Your lactation consultant in Munich
Breastfeeding is something completely natural – but not always easy. Many mothers face uncertainty, pain, or conflicting advice in the first weeks. During these times, having someone who listens, supports, and guides you makes all the difference.
About me
I’m Julia, a certified breastfeeding consultant (DAIS) and mom to a little boy. I’m here to support you throughout your breastfeeding journey, with all its questions, uncertainties, and special moments.
From my own experience, I know that challenges can arise at any stage of breastfeeding. This inspired me to support other mothers, with empathy, expertise, and genuine support.
I support you in understanding the causes of possible breastfeeding challenges and in finding individual solutions that fit you and your baby. My approach is evidence-based, independent of industry interests, and guided by the WHO Code.
The needs of the little ones are just as important as those of their parents. Treating everyone with care and respect, as equals, is particularly important to me.
I’m here for you in Munich and its suburbs – either in the comfort of your own home or by phone. Soon, I’ll also be offering antenatal breastfeeding workshops to help you get ready already during pregnancy.
I’m looking forward to supporting you, your partner, and your baby during this special time.
Consultations and workshops
Lactation consultation
In a personalised breastfeeding consultation, I take the time to assess you and your baby’s individual situation. I’ll address any questions and develop practical solutions for a relaxed breastfeeding routine. My goal is to help you feel confident and truly enjoy this special time with your baby.
Antenatal breastfeeding workshop
This introduction to breastfeeding is perfect for expectant mums and their partners who want to find out more about breastfeeding before they give birth. I provide evidence-based guidance and practical tips to help you feel confident and ready from the very start.
Lactation consultation
Most women can breastfeed naturally, but sometimes the journey doesn’t start as smoothly as expected, or challenges emerge along the way. Many mothers face uncertainty, pain, or receive conflicting advice, making breastfeeding more challenging.
As a certified breastfeeding consultant (DAIS), I help you identify underlying causes and develop solutions that work specifically for you and your baby – with an individualized, evidence-based approach and without any pressure.
I can provide support with:
- Breastfeeding preparation during pregnancy
- Breastfeeding in the newborn phase
- Latching and positioning challenges
- Low breastmilk supply
- Nipple pain and soreness
- Baby restlessness during feeding
- Nursing strikes and nipple confusion
- Insufficient weight gain in babies
- Breast engorgement and mastitis
- Expressing milk (manual or pumping)
- Balancing breastfeeding with work
- Weaning process
Antenatal breastfeeding workshop
While taking a birth preparation workshop is a given for most parents-to-be, few women consciously prepare for breastfeeding. Yet this is the real key to a successful start, a journey that begins during pregnancy, not after birth.
In my antenatal breastfeeding workshop, you’ll gain the knowledge and confidence needed to begin your breastfeeding journey well-prepared. I’ll teach you how to recognize, understand, and respond to common challenges – so after birth, you can focus on what truly matters: those precious first moments with your baby.
Did you know that approximately 90% of breastfeeding relationships fail or never fully develop because of inadequate support at the beginning in hospitals?
Lack of guidance, outdated myths, and conflicting advice can quickly create uncertainty – especially during the postpartum period. This is precisely where my course helps: I prepare you for potential challenges, strengthen your knowledge, and build your confidence.
By the end, you’ll know:
- how to ensure a smooth breastfeeding start
- how to recognize early signs of problems
- when to seek support
- and most importantly: what is truly normal – and what is not
Because you and your baby deserve the very best beginning to your breastfeeding relationship.

Some breastfeeding questions and challenges can be effectively addressed over the phone. In most cases, though, an in-person assessment of you and your baby is essential to gain a complete understanding of your situation and develop a personalized solution. For an initial home consultation, I typically set aside about 90 minutes. All follow-up sessions are customized to address your specific needs and concerns. Please note that home visits incur an additional travel fee of €1.25 per kilometer.
Important information
- Appointments are binding. Please also refer to my Terms & Conditions.
- The costs for my services typically require private payment, as public health insurance does not yet routinely cover them. However, it’s still worth submitting the invoice—especially in case you don’t have postpartum midwife care, your chances of (full) reimbursement are quite good.
- My services do not replace medical treatment. For health concerns or emergencies, please contact your midwife or doctor.
