Education for Parents

Knowledge is power and it is so rewarding seeing families come through this education program with a greater insight and ability to advocate for themselves.

Many of us come with deep-seated ideas about healthcare, the power of women, what family means, where we hold community, and how we love. My passion is to dovetail all those elements with evidence-based midwifery practice, and sometimes be a little goofy in the process.

I believe childbirth education is such an essential part of birthing people having an empowered and positive birth experience, so I feel excited and honoured to be a part of that knowledge sharing at MAMA.

I am particularly passionate about postnatal care and breastfeeding support, and love supporting families through the magic and challenges of the first 6 weeks postpartum.

I had a sense, the way children do about things, that birth - and the bonds formed at birth - hold all the most important secrets about our world. I also sensed I would never be at my happiest unless worked with women and babies. I now know both of these to be true. 

I love educating and talking to families about how to care for their families. I'm passionate about making the class realistic and actionable steps you can apply in your every day life.

Information on parenting is constantly evolving, and delivery of content will change depending on the participants who attend the class, and the current research.

I’m passionate about creating class content & organising workshops that inspire people to lead with curiosity and learn something new that hopefully brings them a sense of ease or excitement.

When women and families feel empowered, they’re more likely to report positive birth experiences and that’s what I want for every person I support.

I especially love facilitating some of the free feeding drop-in sessions that run twice weekly, they are such a great opportunity for women to seek some general advice and support from an IBCLC and meet other mothers.
