I have different service packages to meet your desired needs and wants and each of these are customisable to you and your family’s needs: additional services such as massage, and others can be included at each visit for an arranged price.

The journey to Motherhood is a life-altering event, and the transition cannot be undermined.
By saying this, I’m not just talking about the method of delivery of your baby, or your birth experience, although that is a big part of it…what I also want you to remember is that when a Baby is Born, so are born as a Mother and father to each new little person. You both experience a birth into your new roles and a shift of identity, no matter how many children you have or are planning on having.

I endeavour to bring peace and calm to your pregnancy, labour, birth and postpartum period whilst holding space and the utmost respect for you, your partner and family during this journey.

Additionally as your Doula, I will help give your partner the confidence to support you because he/she will feel equally supported and guided.

I would love to be able to support, guide, love, encourage, educate, empower, and re-assure you and your family so that this journey, and the memory of how this life transition will be remembered throughout your life, is as positive, beautiful and sacred as it is meant to be.

Please contact me if you require any clarity or need more information.

Women who book with me as their birth Doula for a birth centre, Hospital or home Birth Service have the first 2 postnatal visits included in the birth package. If you hire me for postpartum care and live more than 20km from Wellington Point there will be an additional charge of $15 a visit for travel expenses.

I’d love to hear from you and help you on this beautiful journey.
