About Me
This is me, mum of three gorgeous children, birth and postpartum doula, mindfulness teacher, NDC practitioner from Possums & Co, Mindful Hypnobirthing Facilitator, Baby Yoga and Baby Massage teacher along with a mamma-to-be gatherer based on the Central Coast, NSW..
I always thought becoming a mamma would complete me, but oh my goodness did it do more than that! It opened me up to become a woman I never imagined I would be. My children have enabled me to realise my true-life purpose and have led me to where I am today - nurturing and supporting mammas through their transition from woman to mother.
I have created a service that combines my passions of nurturing and nourishing mammas with food, a supportive listening ear while sharing practical mindfulness skills to support this huge transition and transformation we go through when we become a mother.
I honestly believe that when a baby is born, so is a mother, and we need to honour this incredible journey. In those first six weeks postpartum, we can set ourselves up to return to full health and vitality while experiencing calmness, happiness and so much joy.
I believe this is achieved when we nurture the mamma, surround her with a supportive village and create a calming environment. And that is my life purpose - to do exactly that one mamma at a time.
I hope I get to support you through your journey into motherhood - I know the support we need to make this transition as smooth, open and honest as possible. And the outcome when we nurture you, the mamma, is very powerful and life changing in so many ways.

A Doula is a trained in providing continuous physical, emotional and informational support to their client before, during and shortly after childbirth to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible.
Their primary role is to support birthing women and their birth partners by offering information, advocating for your intentions and needs, and providing physical and emotional support.
In the postpartum setting the overarching purpose of a postpartum professional is to help women step into the role of ‘new mother’ with confidence and satisfaction. As non-medical professionals, we provide emotional and physical support during this life-changing transition.
