Danielle Brooker is a Mama, Joy Activation Coach, writer, avid self-help reader, lover of travel, adventure and exceptional coffee. Through her private coaching programs, digital courses, Mama Joy Summit, writing and podcast, Danielle teaches ambitious, busy and always-on Mamas ‘in the thick of it’ to move from the mess to the magic of this season of life.

Her signature program BEYOND focuses on the ‘forgotten season’ of motherhood, teaching Mamas to put core foundations in place to support their thriving well beyond the traditional ‘postpartum’ period. Danielle works intuitively, blending a foundation in human behaviour, neuroplasticity-based coaching and strategy, with somatic principles, emotional context work and soul practices. She shares, “I moved across the world to a new city, 6 months pregnant, in the middle of a global pandemic. All to take action towards my dreams. It was tough. And it was rewarding. I birthed my baby at home, with my partner holding me, literally.

Entering motherhood was everything and nothing like I imagined. It’s pushed me beyond any emotional capacity I’ve ever been asked to experience. I’ve been on my knees sobbing on the bathroom floor not believing I could get up again. And I’ve been bursting with so much joy I thought my cheeks would explode.

Motherhood is one of the most courageous acts. I’m here to take your hand and show you back to your place of safety and strength, so you can fully expand into this season of life. So you can live your most joyful life and feel your most vibrant self.”

She’s the author of Freedom from Busy and has written for and been featured in publications such as Forbes.com and Breathe and is on a mission for Mamas to reclaim this powerful season of life and live in their fullness. Danielle currently lives in Sydney with her daughter and partner, dreaming up the next adventure for their family.

Hi, I’m Georgie, a mum, midwife, lactation consultant (IBCLC), child and family health nurse, and the heart behind The Latch Lady. I know firsthand how joyful, overwhelming, beautiful and messy early parenthood can be, because I’ve lived it too. My daughter Poppy was born in 2024, and even with all my professional experience, breastfeeding didn’t come easy. That journey deepened my compassion, and reaffirmed my belief that every parent deserves individualised, evidence-based, and deeply kind support.

At The Latch Lady, I offer one-on-one breastfeeding consultations in your home or in clinic, as well as prenatal breastfeeding education sessions for expectant parents. I also support families navigating newborn care, feeding challenges, sleep, and the emotional highs and lows of early parenthood.

My approach is inclusive, judgment-free and grounded in real-life experience. Whether you’re preparing to breastfeed, feeling unsure in those early weeks, or needing support with things like mastitis, pumping, mixed feeding or weaning, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I work with families in Sydney and offer personalised care that’s led by you, your values, your goals, your baby. You won’t get a one-size-fits-all answer from me, and I’ll never tell you there’s only one “right” way. What you will get is warmth, clinical expertise, and someone cheering you on.

You can learn more or book a visit via my website or Instagram @thelatchlady_. I’m so honoured to be part of the Not Another Onesie village, and I can’t wait to support you in yours.

The Healthy Peach Physio is a Brisbane-based pelvic health physiotherapy clinic, home to a team of eight specialised physiotherapists. Founded by Marnie Poiner—Physiotherapist and Psychosexual Therapist—the clinic takes a holistic, individualised approach focussing on education, empowerment, and personalised care.

We support women through every life stage—from menarche, through pregnancy and postpartum, and well beyond; Treating a wide range of pelvic health concerns including bladder/bowel dysfunction, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain, and sexual function concerns.

During pregnancy, we work closely with you to help prepare your body for birth. If you’re planning a vaginal birth, assessing pelvic floor function, muscle range of motion, and the effectiveness of your pushing technique—tailored to suit whichever birth position you prefer. Sessions will educate you on each stage of labour, equipping you with practical strategies to navigate the physical and emotional ups and downs. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions about your birthing journey.

If you’re planning a belly-birth or still deciding, we’ll also walk you through what to expect, how to prepare, and what recovery may look like post-abdominal surgery. No matter how your baby enters the world, we’ll help you understand what’s normal during recovery and when to seek support—so you can feel informed, safe, and cared for.

We also help manage the many physical changes that can arise during pregnancy, including bladder or bowel issues, constipation, vaginal heaviness, varicosities, and pelvic girdle or lower back pain.

Postpartum, we encourage you to visit us for both abdominal and pelvic floor assessments. Abdominal checks can take place as soon as you’re comfortable leaving the house, while pelvic floor assessments are typically recommended around six weeks postpartum. However, if you’re experiencing concerns earlier, it’s important to seek support sooner.

We also offer treatment for lactating breast conditions, including the management of blocked ducts, engorgement, and mastitis. These conditions can be painful and distressing and may impact your feeding journey. Our physiotherapists provide hands-on care and guidance to relieve symptoms, support healing, and help you continue breastfeeding comfortably and confidently.

Life Ready Studio is an intimate, personal and supportive reformer pilates studio based in Caulfield North, Melbourne.

With only 7 reformers, the client experience feels like a personal session with constant instructor awareness, allowing for necessary adjustments throughout the class. Life Ready Studio was established by Teri, who wanted to create a space where clients could move in a group class but still be seen and adjusted where needed.

Teri thrives on helping and encouraging people to move confidently. She believes that creating a space that challenges clients whilst they move through all stages of life ( Pilates beginner, post injury, antenatal and postnatal as well as advanced Pilates enthusiasts) while feeling fully supported mentally and physically is the key to ultimate wellbeing.

Teri’s main passion is helping mothers and mothers-to-be feel strong and confident in their bodies before and after pregnancy. Having two boys (and a third baby on the way), Teri understands the importance of movement pre- and post-natally to aid the body during pregnancy, for birth, and, most importantly, for recovery. The studio provides support for mums-to-be throughout every trimester, adjusting movement to accommodate the changes in the body. The studio also provides mums and bubs classes so clients can move while having their baby next to them in the pram, on the mat or in the carrier. Each class helps clients regain their strength and confidence, while still allowing them to spend time with their baby and other like-minded mums.

Together, they offer families an unparalleled level of support.

Their approach has been shown to have meaningful outcomes for families, including:

• Reduced postnatal depression scores

3. Grounding their support through evidence
4. Growing joy in everyday family life

Whether in-person at their Brisbane clinic or via Telehealth across Australia, The Possums Clinic is here to empower you as the experts of your little one.

Emergcare: Empowering Families with Life-Saving Knowledge

At Emergcare, we understand that the birth of a baby marks the beginning of a parent’s journey. Our approach to first aid education goes beyond just teaching life-saving skills — it’s about supporting families during their transition to parenthood and helping them build their village of support. Our mission is to provide every family with essential first aid education, ensuring they have the knowledge and confidence to act in emergencies. We envision a community where all parents have the skills to respond to emergencies and the resources to support their mental health and wellbeing.

Our Mission

As health professionals and paramedics, we believe CPR and first aid are lifesaving skills that should be accessible to all. We collaborate to educate families and communities on preventing, identifying, and responding effectively to a wide range of illnesses, injuries, and emergencies. Our goal is to create safer communities by empowering individuals with the confidence to respond in critical moments, especially while waiting for medical help. Immediate care in those first minutes can save lives.

Our Services

We offer a range of evidence-based, high-quality first aid courses, including our Perinatal First Aid Course, designed specifically for new and expecting parents. Alongside essential training in childhood injury prevention, paediatric first aid, and child and newborn CPR, this course also offers tools to support your emotional wellbeing.

Through education and evidence-based resources, you’ll gain practical tools to build support networks and care for your mental and emotional health during pregnancy and early parenthood. This holistic approach ensures that parents are equipped to care for their child while also nurturing their own wellbeing.

Our training is based on the latest guidelines from the Australian Resuscitation Council and Australian Children’s Hospital, ensuring practical and up-to-date education.

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.

Hi, I’m Cass — a mum of three and the founder of Nourishy. Like many mums, I know firsthand the challenges of expressing breast milk, navigating returning to work, travelling with a frozen stash, or simply wanting to make sure every drop of our “liquid gold” is used. That’s why I created Nourishy: to give families a safe, science-backed way to preserve their breast milk for the long term.

Nourishy is Australia’s first freeze-drying service for personal breast milk. We gently freeze-dry your milk at our medical-grade facility, turning it into a shelf-stable powder that lasts up to 3 years — no fridge or freezer needed. It’s convenient, travel-friendly, and perfect for shared feeding, daycare, and those “just in case” moments.

We’ve completed over 3,000 shipments across Australia, all arriving safely at our Brisbane facility— a testament to the robust process and care we take with every order. Each mum’s milk is handled individually and with the highest level of safety and attention — because we know how precious it is.

Whether you’re heading back to work, your freezer’s overflowing, or you’re building an emergency stash, we’re here to help you keep giving your baby your breast milk.

We’ve also partnered with the incredible team at Mother’s Milk Bank Charity to help freeze dry donor milk across Australia.

We are the offical partner to Milkify in the US. At Nourishy, it’s not just about preserving breast milk — it’s about supporting you on your feeding journey and creating peace of mind, one pouch at a time.

Supporting tired parents to make kind, attachment-focused changes to their baby’s sleep, WITHOUT sleep training.

Hi, I’m Katie, a Registered Midwife with over 25 years of clinical experience and a background in home birth. I’m also a certified OCN Level 6 holistic infant sleep coach and mum to four teenagers.

After breastfeeding, co-sleeping, baby-wearing and surviving endless night wakes with my own children, I discovered something important: families don’t have to choose between ignoring their instincts or staying up all night forever. There is a gentle middle ground, and that’s exactly what I offer through Katie’s Babies.

I’m based in Melbourne, Australia, and while I offer in-home support locally, most of my work is conducted online. That means I can support families anywhere in the world. My approach blends evidence, intuition and deep respect, helping you create a rhythm that works for your baby and your life, without ever resorting to cry-it-out or forceful routines.

How I can help

Whether you’re contact-napping with a 4-month-old or wrestling with a strong-willed toddler at bedtime, I’m here to guide you towards your goals while preserving connection every step of the way.

• Helping you understand what’s biologically normal in infant and toddler sleep

• Reassuring you that feeding to sleep, contact naps, co-sleeping and floor beds are not ‘bad habits’, they’re instinctive and valid, but it’s ok to make changes if you want to.

• Offering realistic, respectful strategies that protect emotional safety and strengthen bonds

Families often tell me they appreciate my slow, steady, step-by-step approach, designed to avoid tears wherever possible. I build confidence gently, with connection and encouragement, never through pressure or detachment.

Many of my values are grounded in Montessori principles and Aware Parenting theories.

My goal is always to help you find a path that feels sustainable, respectful and aligned with your parenting values, while making life a little easier along the way.  Sleep doesn’t have to be a battle, and you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’m Jess, a family photographer based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

I want to capture the real, raw moments of every season of life. To me, it’s all about making the mundane look magical and beautiful. I also want you to have fun while capturing some cherished memories.

As a mother of 2 little ones myself, I understand how important it is to document those early moments and capture those tender days of early motherhood in a way that is authentic to you and your family.

Welcome to Maternal and Infant Wellbeing Melbourne. This boutique Women’s health and Perinatal experience founded by Dr. Amber Hart, aims to nurture women and babies through providing consistent, evidence-based, exceptional quality care. At MIWM we provide general and specialist women’s and children’s medical consultations, classes, allied therapies and complementary services to ensure that women and families receive exceptional care in a safe and nurturing environment.

“We are leading the way in healthcare innovation with our first of it’s kind Day Stay Experience”.

This 7 hour stay is designed to give mother’s the confidence to feed and settle their babies in a way that meets their own unique parenting goals. We support mental health and postpartum wellbeing by providing a mother’s helper for the day and every mum has a luxurious day spa treatment included in their package.  Babies are treated to a divine sensory class and mum’s get to choose from a sleep and settling consult, and osteo consult or a baby carrying consult and they will have all feeds supervised by Breastfeeding Medicine and Infant sleep expert, Dr. Amber Hart.

We also offer Australia’s only GTT experience. 

During pregnancy, it is recommended that women undergo screening for Gestational Diabetes.  Historically, this test has been dreaded by mum, but we’ve now made it something to look forward to.

Mums arrive fasted and have their blood tests taken by one of our experienced staff members.  They are then treated to an hour of rest in our divine relaxation room and an hour day spa treatment.  This service is seeing an increased uptake in screening and also promoting antenatal and postnatal wellbeing by linking women in with exceptional quality pregnancy and post-natal services.  As such, we are focusing on prevention rather than cure.”

I’m Joanna, a mother of two and the founder of Sage Nest—a boutique wellness practice based in Newcastle, NSW. My work focuses on supporting women through the transformative stages of pregnancy, birth preparation, and postpartum recovery with care that is both holistic and deeply nurturing.

I’ve been in clinical practice since 2004 and bring together a unique blend of therapies to support the health and wellbeing of mothers and their families. My approach is integrative and evidence-informed, combining Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, Naturopathy, Massage Therapy, Nutrition, Herbal Medicine, and the Body Ready Method® to offer well-rounded care tailored to each individual.

At the Sage Nest, I provide support that spans the entire motherhood journey—from managing early pregnancy symptoms and preparing for an empowered birth, to gentle, restorative care in the fourth trimester and beyond. Each session is personalised to address not just the physical, but also the emotional and energetic shifts that come with matrescence.

Birth preparation is a particular focus of my work. I help women feel physically aligned, emotionally grounded, and mentally ready for labour and birth. My sessions may include acupuncture, bodywork, breath techniques, acupressure, body alignment and partner-inclusive education to build confidence and reduce fear. Whether you’re planning your first birth or looking for support after a previous experience, I create a space where you feel informed, prepared, and supported.

For new mothers needing extra support, I also offer postpartum home visits across the Newcastle region. These sessions bring hands-on care, comfort, and therapeutic treatments to your doorstep during a time when leaving the house can feel overwhelming. It’s a beautiful way to receive nurturing support in your own familiar space while you rest and recover.

I love helping women feel more confident in themselves and their mothering. It’s a privilege to witness mothers reach their goals, feel more at ease, and reconnect with themselves during this powerful life transition. It’s an honour to support that process.

Ana Ristov is a registered Psychologist and accredited Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Clinician with a deep commitment to supporting women through the full arc of the perinatal experience – from preconception, pregnancy, and birth, to the early years of parenting.

Ana understands that becoming a parent is about so much more than having a baby. It’s a profound identity shift – matrescence – as complex and transformative as adolescence, only with far less societal guidance (and much less sleep). She’s passionate about helping you navigate this journey with gentleness, self-compassion, and clarity, so that you can feel more grounded in your evolving self.

She supports clients navigating:

Pregnancy and Birth

• Managing antenatal and postnatal anxiety or depression
• Feeling anxious or uncertain about giving birth
• Recovering emotionally from a difficult or traumatic birth
• Making sense of your birth experience

Postnatal Identity & Adjustment

• Finding your footing in the early stages of parenthood (matrescence)
• Reconnecting with who you are outside of motherhood
• Adjusting to new roles, expectations, and daily rhythms
• Struggling with body image or pressure to ‘bounce back’
• Realigning with your core values in this new season of life

Parenting & Connection

• Strengthening your bond and emotional connection with your baby
• Tuning in to your child’s needs while learning to trust your instincts
• Exploring feelings of frustration, anger, or “mum rage”

Relationships, Roles & Boundaries

• Navigating shifts in your relationship or co-parenting dynamic
• Setting boundaries to protect your wellbeing and your child’s
• Preparing for or settling back into paid work after leave

Ana knows what it’s like to be in the thick of it – she’s navigated many of the same struggles that you might be experiencing right now. Her style is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. She works from the belief that you are the expert in your own life, and that therapy is a space for curiosity, reflection, and renewal. Her approach integrates attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and evidence-based therapeutic frameworks – all held within a safe and supportive relationship.

Whether you’re preparing for pregnancy, navigating the early postpartum haze, or simply wondering where you went in all of this – Ana offers a space to gently land, reflect, and begin to feel more like yourself again.

Hi, I’m Mandy — a registered perinatal psychologist, mum of three (including a new baby born in 2025), and the founder of Mums in Bloom.

I support pregnant and new mothers who are finding this season more emotional, confusing, or isolating than they expected. If you’ve ever thought, “I love my baby, but I feel like I’m falling apart,” you are exactly who I support — and you are not alone.

With over a decade of experience in psychology, my work focuses on the real inner world of motherhood — the mental load, identity shifts, emotional ups and downs, and pressure to do it all “right.” I bring both my professional background and personal lived experience to create a space where you feel seen, validated, and supported.

At Mums in Bloom, I offer gentle resources for both pregnancy and postpartum, including:

🌸 Free guides for third trimester prep and those “not-what-I-expected” early weeks

🌸 Low-cost seminars on body image and postnatal mental health

🌸 A beautifully supportive 8-week online program for first-time mums in the first 6–8 months postpartum

🌸 A mini guide for partners to help them show up, step in, and stay connected during this major life transition

Whether you’re feeling anxious, flat, overwhelmed, or just unsure who you are anymore, I’m here to walk alongside you. My support is gentle, practical, and free of judgment — like chatting with a mum-friend who gets it, but with the expertise to back it up.

I believe motherhood was never meant to be done alone. Let’s make sure you don’t have to.

I am a Member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and fully registered with AHPRA.

I am an IBCLC, Registered Paediatric and Neonatal Nurse and Mum of two girls.

I have a passion for holistic lactation support, meeting families right where they are in their feeding journey, acknowledging and embracing individual needs and goals for navigating feeding, both short and long term.

I love working one-on-one, and I usually conduct home visits to bring support right to your door. As well as my private practice, I still work part-time in NICU, supporting families in the very earliest, vulnerable and precious days after birth, which is such a privileged job that I truly adore.

My approach is always to listen, to bring kindness as well as experience to your situation, along with a big dose of cheerleading!

Lauren is an Endorsed Private Practice Midwife with an excellent reputation in Brisbane for supporting women and families as they journey to—and through—one of life’s most transformative transitions. She works with a whole-family approach, preparing parents not only for pregnancy and birth but also for the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual shifts that come with parenthood and welcoming a new baby.

As a First 1000 Days advocate and nervous system-certified practitioner, Lauren is passionate about equipping families with the tools to build healthy bonds and secure attachments, promoting positive early childhood experiences. This critical period lays the foundation for healthy infant brain development and long-term emotional wellbeing. Lauren empowers parents to connect with their own intuition rather than looking outside themselves for answers.

Lauren provides a variety of Medicare-rebatable appointment types, including:

• Pregnancy care for women alongside their chosen care provider – whether booked to birth through the public system or a private maternity hospital. Lauren is a strong advocate for collaborative models of care and can offer:

  • Shared care with private obstetricians across two clinics in Brisbane

  • Support as part of your care team alongside GPs or hospital clinics

• Birth Mapping appointments – helping you explore your preferences and decision points along the way

• Routine postnatal care – including mother and baby checks, breastfeeding support, perinatal wellbeing, and birth debriefing

• Postnatal in-home care packages – servicing inner north Brisbane and surrounds

• Baby Massage education – 1:1 sessions or private small groups for three or more friends

• Closing the Bones Ceremony – a deeply nurturing postpartum ritual rooted in traditional cultural practices, used to honour and support the profound transition into motherhood

In addition, Lauren offers ‘Mothering the Midwife’ Retreats, designed to support the wellbeing of those who hold this professional responsibility. These one-day retreats are created for nurses and midwives to reset their nervous systems, reconnect with themselves, and maintain balance to help prevent compassion fatigue and burnout.

I combine holistic psychotherapy and neuro-science based coaching to support women's mental and emotional wellbeing as they navigate their motherhood journey.

Northern Beaches Midwifery offers the gold standard “Continuity of Care”. As a mother, Registered Nurse, Endorsed Midwife & Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I offer the guidance and support you need in the postnatal period. Here’s how I can assist you:

Personalised Support Every mother-baby duo is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs. Which ever way you choose to feed your baby, breastfeeding, mixed feeding or formula, if this is your first time or have prior experience, I’m here to help you overcome any challenges.

Comprehensive Knowledge I stay current with the latest research and best practices in lactation and responsive parenting. From latching techniques to concerns about milk supply, settling baby and the normal newborn behaviour can be very confusing. I’m ready to answer your questions and provide evidence-based solutions to help you reach your breastfeeding goals.

Emotional Support I understand that a newborn baby can be an emotional journey. Alongside practical assistance, I create a caring and nurturing environment where you can freely discuss your concerns. I’m here to listen and encourage you throughout the process.

Flexible Appointments I offer both in-person visits and online virtual consultations to suit your preferences. I can schedule appointments at times that work best for you, whether you’re at home or on the go.

6-Week Postnatal Care Packages After the birth of your baby and following your hospital discharge, I will visit you at home to provide support and guidance, ensuring a successful confident start to your parenting/breastfeeding journey. Research shows that women who receive support during this time tend to breastfeed for longer. Individualised postnatal packages attract a Medicare rebate if you are within the 6-week postnatal period.

Post-Consultation Care My commitment to your journey doesn’t end with one session. If you choose, I offer ongoing support and follow-ups to help you thrive as you continue your breastfeeding experience.

Don’t let breastfeeding and challenges hold you back. Let me support you in this incredible bonding experience with your little one. Contact me today to book your personalised consultation and discover the keys to successful breastfeeding, and confident parenting

Together, we’ll make your journey fulfilling for both you and your baby! Every mother deserves the best start.

Hi, I’m Sarah – the heart behind The Sleep Sanctuary. I’m a Certified Baby & Toddler Sleep Consultant, Newborn Care Specialist, and experienced Night Nanny with over 20 years of hands-on experience supporting babies, young children, and their families.

I’m also a proud mum of three, and it was my own journey through motherhood that ignited my deep passion for supporting others through the wild, beautiful, and often overwhelming early years of parenting. My experiences have shaped the way I support families today — with empathy, practical guidance, and a strong commitment to nurturing both infant and maternal wellbeing.

At The Sleep Sanctuary, our primary services include:

– Sleep Consulting for newborns through to toddlers

– Night Nanny Support to give families hands-on rest and recovery

– Postpartum Support and Care to gently guide and support you through those early weeks and months

We also offer support with settling, routine development, early nutrition, breastfeeding, bottle feeding, and responsive care for unsettled or sensitive babies.

My approach is gentle, holistic, and tailored — always led by your parenting values and your baby’s unique temperament. Whether you’re navigating the newborn haze, toddler sleep regressions, or just craving a full night’s rest, you’re not alone. I’m here to walk alongside you with practical, nurturing support so you and your little one can get the rest you truly deserve.

We are both paramedics and mothers who are passionate about providing you with the knowledge and skills to keep your babies and children safe.

Unfortunately, as paramedics we have attended too many jobs whereby the baby or child’s health was jeopardised due to family members or bystanders having little-to-no knowledge of how to help in a medical emergency, or provide first aid.

Emergency situations can happen anywhere and anytime.The moments between calling an ambulance, and the ambulance arriving DO matter and you CAN make a difference.

We come to your home to train you and your family/friends (minimum 6-10 people required depending on your location).

We service Sydney and the Gold Coast.

Hello, my name is Leonie. I’m a mum, wife and an empathetic full spectrum Doula, with a focus on Pregnancy Loss. My family and I live in the Northern Beaches. I love nature, friends, animals and volunteering in the community.

After my own experience with loss, I’m passionate to help other bereaved parents. As a ‘loss’ Doula and peer, I offer reassurance, support and resources. I’m here to walk alongside you, holding space with empathy and understanding, during this difficult time. Aiming to assist you and your loved ones in having the most meaningful and peaceful transition possible. Whether that is the first or last breath, and sadly sometimes both.

Hi, I’m Sarah — a Sydney-based maternity, newborn, and baby photographer with a studio in Norwest. I specialise in capturing natural, love-filled moments for growing families, with a calm and guided experience from start to finish.

I’ve been behind the camera for over 7 years and have poured my heart into creating meaningful experiences for mothers and families during the most fleeting seasons of life — pregnancy, newborn days, and baby milestones.

My photography style is warm, minimal, and timeless — no awkward posing, just real connection and emotion. Whether you’re dreaming of a glowing golden hour maternity session, a relaxed studio newborn shoot, or documenting your baby’s milestones (think 6, 9, or 12 months), I’m here to help you slow down and soak in this season while I turn it into memories you’ll treasure forever.

My studio has been lovingly designed with mums and bubs in mind — soft lighting, luxe yet cozy furnishings, and a curated client wardrobe so you don’t need to stress about what to wear. I also guide you every step of the way so you feel comfortable, supported, and confident in front of the camera.

More than just photos, these sessions are about honouring your journey into motherhood — the love, the chaos, the quiet in-between. It’s about capturing you exactly as you are in this season, and preserving it in a way that feels honest, beautiful, and true to you.

If you’re a new or expecting mum and thinking, “I don’t want to forget this moment,” then I’d love to be the one to help you hold onto it.

Let’s create something meaningful together.

Hi, I’m Ashley. Mama of two, passionately supporting Mothers in their transition to motherhood, or motherhood again. Phlox Postpartum doula services, is founded on a desire to support women and families.

Hi, I’m Amy, I am a specialist grief counsellor and I work with women and families facing losses (death-related and non-death-related losses across the lifespan).

Something has happened and you are now trying to pick up the pieces. Grief is often a lonely journey and can feel all consuming. Whether you are trying to start or grow your family, adjusting to pregnancy or early parenting challenges, navigating pregnancy or parenting after loss, or figuring out how to ‘be you’ and still parent in a way that feels congruent to your life values, I am here to hold space for these conversations.

Matrescence is the transition we make from maiden to mother, likened to adolescence, and it is a transition of mind, body, soul and spirit.

As a therapist in this space, I walk alongside you as a companion while you navigate the complexity and challenges of living with loss. Together we create a safe space for your experience to be witnessed, for you to tell the truth about your grief, to be seen and heard without judgment.

You do not have to do this journey alone.

Hi! I’m Dr Rosie Pajak, a perinatal Clinical Psychologist and mum of two. After many years of working with parents impacted by birth trauma, I founded The Birth Healing Collective to bring support and healing to more families across Australia.

I’m particularly passionate about helping women overcome anxiety in subsequent pregnancies and regain confidence when heading into their next birth.

I developed my unique Better Birth Program so you can enjoy more of your pregnancy, knowing you are doing all you can to emotionally prepare yourself for a much more positive birth experience.

Check out the various free resources on our site, then come and join us inside Better Birth for genuine support throughout your pregnancy.

Nesting Space is a dedicated private mental health occupational therapy practice specialising in perinatal services. We are committed to nurturing and supporting the mental well-being of birthing parents and enriching the lives of their families throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and the early stages of parenthood.

Hi I’m Juliette, I’m a mum and with nearly a decade of experience as a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, I am deeply passionate about my work. I have firsthand experience with the challenges of navigating mental health struggles during pregnancy and the postnatal period. Having personally faced the isolation of postnatal anxiety, rage, and depression following a traumatic birth, I understand the profound impact that seeking help early can have. This realisation inspired me to establish Nesting Space, as I recognized the vital role an Occupational Therapist can play in supporting women and their families during the antenatal and postnatal periods.

Becoming a mother was a transformative experience for me—physically, psychologically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The discovery of matrescence, the transition into motherhood, solidified my calling to this field. I deeply understand the ambivalence that can accompany motherhood and the neurocognitive changes that occur after pregnancy and birth.

Node Mothers and the Node Motherhood Centre were created with one big goal in mind to support mums, not just motherhood.

Founded by Melissa Decarli a mum, photographer, and someone who’s walked the highs and lows of matrescence, Node began as a simple idea: what if mothers’ groups were less about milestone checklists and more about real connection, honest chats, and feeling seen.

Since then, it’s grown into a beautiful community of women who meet weekly across Ballarat (and online), not just to talk about their babies, but to talk about themselves. Whether it’s a new mum with a six-week-old or a second-time mum with a busy toddler in tow, our groups and sessions focus on the woman behind the role.

The Node Motherhood Centre is a warm, welcoming space built for mums to take a breath and be held. We run 10-week mothers’ groups, toddler groups, workshops, and events, always with a focus on connection, community, and gentle encouragement to be exactly who you are that day.

Melissa brings a real, lived-in understanding of what it means to hold so much at once; motherhood, identity, relationships, business, and the in-between. Through her photography business Her Golden Point, she’s had the privilege of capturing thousands of motherhood moments and those honest, tender connections are at the heart of everything she creates with Node.

We’re not here to tell mums what to do. We’re here to walk alongside them. We talk about the messy middle of motherhood, the beautiful chaos, the doubts, the growth and we do it with humour, heart, and a whole lot of love.

If you’re a brand wanting to connect with mothers in a way that truly resonates, Node offers direct access to a trusted, engaged, and emotionally connected audience. We speak with and support our mums every week, and everything we do is built on trust, relatability, and genuine care.

At Node, we don’t just support mums – we see them. And that’s where real impact begins.

Hi, I’m Sam – Birth & postpartum doula and childbirth educator providing in-person support to new and expecting families.

It was my own experiences with pregnancy, birth and postpartum that stirred in me a deep passion for supporting families on all stages through this journey. As a birth doula, I walk with you as you get ready for the birth of your baby, helping you to feel supported and empowered to make informed decisions and prepare for a calm and peaceful birth, including full support during labour at home or in hospital

I provide nurturing care to replenish and nourish the new mother as she recovers from childbirth and transitions into life with her new baby.

I help new mums, dads and families as they prepare for and adjust to life with a newborn by providing informational, physical and emotional care – taking the load off, so that the beautiful chaos of postpartum can be a smooth and fulfilling experience.

I understand that each family is unique and has different needs, so my services are designed to be flexible and to support families wherever they’re at, in the best way that will enrich their postpartum journey.

Hi, I’m Dr. Erin Hawken, a passionate Chiropractor dedicated to supporting mothers, babies, and families in their journey to a calm, clear, connected and resilient life. Having completed my postgraduate study in Chiropractic care for pregnancy, babies and children and being certificatied in the Webster technique, I have almost 20 years experience in looking after families through all the important times in life.

My journey in chiropractic began in my own family, where regular Chiropractic care was our first approach to health. This lifelong experience taught me that Chiropractic is more than just treating symptoms – it’s about creating a pathway to better living, healing, and connection.

I care for people with many different needs including:

• Newborns struggling with constipation, feeding issues, or reflux
• Mothers experiencing pregnancy-related discomfort or simply wanting to optimise their body for birth and beyond
• Children struggling to meet their developmental milestones
• Families seeking holistic health and stress management
• Professionals dealing with stress, sleep issues, energy and mood challenges

My gentle, compassionate approach focuses on helping your nervous system change gears into your parasympathetic, rest & digest state – this is where your body can truly regulate and regenerate itself. This state is crucial for healing, development, creativity, and even experiencing deeper connections with yourself and your loved ones.

Whether you’re an expecting mother, a new parent, or simply someone seeking a more balanced, resilient approach to health, I’m here to support you. My goal is to help you rediscover life through a healthier body and a more clear, connected state of being. Let’s work together to unlock your body’s incredible potential for healing, growth, and well-being.

Birth & Beyond Education provides comprehensive birth, parenting, and feeding education, along with postnatal support, birth debriefs and home visits. Founded by highly experienced midwives, Lucy & Kristin, their mission is to empower expectant parents with honest, realistic, and evidence-based education. As practising hospital midwives, they understand firsthand the unpredictability of birth and the journey to parenthood, so they have designed their workshops to equip parents with the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed to make informed decisions and navigate birth, feeding, and early parenthood with clarity and assurance.

Classes are taught in small, intimate groups, creating a comfortable space for learning and discussion. Virtual education is available for those unable to attend in person to ensure all parents have access to quality support.

In-person workshops are held in Manly, offering a welcoming environment where parents can gain the knowledge and skills needed for a positive birth and parenting experience.

MothersClub – An inclusive space to support you on your journey into motherhood.

Hi, I’m Meghan. Mama, Pre & Postnatal Yoga Teacher, Postpartum Doula and Founder of MothersClub.

My intention for MothersClub is to create a space where mothers at all stages – conception, pregnancy, and postpartum can come together to share stories, mindfully move their bodies, and feel nourished by one another. Because when women gather magic and healing can happen.

We live in a world where we have lost the ancient art of village building, especially in the season of motherhood. We were never meant to do this alone, MothersClub is here to change that!

Our offerings include – Prenatal Yoga, Mums & Bubs classes, Birth Education, In-home Postpartum Care, Workshops and Events.

Hello, we are Helen & Karen and we are the founders of Nurturing Nurses. We each bring over 25 years of experience in Neonatal and Paediatric Nursing and still work in clinical practice in a Special Care Nursery in a Brisbane based Maternity unit. We are also Certified Infant Massage Instructors and want to share with you our extensive knowledge of newborns through our in-person Newborn Care Masterclass and our range of online Infant Massage videos.

We are dedicated to empowering families with the confidence, skills, and reassurance they need through education, hands-on support and evidence based practices both within our classes and online instruction videos. Our Masterclass is delivered by expert Neonatal Nurses who are devoted to teaching and assisting parents in their journey through the early weeks with a newborn. The class is both informative and practical, with opportunities for hands on practice and a bespoke question and answer session. Demonstrations include bathing, swaddling, nappy changes, infant massage principles, cord care, settling techniques, home safety and much more.

We have a wealth of experience of the developing newborn and are both mothers ourselves,  We offer to you a series of online videos for purchase to teach you the benefits of Infant Massage, whether you are seeking a remedy for digestive issues such as colic, or if you simply want to enhance bonding and attachment with your baby. These videos, once purchased are yours to keep and watch any time you want, working through at your own pace.  Videos can be purchased via direct links on our website. We also offer a range of free educational videos through our YouTube channel relating to aspects of Infant Massage and ‘All Things Baby’.

Hi, I’m Dominique McGuire – degree-qualified naturopath and founder of The Pillars Naturopathy, based in Manly Beach and also available Australia-wide via Telehealth. I work closely with women and families to support everything from digestive health and hormone balance to fatigue, skin issues, and mood.

As both a practitioner and a human, I know that true healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I take a compassionate, evidence-based approach to naturopathy, blending functional testing with clinical nutrition, herbal medicine, and realistic lifestyle advice to help you feel like you again – not just as a mum, but as a whole person.

Many of the women I work with come to me feeling burnt out, bloated, and like their bodies just aren’t working the way they used to. Some are navigating postpartum hormone shifts, breastfeeding challenges, or period issues after coming off contraception. Others are struggling with gut issues, low energy, or anxiety that seems to have worsened since becoming a parent. Wherever you’re at, we work together to get to the root cause and create a plan that fits in with your life – even if that life currently includes toddlers, night feeds, or limited time for yourself.

I offer comprehensive one-on-one support as well as structured programs like my Gut Feeling program, which includes microbiome testing, personalised protocols, and weekly check-ins. I’m also experienced in helping women prepare for pregnancy, optimise postpartum recovery, and support their children’s gut and immune health using gentle, targeted naturopathic care.

Above all, this is a safe, non-judgemental space to be honest about how you’re feeling. Whether you’re an expecting mum, navigating early motherhood, or trying to get your health back after years of putting yourself last – you’re in the right place.

Let’s work together to help you feel energised, empowered, and supported again.

Hello! I am Courtney, a family photographer. My photo sessions are not just about creating images, they are about crafting memories to be cherished for generations to come.

Hi, I’m Alice and I help women step off the emotional rollercoaster and become the mothers they want to be.

Combining my experience as a Midwife, Fertility Nurse, Maternal and Child Health Nurse, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Practitioner and Hypnotherapist, my holistic approach integrates my professional experience with my gentle and intuitive nature.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of your fertility, experiencing fear or worry about pregnancy or birth or feeling lost in the early parenting years… I am here to support you on your journey. Because when so much of this journey can feel out of your control, I can help you take control over your mindset, your thoughts and the lens through which you see and experience motherhood.

By working with the subconscious mind, I can help you get ‘unstuck’ from any limiting beliefs that are holding you back, so that you can move forward in your next chapter feeling empowered, confident, optimistic and clear on your path forward.

What is RTT?

RTT uniquely blends principles of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, neurolinguistic programming, cognitive behavioural therapy, neuroscience and neuroplasticity to deliver fast, effective and long-lasting results. Ultimately RTT aims to get to the root cause of the ‘problem’ you’re experiencing, identify any subconscious blocks or limiting beliefs and clear these so that you can move forward with new, positive and supportive beliefs that align with your vision for motherhood. This process doesn’t just change how you think, it changes what you believe about yourself, how you feel, how you behave and how you experience the world.

If you have questions about whether RTT is suitable for you or how I could help, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I offer complimentary calls and I’m always more than happy to answer questions.

My name is Sacha Rendoth, and it is my absolute pleasure to support families with sleep, settling and feeding.  As a mother of 4, a certified Sleep Sense™ Consultant and a registered midwife, I have over 15 years of experience.

With gentle and customised methods, to suit each child and each family, I work with parents to support them to teach their babies and children sleeping and feeding rhythms that last. We work together to literally bring a settlement and flow to you, your child, and your family.

Settle & Flow’s sleep programs will completely change your life and can help with areas such as confidence with self-settling, feeding, understanding sleep regressions, and working towards sleeping through the night. The support I offer to make changes is gentle and gradual, offering a step-by-step individual approach. I look at what may holistically be affecting sleep in a caring and understanding way.

I love uniquely supporting families and tailoring the sleep program to what is needed for your specific baby or child; whether it be sleeping through the night, napping independently, self settling, or stopping feeding to sleep; just to name a few goals you may have. Sleep is the greatest gift you can give yourself and your family.

I’m Paula, an Endorsed Midwife and the founder of Pause Postpartum, a private midwifery service supporting families in the early weeks after birth.

From feeding support, newborn care and settling, physical check-ups, or holding space for the emotional aspect of this huge life transition, we are establishing a new standard of postpartum care.

Hi, I’m Kirsten! I’m an Australian-trained and registered osteopath with over 20 years of clinical experience, offering holistic osteopathic care for the whole family. I have a special interest in pregnancy and postpartum care, and I love working with babies and children of all ages.

In addition to my osteopathic training, I am also a registered International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). This unique combination allows me to integrate gentle, effective bodywork with evidence-based lactation support—helping mothers overcome challenges and achieve their individual breastfeeding goals, whatever they may be.

I began my career as a senior associate osteopath in a busy private clinic in Australia, where I worked for three years before relocating to Singapore in 2008.

Hi, I am Angelina — a Clinical Perinatal Psychologist, HypnoBirthing Practitioner and Matrescence Educator. With a passion for women’s health and perinatal psychology, I recognise the perinatal period—from preconception through to parenthood—as a time filled with both immense wonder and incredible challenges.

I founded The Growth Room, a space inspired by my own transformative journey into motherhood, including my second pregnancy during the COVID-19 pandemic. My personal experiences of navigating motherhood, particularly in the face of isolation and uncertainty, deepened my understanding of the holistic support women need during this life stage. As a result, The Growth Room focuses on providing education, nurturing, and mental health support for women navigating the profound physical, emotional, and psychological changes of pregnancy and motherhood.

In addition to psychological therapy for women in the perinatal period, in which I adopt a strengths-based, collaborative therapeutic approach, The Growth Room also offers childbirth education through HypnoBirthing courses. These courses help expectant mothers and their partners feel empowered and prepared for birth through relaxation techniques, guided visualisations, and education.

The Growth Room focuses on acknowledging the emotional, mental, and physical changes that occur during pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, creating a nurturing environment where women can access both therapeutic support and practical tools like HypnoBirthing to foster a supported transition to motherhood.

At The Growth Room we are passionate about creating a therapeutic space where women can feel empowered, reflect on their experiences, and grow in confidence as they navigate pregnancy, birth and motherhood.

Hi, I’m Claire! I’m a perinatal counsellor, parenting cheerleader and mother. I’ve worked with hundreds of parents struggling in silence and it’s my mission to make early parenthood way more fun and way less sh*t.

I understand how it feels to doubt yourself, as a parent, and to struggle mentally, feeling like you’ve lost yourself. I’ve been there too.

Through compassionate counselling or birth debriefing, I can help you work through the ups and downs of life as a parent, and find heaps more confidence and self-compassion.

I also run an epic postpartum preparation and support program called Beyond Birth, and offer evidence-based, holistic parenting support once your little one arrives.

I believe parenting is too difficult and too beautiful to do alone. I’d be honoured to be part of your village of support.

Born Ready is a birth education course developed by Pelvic Health Physiotherapists.

As physiotherapists we know the importance of both physical and mental preparation. Like all physical endurance sports preparation is KEY. We know how to educate well and help you get the best out of your body for the most important physical event of your life.

Born Ready is evidenced based to empower you with the thorough knowledge you need to decide on the birth that is best for you. The more options you are aware of, the more likely you are to choose the right one for you.

We appreciate no matter what you “choose” sometimes birth does not go to plan. In this case, because you are armed with a deep understanding of labour and birth we have found women are more able to rationalise, accept, and be ok with the deviations from their plan.

Respecting choice is important to us. We appreciate that the right choice is different for each and every person. From home birth and birth centres to elective caesarean section we have the tools you need.

Our course is an online course with the option of a free face-to-face practical at over 25 locations across the country.

My name is Mel! I’m an experienced Occupational Therapist and founder of Motherscape. My aim is to support women, new mothers and parents by helping establish healthy routines, personalised interventions and adaptations tailored to your individual situation. At Motherscape we support women’s health across their lifespan and ensure that you feel informed and connected. We provide you with a secure point of reference and together we jointly develop tools and resources for you to use in the future. By carefully developing an anchor like this, any challenging times you might encounter along the way, are easier to navigate through.

The transition to motherhood or ‘matrescence’ brings with it significant life changes. Yet at this challenging time, culturally we tend to focus our attention on the new baby, rather than the physical and psychological needs of the mother. However many families are struggling alone through what should be one of the most joyful times in their lives. The individual needs of the mother then, as well as those of the family as a whole, are frequently not being addressed.

‘Motherscape’ came about as I wanted to create a meaningful impact on the landscape of each individual and their family. The experience of being a mother, as well as managing other significant life stages such as perimenopause & menopause, can bring with it vast and ever-changing terrain. Each woman navigates their own unique landscape encountering peaks of joy, valleys of exhaustion and many winding roads of change and growth. Just like no person is the same, I don’t feel that every approach should be the same either.

Motherscape is guided by evidence, and the individual needs of each woman, and their family. I have carried out research into women’s health and this has helped guide best practice. These are consistently being reviewed, and we strive to build strong networks to ensure that you receive the best support possible! Consistent, reliable, sensitive and thoughtful.

It would be an honour to support you throughout your unique journey; every step of the way!

When you’re tired, confused, overwhelmed and even frustrated about sleep, it can just about rob your joy as a Mum. And then that pressure about there being ‘one right way’ and wading through conflicting guidance. My name is Annie and I’d love to help you find YOUR right way with YOUR unique baby, family and situation. Without sleep training, without being told to ‘wait it out’ and without limiting one-size-fits-all ideas that ignore the evidence about infant and child sleep.

I am a psychologist working in the area of maternal mental health and am passionate about helping mothers navigate the ups and downs of motherhood. After becoming a mother myself, I realised what an immense adjustment it is and how mothers need to be better supported.Mothers need to be nourished physically, mentally and emotionally just as much as the babies do.

She founded The Sick Sense to close the gap in community health literacy — giving parents, carers, and educators the skills and confidence to recognise when a child is unwell, act quickly, and know when to seek urgent help.

Unlike generic first aid courses, The Sick Sense is paediatric-specific and goes beyond the basics. Workshops blend expert medical knowledge with real-world scenarios, covering sickness recognition, red flag signs, and practical responses to emergencies like choking, burns, and poisoning. Participants leave feeling prepared, empowered, and supported — not overwhelmed.

Delivering sessions across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, the Hunter, and the Central Coast — and now through an online, bite-sized version — Ilana’s mission is simple: to create informed, confident advocates for children’s health, so more families can make the right call at the right time — and potentially save a life.

I’m Leah — an intuitive and compassionate postpartum doula and Overe practitioner in specialised kinesiology, based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

I offer new mothers deep reverence and nourishing support as they begin life with their baby—gently guiding them through the powerful transition from maiden to mother, known as matrescence.

As a devoted mother myself, and a skilled practitioner in specialised kinesiology, heart centered bodywork, women’s rituals, ie closing of the bones, mothers blessings and women’s circles.

I understand and have seen first hand how vitally important it is for a woman’s whole being to be tended to on all levels—physically, emotionally, energetically, and mentally. So there can be less anxiety, fear, and overload and more joy, understanding, celebration and connection.

I support women both in person through postpartum visits and online, across the globe, at every stage of life. My work is grounded in the sacred seasons of birth, postpartum, and beyond, through the lens of specialised kinesiology, bodywork, and feminine ritual.

I help you shift limiting beliefs, release emotional blocks, and unravel negative thought patterns—while guiding you back to a deep connection with your unique essence. I hold a very safe, sacred space for you to reconnect with yourself as you shapeshift through the profound rites of passage that womanhood presents.

Areas of passion and support

• Postpartum journeys – in-home visits – 4 or 6 weekly
• Specialised kinesiology sessions
• Womans circles
• Mother’s blessings
• Bodywork
• Closing of the bones

Sing High Sing Low – Singing for Mums & Bubs With Fiona Maria – Singing Facilitator, hearted-centred Community Builder

When was the last time you felt nourished and held?

Hi, I’m Fiona Maria, founder of Sing High Sing Low. I offer gentle, joyful singing spaces where women of all life stages can simply be. No pressure, no performance—just breath, song, and connection.

My Women’s Singing Circles run in Summer Hill, Bondi, and coming to Crows Nest in September. These are not your usual mothers’ groups. We gather in calm, welcoming spaces to sing simple songs learned by ear—soothing, repetitive melodies that settle the nervous system and invite us home to ourselves. We layer up some harmonies as the mood of the day takes us. Shy singers, “non singers” and karaoke divas are all welcome!

Together we (re) connect to our voices and ourselves.

How it’s different to other “mums & bubs” groups

Many baby classes focus on entertaining your child. This is different. These sessions nourish you, the mother, the woman. When you’re calm, connected, and resourced, everyone benefits. You’ll leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and able to manage what life throws at us.

Women’s Singing Circle is open to women of all life stages—because we know it takes a village, but we don’t always know where to find one!

Why Singing with Your Baby Matters

Long before language, babies are wired to respond to your voice. Singing regulates their heart rate, lowers stress, and builds secure attachment.

And it helps you too—singing reduces anxiety, lifts your mood, and brings a deep sense of connection.

This is not a performance. It’s a practice—one that is a timeless part of the human experience. For generations, mothers sang to soothe their children, mark daily rhythms, and build community. But in our modern world, this shared singing culture has been lost. I’m here to help bring it back.

A Little About Me

I’ve spent over 20 years singing, performing, and facilitating voice work in community and workplace settings. As a trained Singing Mamas leader, I bring a model rooted in care, inclusion, and the science of sound and wellbeing.

You’re warmly invited. Come with little ones—or just as you are.

Dr. Pree Benton is a registered Health Psychologist with over 10 years of clinical experience and a special interest in women’s mental health including: perinatal mental health, fertility challenges, eating disorders and body image issues, women’s pain, and trauma.

Pree appreciates that the perinatal period creates a monumental shift in identity and can bring up many new and old feelings to work through.

Pree supports mothers navigating:

• antenatal/postnatal anxiety and depression
• pregnancy loss
• worries about birth
• processing your birth
• adjusting to parenthood and changes in identity (matrescence!) •
• enhancing bonding and attachment with your child
• anger/”mum rage”
• body image and feeling pressure to ‘bounce back’
• relationship changes and sharing the parenting load
• setting boundaries with others to prioritise your and your child’s needs
• adjusting to returning to paid work

Pree believes the foundation of good therapy is connection. Therapy is about trust and honesty, and with a solid connection you can be supported to work through your challenges and find new ways to get your needs met. Pree’s approach also centres around the values of integrity, centering you as the expert in your own life, empowerment, advocacy and transparency.

As a mother of two small children herself, Pree has also personally navigated many of the challenges you may be finding yourself wading through.

Babies and young toddlers are welcome in sessions.

My care involves the ancient lineage of care through Jamu massage, 3 layers of binding and wrapping and Jamu abdominal herbs.

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.
