Happy birthday to our fabulous Charlotte! 🎂

Midwife Charlotte and Dr Kara first worked together 15 (!!) years ago at The Women's in Melbourne.

Working together in the busy city birth suite Charlotte and Kara hit it off as friends and colleagues, and decided that, one day, they would work together in a dedicated women's health clinic in Geelong.

We are all so glad that Charlotte made this connection and we are so lucky to have her as a core member of the Berth team from day one.

Happy birthday Charlotte, you are one of a kind 💗

Our November Berth Group is officially underway—and what a beautiful start it’s been.

We had our first session this week and it was everything we hoped for: thoughtful conversation, laughs, and the beginning of some really lovely connections. We’re so grateful to be part of this journey with such a warm, open group of expectant parents.

Our October and November groups are now fully booked, but we do still have a couple of spots left in our final group for the year, for those due in December.

✨ April Berth Group Postnatal catchups with Midwife Rosie ✨

There’s something so special about coming together in those early weeks — the tired eyes, the honest chats, the little wins.

Rosie brings such warmth and wisdom to our sessions, creating space for questions, connection, and a few deep sighs of relief.

Sometimes it’s just knowing you’re not alone that makes all the difference.

🌸 Throwback 🌸

Almost 6 months ago we had the privilege of supporting Annabelle and Reece as they welcomed their first baby, Gio.

Their journey into parenthood was nothing short of incredible — from those radiant pregnancy moments to the raw, powerful beauty of Gio’s birth. It was emotional, transformative, and such a privilege to witness.

We loved catching up with them at their six-week visit with Dr Kara Thompson and can’t believe Gio is almost 6 months old.
