Fundamentals in Tongue-tie Awareness and Treatment Considerations


This online course provides unlimited 24/7 access to the programme and group support area.  It aims to elaborate on your current understanding of tongue function and oral anatomy and acknowledges some of the potential wider implications of untreated tethered ties that are currently being researched globally alongside conservative management approaches and surgical release options.


It is designed with all infant feeding professionals in mind, whether you're a voluntary breastfeeding peer supporter, birth-worker (midwife, doula), health visitor, counsellor or IBCLC.  It can also be considered as 'update theory training' for trained tongue-tie providers too wishing to refresh or revise their theoretical knowledge. Whatever your background, you can be reassured that this course will allow you to gain a better understanding and clarity to confidently support the families you are working with on their unique feeding journeys.


There is no set timeframe or deadline to complete the program, and further reading to elaborate and expand on your knowledge is expected.


This online program has been designed to encourage blended learning with evidence-based theory to underpin and enhance practice. Students are encouraged to reflect on their experience and insights to share their learning amongst peers, making optimum use of the programs unique support group.
