About Me
I began my NHS career in 2005 after qualifying as an adult gynaecology nurse, before moving into midwifery a year later and qualifying in 2008.
Over the past 18 years as a midwife, my passion for supporting and guiding new parents has only grown. For seven years, I worked as a tongue-tie specialist midwife within the NHS before deciding to offer the service privately. I love this role and, wanting to expand my skills in infant feeding, I went on to complete the IBCLC course.
In July 2026, after 21 years with the NHS, I took the leap to become an Independent Midwife.
“Becoming an Independent Midwife takes courage, conviction, and an unwavering belief in the care you provide.”

Anna is very friendly, approachable and clearly very knowledgeable. Her vast experience is clear in the first appointment and she was able to offer us reassurance, helpful tips and also confirm a tongue tie for us. She was also able to answer some follow-up questions we had after sorting the tongue tie and we’ve left the experience feeling a lot better. I also know if we had any more queries, she’d be happy to help. Would completely recommend to anyone who has questions or looking for peace of mind.Posted on Google![]()

I highly recommend WilOak to support any family with feeding and lactation concerns. Anna is welcoming, friendly and extremely supportive. Anna takes time to listen and provides easy to understand options to improve your feeding experience. After 5 weeks of struggling with pain and latching Anna was able to instantly identify not only a posterior tongue tie but other areas to address. Within one consultation my feeding journey was transformed. Anna was extremely gentle with my little boy, who was instantly giving her smiles. WilOak provides ongoing support and resources and responds extremely rapidly to any enquiry or email. I wish I had contacted WilOak sooner.Posted on Google![]()

Anna was so helpful with our son's tongue tie. She explained all our options really clearly, and answered all our questions. The procedure was handled really quickly with very little stress to our baby and he's already feeding much better and seems much happier. So glad we went to her instead of waiting to see what happened or trying to get seen on the NHSPosted on Google![]()

Anna is simply wonderful. She is kind, knowledgable, skilled and instantly put my mind at ease after identifying that my daughter had a tongue tie. Anna visited our house and discussed the various options that were available to us as parents. Anna performed a frenotomy and my daughter barely noticed a thing! Would recommend her to any parent wholeheartedly!Posted on Google![]()

Couldn’t be more grateful to Anna at Wiloak Lactation Consultancy, for taking the time to listen and really understand me and my baby and our feeding journey so far. Anna was thorough and made me feel heard, and gave some really helpful recommendations on how to proceed with some issues we’ve been experiencing. Worth every penny! Thank you Anna!Posted on Google![]()

Anna was exactly who we needed - reassuring, informative, knowledgeable and so kind. Sorted our baby's (unknown) tongue tie out and now we are back to breastfeeding in such an improved way 😊Posted on Google![]()

Anna was fantastic. Incredibly knowledgeable, really personable and excellent with my baby. She ensured he and I were both relaxed and ready before dividing his tongue tie. She had a wonderful demeanour with my baby who was smiling, giggling and really relaxed thanks to her efforts to build a relationship with him first. I have already recommended her to friends the day after our appointment and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone needing support with breastfeeding/tongue tie.

This is the second pregnancy I've called upon Anna for help! The first pregnancy my son was badly tongue tied and struggled with feeding due to also being born premature and jaundice, so Anna did his tongue tie Division and... read more helped me with latching and feeding positions. Im yet to have baby no.2 but have finally now reached 37 weeks so called upon Anna again to help give me a refresher antenatally and seek advice and guidance on colostrum harvesting which im now able to do myself! Anna is super friendly and consultations are always really relaxed, you feel like you're just having a chat to a friend... Just a very knowledgeable and passionate one! Im definitely going to have Anna visit me again postnatally to ensure I dont run into any avoidable feeding problems, check early on for tongue tie and ensure babies latch is good from the start!

She is who I recommend to everyone as an antenatal teacher myself and she has been an amazing support for my own postnatal feeding journey.... read more I cannot thank Anna enough and truly believe my feeding journey would have been very different without her.
