About Me

Passionate about providing doula support to families during pregnancy, birth and early parenthood, and I feel incredibly privileged to positively contribute to their experience. I have 4 adult children and had a doula at each of my births – so I know first hand how valuable doula support is! I understand that this journey is one of conflicting emotions - excitement, fear, hope, overwhelm, love…. with my support you will be listened to, cared for and guided through it all.

Originally from the UK, I’ve lived in 3 countries and understand the challenges of birth and parenting without much family support. This is why I host regular coffee mornings and what drives my involvement with the Positive Birth Movement, I love connecting women and building community - what's that phrase.... 'when women support each other, incredible things happen' - it's so true!

I love learning and continue my professional development by attending various courses, seminars and professional meetups – adding skills to enhance my service and making sure that I keep my information and practice up to date. 

I am intuitive, calm, practical and nurturing. My approach is to support my clients with an open mind, delivering impartial, evidence based information and support.

I bring a ‘bag of tricks’ to each birth but my favourite tools are my heart and my hands…

My Qualifications

As well as being an experienced birth and postnatal doula I am also a Hypnobirthing Australia™ Practitioner (see HERE for more information on classes), and infant massage educator.

I also hold certificates in Hypnotherapy, Aromatherapy, Emergencies in Childbirth, Acupressure, Possums Breastfeeding Support & Sleep Program, Optimal Maternal Positioning (OMP) and Spinning Babies techniques. I am also a Body Ready Method Pro and a Team Leader for the current cohort of this amazing program.
