Tors Pearcy IBCLC - Breastfeeding Support

Tors is a superhero. She helped me so much after my daughter was born and struggling with breastfeeding. She was ready to help every minute of the day and nothing was ever to much trouble. She has such a kind heart and I highly reccomend Tors! Thank you so, so much. X

Tors completely changed my experience of breastfeeding. I was only 3 weeks into breastfeeding my little boy and I was ready to give up. Tors has such a lovely way of helping, she empowered me with knowledge and tools to continue feeding. I can’t recommend enough!

I was extremely lucky to have received help from Tors while breastfeeding both my babies. In my opinion, if it was not for Tors' support i would not have carried on my feeding journies. I was having difficulty with latch and Tors helped me tweak my positions to enable me to feed painfree. Tors was always at the end of a mssage to guide me on my way and I will be forever greatful. I am currently still EBF my little boy at 9 month!I can not recommend this lady enough, fantastic at what she does! Very approachable and always willing to listen, advise and support.

Tors helped us for much of a very difficult breastfeeding journey and, if it wasn't for her help, guidance and extensive knowledge, we definitely wouldn't have made it as far as we did. If anyone had said to me that I'd still be breastfeeding at 3 months, let alone beyond the first month, I'd have laughed (and then promptly cried!). But she helped us navigate a difficult journey so that there were times that even involved me looking forward to feeding - something I never thought would happen! However, my little one had tongue tie issues that, despite our best efforts, made breast feeding just too uncomfortable to continue. But this wasn't the end of Tors! She not only provides breastfeeding advice but infant feeding in general and was fully supportive of our decision to transition to formula and really helped us own that decision. She provided advice on how to pace feed, the practicalities of preparing bottles and was so kind in her reassurance that I had made the right decision. I cannot recommend Tors enough, whatever your feeding journey.

I cannot recommend spending time with Tors enough. She saved our sanity when we were tired and helped us to get our feeding journey back on track in a way that was tailored to our needs as a family (with absolutely no pressure to breastfeed).I reached out to Tors when we found out I was having issues with establishing my milk supply and she was able to offer a home visit the following day. Our main concern was baby's weight loss so Tors focused on helping us develop a feeding plan that addressed these issues.We instantly felt at ease and relaxed during the session, as she ensured we were in the driving seat throughout. The session was completely tailored to the support we needed. There was no pressure to breastfeed, Tors is all about supporting families on their feeding journey, whatever that may look like. She has so many great hints and tips that can make everything work better for you. This enabled us to review our situation and pick and choose solutions that worked for us as a family.Even if you think you're all sorted and it's going well, Tors can help make it even better, so get some time booked in with her if you can - you honestly won't regret it.

Tors was absolutely amazing and would recommend her to anyone having feeding difficulties - it may seem expensive but is worth every penny! We came to her after a traumatic birth and having had conflicting advice and support from various staff in the hospital feeling very stressed out due to me being very unwell following birth. She did a thorough oral assessment on our little boy, helped us make a good combi feeding/pumping plan while awaiting further assessments. After identifying he clearly had issues with his tongue function and problems with tension in his neck and jaw, we saw an osteopath and a tongue tie practitioner and a week on from his tongue division, the improvement is dramatic following Tors' advice and tweaks to latching and changing nipple shield size. I feel less stressed, baby is much happier and we are continuing on our breastfeeding journey when we were very close to giving up! She also gave us great support with pacing his bottle feeding and trying different positions - this wasn't something that was a priority for hospital staff (or something they seemed as aware of) and we were grateful for her recommendations as they really supported breastfeeding but also reduced other issues for our baba (lots of wind, hiccups, getting fussy and intermittently struggling to take the bottle during feeds).I'd recommend her to anyone and her follow up support was brilliant and helped keep me calm when I felt at my wit's end with a screaming baby who would not latch and was very distressed at my breast. If you're having issues feeding (not just exclusively breastfeeding!) then definitely book a consult in. You don't need to struggle and feeding shouldn't be difficult.

Tors provided much needed help and support when I was on the verge of stopping breast feeding. She immediately made me feel at ease and gave me the confidence to persevere by helping with his latch and pointing me in the right direction to get my baby the help he needed (had a posterior tongue tie and tension in neck which needed attention from an Osteopath).Could not recommend her enough- I’m a second time mum who breast fed the first for 19 months with similar difficulties, wish I’d found Tors earlier!!

Before seeing Tors I was getting close to giving up on my BF journey at 4 weeks PP. Having faced difficulties with latching - a tongue tie division the week before and multiple cranial osteopath sessions, I was pumping around the clock and completely exhausted. Tors was so kind and honest from the very beginning, and made sure no time was wasted in our 90 minute appointment. She made detailed observations, giving immediate advice and correcting positioning. We discussed our full history to get a clear understanding to give the best advice. Tors has excellent knowledge and answered the many questions I had, and has continued to do so over messages.Now at nearly 7 weeks PP i am finally breaking through and almost exclusively BF.I was quickly losing hope before I saw Tors, and would recommend anyone having difficulties with BF to book an appointment as it can help transform your journey. Thank you Tors x

I would highly recommend Tors! She has been fantastic helping me and my little girl in our breastfeeding journey and continues to provide us follow up support as we work through our issues. Her care and advice has been personal and tailored to our situation, she has liased with midwives and health visitors to ensure continuity of care and the evidence base behind her recommendations is exactly what we needed as a family. I am so pleased we reached out for her help!
