Pink Flamingo Postpartum Care & Wellbeing
About Pink Flamingo Postpartum Care & Wellbeing
Hi there! I’m Hats – a Sydney-based postpartum doula, Mothers’ Blessing facilitator, and the mother of two little boys.
I support pregnant and new mothers with wholesome, delicious food, a keen listening ear, heart-felt rituals, grounding practices and lots of reassurance – you’ve got this mama!
Postpartum can be such a vulnerable time, but it can also be wonderfully transformative when you have the right support to help you process and understand the huge changes happening in your brain, body and identity.
The ways I can support you:
- Postpartum Doula care (in-home)
- Mothers’ Blessings
- Mothers’ Circles (monthly in Bronte, Sydney)
- Pregnancy Mentoring & Postpartum Planning
I came to this work through my own transition into motherhood and a deep curiosity about how women have traditionally been cared for after birth. So much of that wisdom has been lost in modern life, and I am passionate about helping bring it back in a way that feels life-giving and realistic for today.
My approach is both practical and holistic. I draw on traditional knowledge, current research, and a deep respect for each woman’s individual experience, supporting you to find what feels right for you.
My love of simple rituals, beautiful spaces and deep nourishment is woven into the way I work with you. As women, there is something so powerful and calming about care that engages all our senses.
This is a time that asks a lot of you, and calls for deep rest, support and care. It would be an honour to support you as you find your footing in this new chapter.
“Having Hats as my postpartum doula in those early months felt truly invaluable. My body needed deeper nourishment, and she not only fed me but also showed me how to nourish myself. Beyond the meals, it was the love and thoughtfulness she brought into everything. She has this calm confidence and a beautiful ability to truly listen. It felt like having a wise, caring friend come to support me. She held my daughter while I rested, shared practical tips on newborn care, and sat with me as I talked through the ups and downs of being a new mum. Her presence, care, and practical wisdom made such a difference as I found my feet in motherhood” – Destiny – first-time mum
