Welcome to Health & Babies!

My name is Yulanda Ridge and I am an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), with a keen interest in helping families be healthy – naturally.
(I question anything that’s artificial, and always try to go back to how things were originally created to be. That’s my view, which I will obviously never enforce on anyone, and you are welcome to yours, as long as you afford me the same courtesy 😉 )

Helping moms and babies with their breastfeeding relationship is one of my biggest passions, and nothing can beat the ‘job-satisfaction’ that I feel when I can help a family reach their breastfeeding goals, and see a happy and healthy mother and baby couple!

Please feel free to browse this website, and since I am a non-tech person, currently trying to teach myself to build a website, it IS still under daily or weekly construction, and any suggestions, or kind and constructive comments would be welcome!

(Please check back often, or send a Whatsapp or Telegram message to me on 082 7255 043 should you wish to be informed of any additions or have any suggestions, or health / baby needs)
