When your doula is a registered health professional,
you gain the transformative experience of beautiful birth within the safety net of modern medicine.
Emotional support so you feel nurtured and honoured as you become a mother.
Empowerment and confidence in your body’s ability to birth your baby.
Childbirth education to demystify birth and ease your fears.
Increased capacity to handle the twists and turns that birth may take.
Cooperation with your medical team.
As your doula, I’m here to help you have a positive birth experience. I provide emotional and hands-on support for you, holding space where you feel heard, respected and nurtured.
I help you and your partner to learn about labour and birth, communicate your wishes, navigate a busy hospital system and welcome your baby into the world as nature intended.
I can be with you for the entire length of your labour if you wish, unlike your midwives or OB who may come in and out of the birth room as they juggle other patients. That makes you feel much more supported.
If you are in Adelaide, I would love to chat.
From 2023 I will only be attending births at WCH (public, MGP, home birth), Calvery and private midwife home births.
NOTE: I am fully booked until February 2024
(one spot for August 2023 has become available)
I’m a health professional trained to postgraduate level. I’m registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency as a chiropractor. I believe in evidence-based practice and think that modern medicine has many benefits.
I also think that we’ve over-medicalised birth and turned it into something that happens to you rather than through you in the middle of a complex, pressured health system where your medical team is also caring for many other labouring women.
When you hire me, you get the best of both worlds: a trained health professional who believes in supporting and empowering you through the transformative experience of birth.
I’m here to create a supportive nest for you, a key member of your tribe as you journey through an empowered pregnancy, birth and motherhood.
I’m here to connect you with mothers down the centuries who have birthed with the support and encouragement of more experienced women.
I’m here to help you get physically, mentally and emotionally ready for birth and to build your confidence in your body’s ability to deliver your baby.
I’m a registered chiropractor, qualified childbirth educator and birth doula with training in spinning babies, active birth and pre and postnatal yoga.
