Nurtured Medical is a bespoke medical clinic offering support for preconception, pregnancy, postpartum and early parenthood, including breastfeeding/ feeding support and infant and child sleep support for new parents.

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

Hi my name is Janine. I’ve been so lucky to work with many mums, dads, babies and their families over the past 30 years as a registered nurse specialising in obstetrics and as a trained mentor, birth and postpartum doula, educator and mum of 3.  I’m truly passionate about supporting families as they grow and transition into their wonderful fourth trimester and settle into life as parents and as a new family.  It’s a joy to see parents grow in confidence and enjoy this precious time surrounded by love, nourishment, nurturing care, practical help, and a kind guiding hand to support them. Caring for the new and healing mum is so important as she is able to rest and get to know her little one.

It’s a privilege to be part of this wonderful journey with them all.

MATERNITY REVIEW * * * * * “We had such a fantastic maternity shoot with Martine. I always have reservations about getting photos done as my husband and I are always a little awkward in front of the camera but Martine put us at ease and offered some guidance while also giving lots of space for us to be ourselves. I am in love with all of the images!”

MOTHERHOOD MINI REVIEW * * * * * “An exceptionally professional and exhilarating experience. I am overjoyed to have found Martine and am so glad I invited her into our home. I fell in love with her work instantly but didn’t think my own shots would compare to her other work- but boy was I wrong! Not only do I feel empowered and so in love with what my body has created and achieved, but I am so grateful that she has captured such a milestone in our lives in a raw and natural way. The best thing I’ve ever done for myself.”
