About Clare Byam-Cook
Clare is SRN.SCM, is a trained nurse and midwife with over twenty years experience with the last eighteen spent at Christine Hill’s antenatal practice in London. She is a breastfeeding expert whose celebrity client list includes Trinny & Susannah, Elizabeth Murdoch, Helena Bonham Carter, Gabby Logan, Nicola Formby, Daisy Donovan and Lucy Rusedski. Her success rates in helping mothers to breastfeed are phenomenal: a dept of Health survey in 2000 found that only 42% of new mothers who start breastfeeding are still doing so at 6 weeks. However for those mothers with existing breastfeeding problems who consult Clare, at least 87% of them are still breastfeeding 6 weeks later.
