How we can work together

Hello
I am Aoife
Founder of
Back to Birth Education

I am a Clinical Midwife Specialist, Certified Childbirth Educator, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), with over twelve years of experience supporting families across public and private hospitals in Ireland and abroad. This gives me a unique perspective on pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and newborn care.
 
At Back to Birth Education, I bring this knowledge into a modern, inclusive, and supportive space. I offer virtual and in person antenatal, postnatal, and breastfeeding classes, in private homes and group settings as well as in home breastfeeding support in Dublin, helping you and your baby feed comfortably, confidently, and with personalised guidance. My aim is to provide practical guidance, reassurance, and tailored support, helping you and your partner feel confident, empowered, and supported from pregnancy through the early weeks with your baby.
 
I’m endlessly inspired by the magic of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. One of the most rewarding parts of being a midwife and lactation consultant is supporting families to trust their bodies, follow their instincts, and make informed choices for themselves and their babies. You are not alone if you’ve ever felt uncertain or anxious about newborn care or breastfeeding. Back to Birth Education was created to bridge this exact gap, providing evidence-based guidance, practical strategies, and compassionate support so you can feel confident, reassured, and ready for the early days with your baby.
