48 hours of strength, courage, and unwavering determination.
It was the deepest honor to walk alongside Mum and Dad as they brought their beautiful boy into the world. From those first quiet contractions at home, through the long hours of active labor, to that powerful moment in the hospital pool when baby finally arrived - every single minute was a testament to Mum’s incredible strength and Dad’s steadfast support.
Birth doesn’t always go to plan. Sometimes the journey takes us places we didn’t expect. But what matters most is that you’re surrounded by people who believe in you, believe for you, who hold space for you, and who honor every twist and turn of your unique story.
Mum and Dad - watching you work together through those 48 hours, seeing your trust in each other and in the process, witnessing the moment you became three… it’s why I do this work. You were magnificent. 💛. Welcome to the world, sweet baby. Your parents are extraordinary.

Today I had the privilege of supporting an incredible solo mama as she prepared for her first international flight with her little one ✈️💕
From helping her pack strategically (yes, there’s an art to fitting everything a baby needs into luggage limits!) to walking her right through to airport security, it was such an honor to be part of this journey.
Watching her navigate those first-time-parent-traveling jitters while preparing to take her baby home to Italy reminded me why I love what I do. Sometimes we all need someone in our corner, especially during those big, scary, beautiful firsts.
To all the solo parents out there doing hard things: you’re absolutely amazing. And if you need a hand getting ready for your next adventure, I’m here for you.
Safe travels, mama. Italy is lucky to have you coming home 🇮🇹❤️

This!!! I could not agree more! Listen to your body and do the moves! Get • During labour, it is best to move instinctively 🤰✨

Follow your body and trust that you will know what positions support your baby to move down through your pelvis.

You don’t have to memorise techniques or hold yourself to a perfect plan — your instincts will lead the way.

If you feel the urge to stand, kneel, lean, rock, or drop low, that’s your body communicating with you.

Let those movements guide you. Trust yourself — your body, your instincts, your birth. You’ve got this 💛

✨ And just like that, my tiny newborn client is now smiling, recognizing faces, sitting up, and taking in everything around him with such curiosity.
It’s a real privilege to be part of those early weeks with a new family. Watching these transformations happen and being able to support parents through that time—each postnatal session genuinely brings me so much joy.
If you’d like some support in those first weeks with your baby, please message me. I’d love to see how I can help. ✨
