Postpartum Recovery

Hi, I’m Vicky, a passionate infant massage instructor, occupational therapist and mum of three, based in Sydney.

With years of experience supporting families and my own journey through the joys and challenges of motherhood, I’m here to help parents feel confident and connected with their little ones.

Through my in-person and online baby massage classes, I guide parents in discovering the incredible power of touch to nurture bonding, soothe discomforts and support their baby’s growth and development.

Whether you’re a first-time parent or navigating life with multiple little ones, my courses will equip you with practical skills and encouragement to guide you on this special journey—all from the comfort of home or in a welcoming group setting.

Let’s connect, learn, and make parenting a little easier, one massage at a time!

Hi! We’re Carolyn and Olivia. As Child and Family Health Nurses and mums ourselves, we are passionate about supporting, educating, and encouraging you from the fourth trimester until your little one is five years old. With decades of experience working with unique families like yours, we provide evidence-based support for breastfeeding/feeding, sleep and settling, growth and development, baby and toddler behaviour and adjusting to parenting. Appointments are available via telehealth nationally or as home visits throughout Sydney.

Baby and You – supporting you to support your baby.

Maternal Instincts is an award winning pre and postnatal massage therapy service, that truly understands the specific treatments that expectant and new mothers need.

Our Postnatal treatments help to give relief to neck and shoulder tension that develops from feeding (breast or bottle) as well as back pain as a result of delivery or from the extra sitting to feed and the bending associated with newborns. We are also trained specifically in c-section scar massage to help aid in recovery.

Our treatments are fantastic at helping mums gain some much-needed rest and “me time”. However, babies are always welcome at these treatments and feeding/ skin to skin time can definitely be accommodated – especially if mum and bub don’t get a chance for much bonding at home.

At Maternal Instincts Massage we specialise in helping women regain their confidence and comfort through massage therapy and innovative treatments. Now, we’re excited to also offer you a non-invasive pelvic floor solution that can address the core issues of bladder leaks and sexual health: Emsella. Whether you’re dealing with postpartum incontinence or simply want to improve your pelvic health as you age, Emsella can help you regain control and feel empowered in your own body
