How many more reports will it take for the government to wake up and take urgent action?

How many more mamas and babies lives lost and serious harm caused?

For those of us working in and using maternity services, the findings are not surprising.

The system is letting down families and, in the work that I do, I see how it lets down Black mamas and their families.

🚫 dangerously poor care
🚫 concerns dismissed
🚫birthing options limited based on race
And so on …….

We need solutions that are as big as the problems.

Yes, increasing staffing levels would help but what’s the use of more staff if they’re being inducted into a culture of bullying, blame, low staff morale and systemic racism???

We need nothing short of a revolution in maternity care.

Until that happens, if you’re a Black or mixed heritage mama-to-be and would like a bit more joy and confidence along your journey to birth - please jump into my DMs now ❤️

📣📣📣Introducing my newest baby: my POSTPARTUM ESSENTIALS course 🎉🎉

✅ This is for anyone who loves & supports postpartum families, including nannies, doulas (newly trained & seasoned) and others who have a passion for nurturing families through this precious time.

❓Why did I create this course?

Short answer is I was approached by a lovely American nanny who said she’d heard me talking about postpartum care on a podcast and wanted me to share the wisdom & knowledge so that she could offer the BEST care to her nanny families.

Long answer is I LOVE loving on postpartum families and sharing my knowledge with others means that more families get to receive the deep nurturing that they require & deserve as they navigate the tricky postpartum path.

As a trainer & mentor, I also love when practitioners level up in their practice in a way that is authentic and non-sleazy! This is what you’ll get with this course - postpartum wisdom but you will also be encouraged to weave your whole self, cultural traditions, boundaries and more into your work with families.

💊All nutritional supplements are not made equally and I’ve been recommending to my clients since I discovered them years ago.

What I especially love about these Daily Essentials for Women is that your supplements come in daily pouches.

Listen, I’m a busy woman and haven’t got the time or headspace to be worrying about how many capsules to take and when.

Take the sachet out of the box, open, swallow and go about my day knowing that my hormones, brain function and immune support are all taken care of.
