I am a Registered Midwife and regulated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council. I am also a Midwife Newborn Examiner, Tongue-Tie Practitioner, Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Infant feeding Specialist, a Craniosacral Therapist and Reflexologist.

​

You can check my midwifery qualifications and registration by looking on the NMC website at Registration - The Nursing and Midwifery Council (nmc.org.uk)  Pin Number: 80I3873E Jayne Cozens.

​

I qualified as a nurse in 1983 and a midwife in 1992.  Since being a midwife, I worked on delivery suite and in the community as a senior midwife team leader and I specialised in feeding practices in the Trust where I qualified.  During my midwifery career I have completed numerous courses and studies on infant feeding, including attendance at many conferences by different providers.

 

In 2013 I became a Senior Infant Feeding Coordinator and lead the midwifery and neonatal team to achieve the UNICEF fully accredited Baby Friendly Hospital accolade for my local Trust.  In 2016 I became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant within my role and in 2017 I set up a new Tongue-Tie Service for the Trust, enabling parents to have thier babies assessed and treated for tongue-tie in which I was the lead and only practitioner.  

​

I left the Trust in 2020 to persue private practice, so I could 

concentrate on giving parents a unique service encompassing all of my skills and knowledge.  A service that is evidence based and holistic, giving parents the time needed to assist with their feeding journey and enjoy their babies.   I also wanted to increase capacity for my holistic therapies and have my own clinic.

​

In July  2020 I began  working for PrivateMidwives.com as a Tongue-Tie Practitioner until August 2025. I now work with Sarah Oakley who covers me under her Care Quality Commission registration.

​

I have been a International Board Certified Lactation Consultant since 2016 after sitting an Internationally recognised Exam.  To remain an IBCLC, I have to re-certify every 5 years and prove that I have studied and am up to date. In order to fullfill the requirements, many hours are spent at study days, conferences in attendance (or online) and online study courses  to gain CERPS. I feel very passionate about infant feeding and work hard to ensure that a parent's feeding journey is the best that it can be, whatever way they choose or are able to feed their baby.

​

I have been qualified as a Holistic Therapist since 2005 and a Craniosacral Therapist since 2014. I am insured with Holistic Services and Hiscox for these therapies and I am a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapies. To check my registration please go to Find a therapist | Federation of Holistic Therapists Directory Service (fht.org.uk)  Registration Number: 98437 

​

To remain on the FHT register, I have to gain CPD each year CPD is required for Reflexology and online study/reading/case studies, for my other diciplines.

 

I am able to give both of these therapies in my clinic. Please see  services tab for further information.
