    Thanks Dani for your help and support with our daughter. Contacted Dani after NHS not willing to help with slight tongue tie because she was gaining weight.
    Would definitely recommend Dani... Thanks very much

    **Very highly recommend!**

    We had real difficulties feeding our newborn in the early days and it was suggested that she might be tongue-tied. This was unfortunately missed by several healthcare professionals initially, and we found ourselves receiving lots of different advice, which became quite overwhelming. We were eventually referred to the NHS for a tongue-tie procedure, but given how difficult feeding had become, the wait felt far too long.

    Our daughter had real problems latching, which was extremely painful for my wife and led to very slow weight gain. We felt like there was no end in sight and weren't sure what else to do.

    After searching online, we came across Dani, and from start to finish she was absolutely amazing. From our first phone conversation, she was responsive, knowledgeable and reassuring. She arranged to come out to us very quickly and immediately put us at ease. She was friendly, professional and incredibly warm, taking the time to explain everything clearly and making what felt like a daunting procedure seem very straightforward.

    The combination of the tongue-tie procedure itself and Dani's advice and reassurance, both before and afterwards, made an enormous difference to us. Feeding improved significantly, and just as importantly, we finally felt confident that we were on the right track.

    Dani's service was worth every penny, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone experiencing feeding difficulties with their baby. Our only regrets are that we didn't find her sooner, and that we only encountered her in our stressful circumstances! Thank you so much for everything.

    Danni was incredibly helpful with identifying my my little boy’s tongue tie and is so knowledgeable on the subject. It had been identified by the NHS as something that didn’t need any further action initially and then put on a long referral list When feeding had become near impossible. However, since the procedure we can see, it was definitely needed to happen. Less than 24 hours since the procedure and feeding has started to become so much easier. Plus, from the assessment that was carried out by Danni we noticed how limiting his tongue tie was.

    We had a wonderful experience with Dani when she treated our baby Reuben’s tongue tie. From the very beginning, Dani was incredibly friendly, professional and empathetic. She responded to messages quickly and always took the time to answer any questions or concerns we had, which was so reassuring as new parents.

    The aftercare was exceptional. Dani continued to support us after the procedure, providing advice and guidance over text whenever we needed it. We never felt like we were on our own. Most importantly, we saw a massive improvement in Reuben after his tongue tie was released. The difference was noticeable and it made such a positive impact for both him and us.

    I would highly recommend Dani to any parent considering a tongue tie assessment or treatment. Her expertise, kindness and ongoing support made the whole experience a positive one from start to finish.

    We cannot recommend Dani enough! To any parents considering going private (for tongue tie, or even just feeding advice) we would 100% encourage you to do it, and book an appointment with Dani!

    Dani is genuinely so lovely and personable! She put us at ease instantly and made us feel valued and listened to. Dani reached out to us multiple times in between appointments and really made us feel like she was only a message away. It’s very obvious just how passionate Dani is about her job. Dani spoke to us in simple terms and really took the time to listen and answer our concerns.

    How we came to visit Dani…

    We noticed our son was tongue tied quite early on after his birth, after it was missed by the midwife team. Once we raised this, it was passed off as ‘a little’ tongue tied and there was no concern as he was gaining weight - we persevered with his never ending top up feeds (as he was never satisfied after a bottle). At 8 weeks he eventually got an NHS referral however we decided to go private as we’d been advised that the wait times were long! We were booked in with Dani within one working day!

    At our first appointment with Dani, she identified how severe our son’s tongue tie was. Dani’s assessment was extremely thorough and although not a pleasant experience for any baby, made our son as comfortable as possible, and also us! Given how tight the tongue tie was, Dani didn’t feel it was appropriate for the frenulotomy procedure to be done the same day, and recommended we return in a few weeks.

    Dani sent us away with lots of recommendations (trying different bottle teats, booking an Osteopath for bodywork, mouth exercises and different feeding positions). Before even having the frenulotomy procedure, we could see a big difference in our son’s feeding after making the changes Dani suggested - this improved his sleeping and he seemed much more happier in himself.

    Three weeks after the initial appointment, we returned to Dani, to hopefully go ahead with the frenulotomy procedure. Dani carried out the assessment again and was happy to go ahead that same day! Immediately after the procedure we could see that our son’s latch was better.

    The procedure was only done yesterday, so we’re excited to see the improvements once our son gets used to his new way of feeding, now he has the freedom.

    Our son had a missed tongue tie and we were having lots of issues with a colicky baby especially in an evening Impacting bedtime for my toddler. Dani was recommended to me and I am so glad I contacted her. She responded really promptly and was really approachable. The screening prior to the actual appointment is really thorough and it is clear that she has read up on your information ahead of the day. Dani put me at ease and explained really clearly the processes and benefits and risks and I felt I was able to make an informed choice for my son. Since having his tongue tie release he is so much happier and the aftercare has been great and reassuring too.
    Dani has also recently started a lovely informative but relaxed feeding group locally which I've found really helpful too.
    I found Dani to be professional, clearly very knowledgeable but also very personable and I felt able to trust her to provide just what my son needed. She was wonderful with our son and clearly such a compassionate mama herself. Would highly recommend her to others

    I reached out to Dani with some questions about my child’s tongue tie, and she was absolutely brilliant. She was incredibly knowledgeable, took the time out of her day to talk through everything with me, and gave me such helpful, valuable advice. She’s such a kind and caring person, and I really appreciate her support – thank you so much!

    Dani came to assess my little boy for tongue tie. She was thorough and explained everything clearly so we could make an informed decision. The process was quick and my little boy was happy after his feed and has continued to show great signs of improvement even 2 days post procedure. The continued support after a long with all the supportive material adds comfort to a worrying mamma! Couldn’t recommend her enough and will be sending any of my family and friends her way who may need further assistance than the doctors can offer.

    I cannot recommend Dani enough!! After a long process waiting for a NHS appointment I reached out to Dani for some much needed feeding support and tongue division review.

    I was aware that my daughter Poppy had an anterior tongue tie from birth and found that my community midwife was not initially concerned as her latch appeared effective. However, as days passed, I found issues started to creep in. She would often slide off the nipple due to a poor latch, leading to multiple attempts to re latch, distress and excess wind. I could also hear clicking during the feeds and milk would be visible around her mouth and down her neck post feed. Although her weight loss was deemed within a normal centile, I could see she was struggling with wind and I was exhausted in the night due to ineffective milk transfer. After waiting several weeks for an assessment with the NHS I reached out to Dani.

    After a thorough assessment of my daughters feeding, we made the decision to complete the tongue tie division. Within 24 hours there was a noticeable difference with her latch, her seel around my breast and her wind. I now feel like our feeds are much more efficient and enjoyable. Poppy is so much more relaxed and content post feeds.

    Dani is so approachable, understanding and knowledgeable. I would give 100 ⭐️'s if possible. Thank you so so much for all of your support💓

    Initially, our baby was incorrectly cleared of tongue tie by a NHS specialist when she was a few days old. Yet every other professional we saw after always commented on her tongue tie. We struggled with painful latches, extremely long feeds, weight loss, and I was having to use nipples shields. My baby showed lots of other tongue tie signs, however being a FTM I wasn’t aware of what to look out for.

    One night we decided to at least get our baby reassessed. When we reached out late at night, Dani responded quickly and came to our home the next day! She confirmed the tongue tie, educated us patiently, and guided us with exercises. Dani was also a huge help with different latching techniques that I now use daily with my little one. The procedure and support made a huge difference to our breastfeeding journey which I believe would be over if we hadn’t of found Dani. We are incredibly grateful and would highly recommend her.
