Happy Mother’s Day to all of you who are celebrating themselves or who are being celebrated today. 
This Mum gig can be quite hard at times, but every day we show up, and every day it is so worth it. The love my children show me fills my heart, and I am so grateful to be so blessed.
To all of my incredible clients past and current (some of you multiple times,)  thank you for trusting me to support you and your family on your journey. It has been an absolute pleasure to stand by your side and hold space for you all. 
What a privilege it is to be with women in  this space. 

Happy Mother’s Day everybody 💞

Informed Consent and Informed Refusal in the birth space (and beyond).
If people are informed then they get to make their own choices that are right for them. Period.

A twin pregnancy is often seen as one of life’s most remarkable and emotionally powerful experiences. It symbolizes abundance, where love, anticipation, and hope are multiplied within a single journey. Instead of preparing for one new life, parents prepare for two, which naturally deepens emotional awareness and appreciation for the miracle of creation.

This experience often brings a stronger sense of emotional bonding within the family, as both partners share heightened responsibility and excitement. Every milestone feels more meaningful, and every moment becomes a reminder of how extraordinary life can be.

Beyond biology, a twin pregnancy also represents emotional richness—two hearts growing together, two futures unfolding simultaneously, and one journey filled with double joy and meaning. It is a reminder that life’s blessings sometimes come in pairs, making the experience even more profound and memorable.

I completed my final session with a very special person very recently who I have supported over the past 10 years!
Thats 10 years of support with 5 births, multiple prenatal sessions putting birth plans together, multiple postnatal support sessions, debriefing birth experiences, prenatal reiki and postnatal reiki.
It’s been a pleasure to support her with each of these 5 journeys.
Each journey unfolding it is own unique way, with the the latest birth being one very long wild ride, and I was actually asked to cut the cord (after delayed cord clamping of course 😉).
One strong woman I have stood by and held space with through all the ups and downs, and it has been an honour to walk by her side.
We finished our sessions together with a Womblight session which included oracle cards, 2 meditations, reiki/womb healing, sound bath, postnatal debriefing and discussing life.
Baby enjoyed being part of the reiki and sound healing too!

Hello!!
Wow it’s been a minute since I’ve been on here. It’s good to have a break from posting on social media… (it just gives me the ick sometimes 🤷🏻‍♀️).
I prefer to use my energy for other things, and behind the scenes I’ve been continuously supporting families with prenatal and postpartum support , birth, breastfeeding, reiki and energy healings, emotional support and providing support to women in other areas of their own journey.
I realised it’s been 3 months now since posting, so I decided I should probably show my face (wrinkles and all 😆), and let everyone know I am still providing holistic care to all my clients, and it would be a good time to reintroduce myself.
I am a wife and Mother, (including being a twin mum), Birth and Postnatal Doula, Reiki & Spiritual Healing Practitioner, and Women’s Wellbeing Coach.
I am also a qualified Child Care Educator and have supported children as a Sibling Doula.
I offer many services and support women in any phase of life, and tailor care to suit each persons needs. People do not have to be pregnant or postpartum.
I enjoy deep conversations and connecting with people, and laughing until I hurt.
I am calm and focused when needed, but do enjoy being a goofball at times.
I welcome clients to contact me to see how I can best support them and see where the journey may take us.

If you’re pregnant with a girl…
you’re holding generations at once.

Baby girls are born
with all the eggs they’ll ever have.
Which means inside you
is not just your daughter
you’re carrying her future children too.

The babies she may one day hold.
The laughter, the love, the life
that hasn’t even begun yet…
all quietly resting inside you.

Three generations.
One body.
One sacred moment in time.

A mother.
A daughter.
And the possibility
of a grandchild.

Life is already weaving
a future you can’t see,
touch, or imagine yet
but it’s there.

Soft.
Silent.
Sacred.

I’ll never forget that first night after birth.

The room was quiet.
The lights were dim.
My body was exhausted in a way I didn’t know was possible.

And there you were.
So small.
So perfect.
Sleeping on my chest like you’d always belonged there.

I watched every breath you took.
Counted every tiny rise and fall of your chest.
Listened to every little sound, afraid to miss a single one.

My heart felt like it had grown overnight.
Like it had cracked open and filled with a love I didn’t know existed.

I was sore.
I was emotional.
I was running on no sleep.

But none of that mattered.
Because in that moment, nothing else in the world existed but you.

No distractions.
No noise.
Just a mother and her baby, learning each other for the very first time.

And I remember thinking…
How did I live before you?

Because from that first night on,
everything changed.

🌟Happy 2026 to you all 🌟
I hope everyone started their year off safely and happy.  
This year i’m looking to form more real connections with people, the deep conversations and connections is what i’m always drawn to.
I couldn’t decide on one word to focus on for the year, but 4 words! 
•Balance (work-home), 
•Value (continue to value myself), 
•Worth (remembering that I am worthy even if others can see it or not), 
•Joy (find joy in an experience each day).
I am looking forward to supporting and nurturing clients through their various journeys, and welcoming new life earth side,  the current clients and clients yet to cross my path. 
What are you wanting to get out of this year?

2025 - Thank you to all of you who put your faith in me and allowed me to be part of your journeys. 
Another year of supporting women and their families.  A year of highs and lows, and as I stood by the side of my clients I felt it all. 
Another year of pregnancy support, supporting labours and births, much postpartum care, education and guidance, and of course my energy healing sessions and sound baths.
I took time out to support my own family as well as myself when I needed too.
Reflecting on where the year took me, I am grateful for the people I met and connected with, as well as the amount of sunrises and sunsets I was able to witness doing this work.
Let’s see what next year has in store for everyone. 

Take care and see you in 2026 🙌

This week I had the pleasure to support a client of mine as she embraced 2 days of prelabour before a full day and evening of established labour.
She showed such strength through the whole process.  She stayed in control and made choices that were right for her.  With no added pressure from anyone, she had the strength to keep going.  She never gave up and did everything on her terms.
She called it a marathon, and it was.  
She was determined. She was strong, and I am in awe.

When i’m doing Prenatal sessions with clients I discuss various birthing positions and using tools such as tens, birth ball, toilet, comb, the list goes on…. A birth preferences document is created with each individual clients desires for their birth experience. 
So it’s very disheartening during labour when a care provider strolls in and says ‘it doesn’t matter what position you are in, it won’t make any difference to your labour’!  
Pretty upsetting that the client can be encouraged to be in a bad position and discouraged to try anything that might be more comfortable for them.  (Also makes me look like an idiot for suggesting things that might actually be beneficial for them 🙄).  
First time parents, as well as any birthing parent, need more encouragement from care providers to support their labour not hinder it. 
I will always continue to encourage position changes, encourage them to listen to their body and trust their intuition! 
I believe in them and their ability to birth, I trust the process 💞
