All with Mothers at the centre 🙌

The Expo yesterday left me feeling exhilarated by all the positive feedback. We chose Mother’s Day weekend to truly honour and celebrate the mothers in our community (although in hindsight, it may not have been the best date alongside Agfest 🤦🏻‍♀️ BUT we’re living and learning 🤣)

For our VERY FIRST expo, I am absolutely thrilled and filled with so much joy at the incredible connections formed between practitioners and the beautiful mothers who came through our doors. I will forever cherish the moment I looked over and saw every seat filled with mums sitting together, listening to the presentations 😃

One of the stallholders shared that a pregnant mama came expecting to stay for just an hour… and ended up being there for four! Between the free Hydramama sample from my stall, the beautiful chocolate chip cookies from another, and the warmth shared throughout the day, it truly was a magical experience — a space where mothers could find their village 🫶

Sending love to all mothers today. Thank you to everyone who came along yesterday and helped make it such a wholesome and heart-filling experience 🥹 I am forever grateful x

I couldn’t be more excited to be attending the Birth In Tasmania Expo next Saturday the 9th of May! 🥰🥳💃

We’ve had some really beautiful feedback from mothers that what’s often missing is the “village” as you navigate this whole new identity and role of motherhood. And the thing is… your village doesn’t have to be just family and friends — it can also be made up of incredible, supportive professionals who are here to walk alongside you 💞

That’s exactly what this expo is all about!

There’ll be a mix of services — some free or government rebated, and yes, some paid too. So many of the businesses will be offering little tastes and trial experiences on the day, which is such a lovely way to explore what feels right for you.

We purposely chose Mother’s Day weekend as a celebration of YOU! 🌸

I’ll be there with bells on and I’d absolutely love to see you there too! 💋

What a legend! I had the best morning meeting the amazing Sharon from

She’s truly a wealth of knowledge, and I really admire her passion for what she does. I loved hearing about her baby first aid courses through - definitely not your average class! With her nursing and paediatric background, she can answer all those burning questions.

I’m also so excited about what’s ahead, especially her plans to bring baby massage into our community 🤩

We had a great brainstorm about the topics she’ll be covering at the Expo, can’t wait to share more on that soon!

All in all, such a wonderful morning. Thank you so much for coming up to meet me, Sharon! And yes… Arlo may have also had a fabulous time demolishing ice creams (yes plural), banana bread, and brownies at the café too 😂🍦🫠

I couldn’t have picked a more beautiful autumn day to spend in the park with our Blossom Motherhood postpartum doula clients 🍂

Next time, I might set the picnic blanket a little further from the acorn trees… those things were like tiny grenades, ended up with a few in my shoes 😅

Such a beautiful group of mamas, with some getting ready to start solids. We shared resources, experiences, and tips on navigating this new stage, and it was so special to see everyone openly supporting one another. This is the magic of the Blossom Motherhood community mamas coming together, supporting each other 💛

I had the most magical morning enjoying a hot coffee, baby chats, and chocolate-covered dates stuffed with nut butter. Truly a magnificent way to start the day ✨

What a powerful morning with best-selling author Jodi Wilson 🙌

Fresh from her national book launch of A Brain That Breathes, our perinatal network was lucky enough to share an intimate morning tea where Jodi guided us through the beautiful blend of research, lived experience, and practical tools from her book ✨ all explored through a perinatal lens.

There was so much wisdom in the room. 
Save this post for later, especially for those moments when life feels like a lot. Here are a few gentle, practical tools Jodi shared to support you (and the families you work with):

💛Try “legs up the wall” — a simple, restorative pose
💛Soft fascination ☁️ sip a cup of tea and watch the trees, the birds, the light. 
💛Go for a walk without earphones 😉 let your brain breathe
💛Find some green space, even with a little one in tow 🌿 the benefits for you and your baby can be profound. 
💛Slow down with deep breaths and intentional sighs

Jodi shared that mothering today is the hardest it’s ever been 😫 You are doing a wonderful job mama!

If you swipe to the last slide, you’ll see a little gift: a short breathing exercise Jodi guided us through (yes, including the audible sigh I enthusiastically requested multiple times 😅🙊).

A beautiful reminder that even in a busy, noisy café, we can find moments to soften, pause, and melt into our chair 🫠

One concept that really stayed with me was “infobesity” 🤔 the overload of constant information we’re consuming daily. So here’s your gentle nudge…

Put your phone down. Make a cup of tea. Look out the window. Take a deep breath… and maybe even an audible sigh 😮‍💨🥰

Thank you, Jodi your work is so needed, and so deeply felt 🫶

Last night I attended the annual dinner, and it was such a beautiful, heart-filling evening 💛

I donated an in-home massage to the silent auction and was absolutely thrilled that it received the highest bid it has in the past few years — with all funds going towards new floor furnishings for the birth centre, which has just had its lease renewed. Such wonderful news for our community!

At the heart of the night was celebrating the private midwives and the outstanding care they offer. I’m in awe of Marine, Michelle and Jaimee, and it was a beautiful farewell to Josephine. Phenomenal that Michelle had just attended three births in 24 hours and still arrived looking like an absolute goddess in a gorgeous white frock 🤍

My favourite part is always hearing the birth stories. One especially moving moment was a mama sharing her gratitude for our paths crossing so I could support her with lymphatic drainage massage during mastitis early postpartum — a true reminder of why I love this work 🥹

Add in a fascinating chat with retired midwife Anna Holloway about making a rosemary tincture, and a stunning venue at Alida Restaurant, and it truly was a magical night. ✨

Thank you Launceston Birth Centre for such a special evening 💋

This is going to be BIG… deep breath, Ayla 😅

I’m trying very hard to contain my excitement, but if I run into another perinatal professional, I just know I’m going to chew their ear off about our next Perinatal & Infant Network Meeting… because this one is something truly special.

Next month, we are absolutely thrilled to welcome Tasmania’s very own bestselling author, Jodi Wilson to our Perinatal & Infant Network meeting in Launceston.

Jodi is a bestselling author, yoga teacher, and postpartum doula. Her work has been published in The Guardian and ABC, and she writes two weekly newsletters on Substack. She lives in Tasmania with her partner and their four children. A Brain That Breathes is her fourth book.

Together, we’ll be exploring her latest book A Brain That Breathes through a perinatal lens.

Jodi is also the co-author of:
📚 The Complete Australian Guide to Pregnancy and Birth
📚 The Complete Guide to Postpartum
(co-authored with Sophie Walker)

No surprises here… the meeting is almost fully booked, with only a handful of spots remaining! 🙌

Jodi is fresh off the back of her national book tour, with A Brain That Breathes selling out across the country and receiving the most incredible feedback. To have her here in Launceston for such an intimate, in-person gathering feels incredibly special and I’m so proud to be bringing this opportunity to our local perinatal community.

If you’re lucky enough to already be a member, get ready for an inspiring, grounding, and deeply meaningful morning 🤍

If you’re not yet a member, slide into my DMs and I’ll share all the details on how to join the and attend.

✨ Bonus: Jodi will also have copies of her books available for purchase on the day, so you can buy directly from the author and support her beautiful work.

This one is going to be magic, see you there 🙌

🌼 Golden 2026 💗

I’ve had the most dreamy summer holidays with my family. Sun-soaked days, full hearts, and my son’s favourite song (K-Pop Demon Hunters) on repeat 🎶

A client once described me “sunshine in human form” 🌞 it really stuck.

So for 2026, my plan is bright 💫
bring golden, nourishing care to families through every stage of motherhood.

The sunburn has healed, the holiday nails are gone, and I’m back behind the scenes, ready to make this year shine.

✨ Here’s what’s happening at Blossom Motherhood:
💛 Postpartum doula care — holding and supporting mamas in the golden month.
💗 C-section + abdominal scar release work — still going strong and close to my heart.
