Specialist Tongue-Tie Assessment & Division (London & South West)
CQC-registered clinical care and lactation support by Anika Riesen, RM. Expert 2-hour home consultations in North London and Greater London and across Dorset & Somerset.
Expert Clinical Evaluation
A thorough 2-hour assessment of your baby’s oral anatomy, feeding history, and tongue mobility (ankyloglossia). We observe a full feed to identify the root cause of any challenges.
Safe, Precise Division
If a restriction is identified, a gentle frenulotomy (tongue-tie division) can be performed during the same visit. This minor surgical procedure is quick, precise, and CQC-registered for your peace of mind.
Hands-On Support
Includes immediate post-procedure feeding support, gentle oral exercises, and a bespoke feeding plan. Every family receives unlimited text/email follow-up and a complimentary 4-week re-assessment if needed.

Please Note: The prices below cover your comprehensive 2-hour clinical assessment and feeding support. If a tongue-tie division (frenotomy) is indicated and performed during the visit, an additional surgical fee of £100 (London) or £70 (South West) applies. There are no additional mileage costs if I return another day to do the division.

Midwifery Packages
Your Motherhood Journey - Full Continuity of Care
Experience the gold standard of continuity with bespoke antenatal, homebirth, and postnatal care. Our packages are designed to provide your full clinical care, meaning you do not need to access NHS midwifery services, unless you choose to. From your first appointment through to your baby’s birth, you receive unhurried, expert support in your own home. Read more about homebirth here or more about my philosophy of care.
Antenatal Care
Dedicated single sessions or packages of care for parents who require professional clinical input or immediate reassurance. These unhurried visits are perfect for securing Mat B1 forms, Fit to Fly letters, and private blood testing such as the NIPT. Whether you are using this as a complement to existing care or as a standalone private check, we provide a thorough, uncompressed clinical environment tailored to your immediate needs.
Postnatal & Newborn Care
Expert Newborn and Maternal Wellness. Our postnatal care is designed to support the physical and emotional recovery of the mother alongside the health of the newborn. Your fourth trimester matters. We provide hospital-standard newborn physical examinations (NIPE) within 72 hours of birth and Day 5 bloodspot screenings in the comfort of your home. Each visit prioritises maternal physical recovery and healing, ensuring you are cared for just as closely as your baby. Specialist breastfeeding guidance is available for both single visits and integrated packages.
