Mother Nurture

Clinical aromatherapy and massage to support women through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond.

Provider of natural aromatherapy products, aromatherapy education and baby massage training to help mothers care for themselves and their families. My qualifications, experience and passion in nursing, midwifery, clinical aromatherapy and massage provided the foundations for Mother Nurture. Whilst studying aromatherapy, it became evident through discussions with women that many were reluctant to use aromatherapy during their pregnancy. Women are quite vulnerable during this time and with so much confusing and conflicting advice it was often simpler to do without. This spurred me on to develop a service where women could be assured they were receiving expert advice and care. Using mother nature to nurture mothers was essentially the vision. Mother Nurture has been supporting women through the roller coaster of life since 2010. I also love to provide parents with simple tools, such as natural aromatherapy products, aromatherapy education and baby massage techniques, to help care for themselves and their families.

Did you know, when we massage babies, we always start on the legs?

This is because they are very familiar with touch around this area - with all the nappy changing! Touching their legs feels comfortable and safe. Massage on some other areas of the body such as the arms and chest can feel more intrusive.

Massaging babies is very different compared to adults. This is why it’s important to learn the correct timing, sequence and techniques for baby massage.

There is ONE SPOT LEFT for my next Baby Massage course starting next Wednesday 25th February Midwifery Practice
Course runs for 3 x 60min sessions over subsequent Wednesdays. The first class can also be attended as an Introductory session.

And yes- big brothers & sisters are welcome! 😀

🌿 A NEW CHAPTER FOR MOTHER NURTURE 🌿

After more than 10 wonderful years at Growing Bones, I’ve made the very difficult decision to move my whole practice to MAMA in Kensington.

Growing Bones has been such a special part of my journey. I’m so incredibly grateful to Melissa for welcoming me into her little clinic in Seddon all those years ago, and for the encouragement, support and laughter along the way.

My final day at Growing Bones will be Tuesday 10th March.

Then from April, I’ll be working full time from MAMA.
MAMA is a peaceful, welcoming space and only a 10-minute drive from Yarraville.

To celebrate this new chapter, I’ll be offering the special gift of 10%OFF all April bookings.

If you’d like to book in before March 10 at Growing Bones, you can do so here:
https://www.growingbones.com.au/online-booking/

or secure your April appointment at MAMA here: https://myappointments.app/portal/public/get-embeded-code?business_id=MzE3NQ==

Thank you for your ongoing support. I’m so grateful to continue this work in a beautiful new space. 💚

Did you know I can create bespoke aromatherapy blends specific to your needs and preferences?

I did this recently for a client who was after an essential oil blend for her new psychology practice. She has created the most beautiful, welcoming space at Kensington Psychology Clinic and felt a tailored scent would complete the project.

Aromatherapy consultations consist of discussion and exploration of:

🌿your specific needs, the “brief”
🌿any physical and psychological health concerns
🌿possible cautions or interactions with medicines etc
🌿most appropriate or preferred methods of application
🌿personal likes and dislikes

Then together we explore all the options and create a personalised blend or remedy that is beneficial, safe and pleasant.

I love this process, it’s fun for me as well as the client😀

Aromatherapy consultations can be booked via the website, or DM me for more info.

Next Baby Massage course .au starts on Wednesday 25th February. Course runs over 3 x 60min sessions (subsequent Wednesdays).

Did you know that all the benefits of baby massage are evidence-based? And the benefits aren’t just for baby but parents too.

These benefits include:
• Reduced crying time
• Improved sleep
• Improved mood
• Relief from wind, colic, reflux and constipation
• Boosts immune system
• Relief of sinus and chest congestion
• Enhanced bonding & confidence in parents

I absolutely love teaching baby massage to new (or expectant) parents! Once the correct techniques and sequences are learnt, it’s a tool parents can use throughout their child’s life - not just for babies but right up to teenage years. A skill for life!

Class size is limited - there are currently 3 spots left!
DM me if you have any questions, or see booking link below:

I’ve been pretty quiet here on social media since Christmas, enjoying a bit of a break from admin work. It’s been a busy start to the year with:

💆🏼‍♀️lots of tired, stressed or pregnant bodies needing massage
🌿aromatherapy consultations to create a bespoke blend for a new clinic (see my next post)
🤱many babies born in January
👼baby massage classes
and some big changes to my practice (more on that later)

In the meantime, for those followers who are new here or may have forgotten who I am due to my lack of presence, here’s a brief rundown on me!

I’ve been a
💙nurse for 40 years
💛midwife for 34 years
💚aromatherapist for 25 years
🩷wife for 24 years
🧡mum for 22 years
💜small businesswoman for 16 years

In my clinic I offer:
🍃Aromatherapy consults
🍃Massage for everyone, regardless of gender, age or life stage
🍃Pregnancy & postnatal massage
🍃Gentle Scar Therapy
🍃Baby massage classes

I love what I do and am rewarded every time I hear an essential oil blend improved sleep; a pregnancy massage provided much needed pain relief, a new mum gets the nurturing care she deserves, or parents realise the benefits of their new-found baby massage skills.

When I’m not working, I enjoy yoga, swimming, music, dancing, aromatic baths, cooking and quality time with family & friends! 😀

Last day in clinic today! I am heading off for a short break for Christmas 🎄

My first day back will be Tuesday 30th December at Growing Bones, Yarraville (currently fully booked).

I'd just like to say a heartfelt thank you for all your support this year. Every booking, product purchase, kind feedback and referral has helped me keep doing what I love, and I’m so grateful to all my wonderful clients.

I hope the festive season brings you rest, joy, and moments of connection with your favourite people 💚

I'm a bit behind in sorting my calendar for 2026, but plan to run a course .au in January, dates TBC.
Please DM me ASAP if you're keen to join us😊
