Child health nurse Karina Ayers has been the clinical lead in a global project with the HelpMe Feed Foundation to develop an app that gives health professionals a 24/7 tool to help mums breastfeeding.
The app has already been adopted by health professionals around the world and was launched in Vasse, Western Australia.
With a comprehensive library of thousands of videos and resources, heath professionals can provide mothers with information specific to them and their baby.
"With HelpMe Feed a parent is only seeing what is relevant to her and her baby," Ms Ayers said.
"With'D octor Google', internet resources can overwhelm and confuse new mothers, lowering their confidence to face challenges.
"I really wanted to help solve something that was such a unique problem.
"This app is designed for child health nurses, midwives, lactation consultants and someone who works closely with mums' breastfeeding."
Mother of nine Melody Hawkins said the app was what a lot of mothers needed.
"It is normally in the middle of the night when you need the most help and you cannot always call health professionals, at night you need something you can easily access," she said.
Mother of three Amy Wyle said when you are in hospital you get a lot of different opinions on how to breastfeed even if it was all from different midwives which could be confusing as a new mum.
"The fact you can completely personalise the app to the person who the health professional is interacting with is just incredible because you are not looking for random information, you are looking at information which is specific to your journey and your situation."
Vasse MLA Libby Mettam said this unique and important technology was being taken up in the Eastern States and it was hoped the government would support trials in WA.
"We know the take up of lactation is around 92 per cent in WA but after six months that falls dramatically to about 15 per cent."
