Mo Brownlee BA RN RM ADM IBCLC
Midwife and International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant based in Edinburgh.
Hello, I am Mo the founder and owner of Nurture Breastfeeding. I believe that every breastfeeding journey deserves compassionate, individualised support. Learn more about my mission, my values, and the heart behind the care I offer to mothers and babies as a Breastfeeding Consultant.
With a foundation in nursing and midwifery, I qualified as a midwife in 1986. Since then, I have built a deeply fulfilling career across clinical practice, leadership, and teaching. Over time, however, I found myself increasingly drawn to supporting mothers on their breastfeeding journey. This passion eventually led me to specialise in lactation.

Starting in 2012, I had the privilege of working in the Lothian Breastfeeding Clinics. There, I supported mothers facing a wide range of breastfeeding challenges, from straightforward issues to more complex situations. Later, in 2017, I established my private practice to offer more personalised care. The following year, I became an International Board-Certified Breastfeeding Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), enhancing my knowledge to deliver the highest standard of support.
In addition to my professional work, I’m also a mother of three — including twins — and have experienced both the joys and the challenges of breastfeeding firsthand. Therefore, I understand how unique each family’s journey can be. I’m passionate about offering evidence-based, compassionate care that truly meets you where you are.
If you choose to work with me, you can expect warm, respectful, and expert support tailored to your needs. Whether you’re seeking guidance, reassurance, or hands-on help, I’m here to walk alongside you.
