Holistic Breastfeeding & Postpartum Support
No more guilt. No more second-guessing. I help expecting mamas get ready, trust their instincts & step into breastfeeding & postpartum with confidence
Hi, I’M ARNIKKA
Founder of SuckleBubs | Creator of In Bloom™
As a Lactation Consultant IBCLC, Neonatal Nurse, and mother, I've seen how modern motherhood & our existing systems leave women unsupported and overwhelmed after birth, especially when breastfeeding and sleep challenges arise.
The truth is that quality breastfeeding & lactation knowledge is shockingly under resourced - and conflicting advice is a huge issue, leaving mothers feeling like failures, often grieving their early motherhood experience.
That's why I created In Bloom™
In Bloom™
Your Postpartum Journey, Supported.
In Bloom™ is a nurturing, 12-week program that blends expert breastfeeding and sleep support with compassionate emotional care.
Whether breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or a combination, this journey honours your motherhood story, without guilt, judgment, or overwhelm.
Because feeding is more than nutrition.
Milk is Mothering™
Without the right support, navigating breastfeeding & postpartum can lead to feelings of overwhelm, self-doubt, and a disconnection from the joyful moments that matter most.
Feeling unsupported during your breastfeeding journey.
Navigating conflicting advice without guidance.
Letting systemic failures undermine your confidence.
Past breastfeeding struggles haunt your confidence now.
Uncertainty leading to anxiety about feeding.
Missing out on the emotional connection.

The hidden costs of not supporting breastfeeding
Doctors receive approximately 2 hours of breastfeeding education in their training, yet are the first to offer advice when challenges arise.
In contrast, a Lactation Consultant IBCLC has over 1000+ hours of direct clinical breastfeeding experience, over 95 hours of lactation specific knowledge and a health science degree.
Who do you want supporting you?
Feeding a newborn can take up to 42 hours a week
This is equivalent to a full-time job with no breaks or training Many mothers and babies cannot access the support they need to troubleshoot early problems like nipple pain, damage, engorgement, mastitis, drowsy babies and infant weight loss
Formula costs approx. $3,000 AUD annually.
This does not include the cost of specialist appointments and emotional grief that often follow when mothers don't receive proper breastfeeding support
