What support are you looking for?
Your baby is new.
So is this version of you.
You’re meeting your baby, and they’re meeting you.
There is feeding to learn, broken nights to move through and a whole new little person whose sounds, cues and needs you’re beginning to understand.
You aren’t meant to know it all from day one. It evolves in relationship.
I’m here to help you understand how to prepare, feel more confident, and navigate the journey of feeding, sleep and your relationship with your baby.

The relationship between you and your baby is at the the heart of how I work.
Sucklebubs brings together breastfeeding physiology, newborn development and your transition into motherhood and early parenting, because feeding, sleep, behaviour and maternal-infant wellbeing are all interconnected.
Hi, I’m Arnikka.
I’m an IBCLC, neonatal registered nurse, NDC practitioner and mum of two.
For the past 10 years, I’ve cared for newborns and supported families through feeding, sleep and the early weeks of parenthood.
I created SuckleBubs because I believe support should begin before birth. Before you are tired, recovering and trying to work everything out at once.
Families deserve clear, evidence-based preparation during pregnancy, with trusted support that can continue once their baby arrives.
My work brings together breastfeeding, newborn development, sleep, sensory needs and the real experience of early parenthood. I look at you and your baby together, rather than treating feeding, sleep or behaviour as separate problems.
Sometimes you need reassurance about what is common. Sometimes you need practical support. And sometimes something needs individual care.
My role is to help you prepare, know when to reach for help, and have somewhere trusted to turn when you do.
Find the support you need right now.
Whether you are preparing for your baby or already navigating feeding and sleep, start with the support that fits where you are.
