What I love most about my role is to support new families in the rollercoaster of (preparing for) postpartum. To give them knowledge, skills, hope and support, to achieve their goals and even more important to feel heard, seen and supported in this intense time.

To be given an opportunity to work with families surrounded by the team at MAMA, alongside incredibly caring, professional, and respectful healthcare providers is a dream job that I am so very grateful for. 

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.

My biggest passion (especially after birthing my daughter) is in women-centred care. There is so much in the traditional hospital and birthing system that is missing, misunderstood or stacked against the mother and I feel so lucky to be able to contribute to the evidence-based, women-centred practice at MAMA.

I have been a midwife for over 20 years and love it. The birth of my first son inspired me to become the midwife I am. To this day I remember my midwife and the impact she has had on my life- I want to be that support for other families. 

I am passionate about creating a space where mothers and birthing people feel truly held, informed, and confident to make choices that are right for them.

I love witnessing families journey from our first appointment together, through their births and postpartum and seeing the incredible transformation that occurs. Not just for the woman/birthing person and their baby, but for those important to them.

MAMA allows midwifery to be practiced in a way that midwifery should be practiced. I am passionate about providing woman-centred, individualised care and that is exactly what MAMA is all about.

I love holding space and witnessing the deep transformative shifts that often unfold throughout a pregnancy, during birth, and during the tender postpartum time.

After having 3 very different birth experiences myself, I can appreciate the individual journeys other women embark and support them through their own.

One of my favourite things about midwifery is witnessing pregnant people connect with their bodies on a whole new level, step into their power, and realise their innate strength.
