Hi, I’M ARNIKKA

Most new mothers feel exhausted, underprepared, and unsure who to trust, especially when it comes to breastfeeding, infant sleep and adjusting to life with a newborn.

One person says one thing, another says the opposite. The system wasn’t built for you, and it shows.

That's why I created In Bloom™

In Bloom™

Your Postpartum Journey, Supported.

In Bloom™ is a 12-week breastfeeding & postpartum mentorship designed to give you the support that google, rigid routines, outdated advice and one-off consults never could.

Whether breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or a combination, this journey honours your motherhood story, without guilt, judgment, or overwhelm. Because Milk is Mothering™.

Don’t wait until:

  • You’re worrying about your baby’s weight gain, nipple pain, drowsy behaviours, or how you’ll survive sleep deprivation

  • You’re not sure who to trust, everyone tells you to do something different

  • Lack of support makes you feel like you're failing, even when you're trying your hardest

  • Drowning in conflicting advice & late-night Google searches, disconnecting you from intuition

  • Second-guessing your instincts, feeling like you're doing it all wrong.

You don’t have to do this alone

Get the expert support you deserve, before the stress takes over.

It's Time for a Better Way

  • Receive personalised guidance throughout postpartum.

  • Develop deep attunement with your baby.

  • Navigate breastfeeding/bottlefeeding challenges with expert help.

  • Enjoy a holistic approach to mothering.

My mission is to prevent adversity from happening in the first place, rather than waiting for a referral at your 6 week check up.

did you know?

Feeding a newborn in the first three months alone takes approximately 42 hours per week

(whether breastfed or bottle fed)

This is equivalent to a full-time job with no breaks or training

Formula costs approximately $3,000 AUD annually

This does not include the specialist appointments and emotional grief that often follow when mothers don't receive proper breastfeeding support.

Most doctors receive just 2 hours of breastfeeding education during medical training

Yet are often the first to offer advice when challenges arise

What’s the real cost of struggling through postpartum alone?
