WELCOME!

I am thrilled to have you here.

Having a baby is one of the most special, thrilling and scary things we can do in life. From the moment we see our positive pregnancy tests, we become a mother and we are filled with emotions about this next stage of life we are about to embark on. A tide is turning and we are realising how important it is to make sure the mother is nurtured and cared for just as much as the baby.

The options on birthing can feel overwhelming, and most of us just want to have a positive birth that leaves us feeling empowered, confident and safe. We know birth doesn’t always go the way we think it will, but we know with the right support we can look back on the experience fondly and not traumatised. This is where I come in! A Doula is there to provide continuity of care to you, the birthing woman, and your support person. We are here to be your sounding board, listen to your concerns and support you through one of the biggest transitions of your life. Having a Doula has been proven to statistically leave women feeling more content in their birth, because we are there to make sure you are advocated for and that YOUR birth is YOUR way. I have made sure to do a comprehensive Doula training course to be well equipped to support you through all stages of birth and postpartum.

Doula with a modern twist

My philosophy is that birth has become over-medicalised and it’s time to take back our power. Birth should happen through you and not to you and with a pressured health care system, more and more women are turning to doulas to support their journey through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I am here to educate you about your options and to access information so you can make an informed decision that feels the best for you and your family.

Can’t wait to be on this birth journey with you
