I’m Polly and I’m here to support you throughout your breastfeeding journey by providing preparation during pregnancy and personalised breastfeeding support after birth. Breastfeeding can present many challenges, and receiving the right support can greatly impact the health and well-being of both you and your baby. With a calm, gentle, and nurturing approach, combined with my expertise and experience, I aim to make you feel understood, supported, and self-assured as you continue on your feeding journey. I work as a Midwifery Specialist in Lactation at a Sydney hospital and offer private in-home consultations across Northern Sydney, as well as Telehealth appointments

I’m Josi, a birth and postpartum doula, and a mum of four, including twins. My own journey through pregnancy, birth, and motherhood inspired me to support women and families during this life-changing time. I know firsthand how important it is to feel cared for, reassured, and truly nurtured.

As a doula, I provide a blend of evidence-based information, emotional encouragement, and practical support. Every woman’s experience is unique, so I tailor my care to meet your needs; whether you’re preparing for birth, planning a caesarean, or adjusting to life with a newborn. My role is to bring calm, confidence, and continuity, helping you feel supported at every stage.

Postpartum care is especially close to my heart. The early weeks can be both beautiful and overwhelming, and having a steady presence to lean on can make all the difference. I offer guidance, reassurance, and hands-on help so you can focus on rest, recovery, and bonding with your baby.

One of the ways I nurture families is through wholesome, healing meals, included in my postpartum support packages. Food plays a powerful role in recovery, and I create meals that promote warmth, energy, and healing, while also being delicious and comforting.

My goal is simple: to ensure mothers and families feel seen, supported, and cared for during pregnancy, birth, and beyond. With both professional training and lived experience, I bring knowledge, compassion, and heart to every family I serve.

You don’t have to do it alone – I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
