Sarah is very knowledgeable and I really valued the insights I gained on this course. As an IBCLC and NHS tongue tie specialist midwife, I found it to be a thorough, well researched informative training course. I would highly recommend it to anyone with a keen interest in restrictive lingual frenulum (tongue tie).
This course on tongue tie is very comprehensive. It addresses all the common questions, concerns and misconceptions around tongue tie in a factual and easy to digest way. I have enjoyed working my way through it and would highly recommend it to health professionals and anyone supporting infant feeding.
This course came at a good time having just supported a family where the baby had a posterior tongue-tie which wasn't obvious. As a result of taking this course I feel more confident that I can inform, advise and signpost parents who have concerns.
