based information, I turned to educating myself on biologically normal infant sleep. It was here, that I knew I had to share this and help other families deep in the trenches themselves.”

A nurturing approach

My approach to sleep and lactation support is attachment focused. I will also investigate any underlying causes of your baby or child’s sleep disturbance so that these can be addressed, so I also take an evidence based approach. I do not use any form of sleep training that involves limiting or withholding your comfort and support. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you have any questions, so you can feel confident that my approach is the right fit for you and your family.
