Registered nurse/ midwife
International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)
Certified International Doula
Childbirth Educator and Hypnobirthing

I am the founder and lover of “Little Bird Flies Birth and Beyond”.
I have a background in understanding and nurturing the nervous system and working with previous birth trauma and am currently studying a certificate of spinal flow and exercise physiology.

I live and breathe birth, the nurturing of women and creating community for mothers.  I work in the space of healing and unravelling throughout pregnancy so that you can enter motherhood with unwaivering confidence, self-love and power.

As a midwife of 10 years and as a doula who has studied and experienced a range of holistic practices, I draw on a blend of ancient traditions and evidence-based information to bring individualised support to every woman and family I work with, no matter where they are at on their journey.

I see the importance of addressing all aspects of the birthing journey, ensuring mum is prepared physicially, emotionally and psychospiritually.
I am constantly immersing myself in the latest evidence from around the world and delving deep into the practices of ancient and indigenous cultures. I like to work with both eastern and western practices of medicine whilst deeply listening to the individual and their needs.

Every woman has the capacity to bring their baby earth-side with complete trust and knowing in their body; sometimes it just takes a little loving guidance.
