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.

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

Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m a Registered Music Therapist and trained Neonatal Intensive Care Music Therapist, passionate about walking alongside families through the joys and challenges of early parenthood.

After working in acute paediatrics, NICU and infant programs, I founded LA Therapy to provide warm, family-centred music therapy for infants, parents and caregivers during the perinatal period and beyond. My work is all about using music as a tool for connection, confidence and wellbeing – whether that’s helping a baby feel safe and calm, supporting bonding, easing ongoing hospital experiences, or giving parents space to breathe, process and feel supported.

At LA Therapy, I offer:

Individual supports – Tailored sessions for babies, parents, or the whole family, focusing on development, parent-infant attachment, NICU/SCN transitions, emotional wellbeing, and perinatal mental health. Music can become part of everyday routines – from sleep and settling to play and exploration – making life feel a little lighter and more connected.

Group programs – Come together with other families in a supportive, welcoming space.

• Connect & Bloom – A music group especially for families who’ve experienced a NICU or SCN admission.
• Mini & Me Melodies – A playful music and bonding group for parents and babies (0–12 months).

Whether you’re navigating pregnancy, adjusting after birth, or supporting your little one’s growth, my aim is to create a safe, nurturing space where music helps you and your baby thrive.

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.

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.

Hi, I’m Alice! 

After over ten years supporting women in the motherhood space as a midwife, fertility nurse and child family health nurse, I now combine hypnotherapy and Human Design to provide holistic support for women in their motherhood journeys. 

Human Design brings greater understanding of who you are and how you’re wired so that you can navigate life and motherhood with more ease and self-compassion, while hypnotherapy works at the subconscious level to release fears and doubts so that you can move forward with clarity and confidence. 

I support women at all different stages of their motherhood journeys from preconception, pregnancy, postpartum and early parenthood and offer a holistic, intuitive and tailored approach. My offerings include 1:1 and Mother:Child Human Design readings, hypnotherapy sessions as well as longer journeys that weave both modalities together for deeper support and transformation. 

If you have questions or are wondering how hypnotherapy or Human Design could support you, please do reach out. I’m always more than happy to help and would love to hear from you. 

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.

Keturah is passionate about the wellbeing of mothers. She is the mother of two adult sons and a Postpartum Doula.

When a child needs a medical procedure, parents aren’t given a roadmap. Instead, you may feel lost, unsure what to say, how to prepare your child, or how to help them cope.

You’re told where to go and what will happen, but not how to actually support your child through it. Meanwhile, kids are expected to handle blood tests, surgeries, and scans, just like adults, but without the tools or understanding.

At Medi Ready Kids, we change that. Our resources help you feel confident in what to say and do, so your child feels calm, supported, and safe. It’s not just about getting through an appointment- it’s about giving your child the building blocks for positive medical experiences, now and for the future.

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.

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!

Having served the Sydney community for more than 25 years as a General Practitioner, I am passionate about the health and well-being of women, children, parents, and families, and feel strongly a good GP relationship provides a foundation of support, information & education, communication between health practitioners, and care.

I believe it is not only physical and mental health that contributes to our state of wellness, but also the strength of relationships in our lives, and the families and communities to which we are connected.

As a sports woman who runs and swims regularly and a yoga instructor (Sydney Sports Stadium) I am an advocate of preventative and proactive lifestyle choices, and am comfortable combining evidence based medicine with holistic care.

In this regard, I work closely with allied health professionals involved in my clients care including Naturopaths, Chiropractors, Nutritionists etc… and welcome this important aspect of optimising health outcomes. This is particularly important in the areas of child health, fertility, pregnancy and postnatal care, maintaining a modern, fresh, comprehensive and relevant approach.

Hi! I’m Samantha, a mum of 4 and a Birth & Postpartum Doula servicing most areas of Sydney. I also teach Hypnobirthing Classes and offer Infant Massage sessions.

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

As a postpartum doula, I hold deep respect for new mothers and the sacred journey that is Matrescence. I provide nurturing care to replenish and nourish the new mother as she recovers from childbirth and transitions into life with her new baby. My postpartum services include freshly cooked meals, breastfeeding support and newborn care. 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.

Becoming a mother is one of life’s most profound transformations, yet it can also bring unexpected losses and grief that few people talk about openly. If you’re navigating the complex emotions of early motherhood, whether it’s grieving your pre-baby life, processing a difficult birth experience, or working through perinatal loss, Ali understands, and she’s here to support you.

As a Level 4 registered counsellor with the Australian Counselling Association and an Accredited Supervisor under the Rise Up Model, she’s committed to the highest standards of care.

Using evidence based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Neuropsychotherapy, Ali creates a safe, client-centred space that honours your strengths while acknowledging your pain. Her trauma-informed approach recognises that your experiences are valid and that healing happens at your own pace.

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.

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.

At The Good Birth & Beyond, I believe every mother deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported as she steps into this new chapter. Becoming a parent is both beautiful and choatic— it’s not just about learning how to care for your baby, but also about finding ways to care for yourself.

As a midwife, I offer evidence-based birth classes and private midwife support that go beyond information — I listen deeply, nurture gently, and walk alongside you with compassion. Whether you’re preparing for birth, facing sleepless nights, feeding challenges, or simply the huge shift of identity that comes with motherhood, I’m here to support the whole you. My goal is to help you feel confident, well-informed, and never alone on this journey.

The Possums Clinic has been a trusted name in infant and toddler care since its founding in 2011. Known for its evidence-based approach, the clinic has supported thousands of families through the earliest — and often most challenging,  months and years of parenthood.

At the heart of the clinic are Dr Pamela Douglas, internationally recognised leader in infant and family care, author of The Discontented Little Baby Book, and respected researcher, and Bree Cosgrove, a compassionate Registered Nurse, NDC Accredited Practitioner and educator. Together, they offer families an unparalleled level of support.

Dr Pamela and Bree provide holistic care for:

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

• Reduced postnatal depression scores

• A statistically significant reduction in infant crying times

Their work is built on four guiding pillars:

1. Supporting your baby’s rapidly developing brain
2. Protecting your mental wellbeing as a parent
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.

Motherland is a national charity that connects rural mothers across Australia. It takes a village to raise a child, but living rurally means many are isolated during their motherhood journey.

Motherland Village is Australia’s first online mother’s group program for rural mums with children aged 0-18 years. Join a small, private group of up to 10 rural women in a 6-week online program, led by a trained facilitator. Alongside your group, you’ll also gain access to expert-led content on matrescence, the mental load, self-love, parenting, and building more empathetic relationships. It takes a village. Find yours.

Scholarships are available for rural mums to access the program at no cost.

Through the Motherland podcast, Motherland Village, Scholarship Fund, Motherland Connect platform, online support network, fundraising events, and advocacy, we have become the voice and village that rural mums desperately needed but didn’t have, until Motherland.

Swoop Baby is your trusted partner for all things baby sleep. Founded by Sarah Clifton, a certified infant and toddler sleep specialist and mother of two, we help families establish healthy sleep habits from newborn through toddlerhood.

“We believe sleep should be a positive experience for both baby and parent. It’s not just about better sleep; it’s about reducing stress and helping parents enjoy the journey.”

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.

Pree supports mothers navigating:

• antenatal/postnatal anxiety and depression
• pregnancy loss
• worries about birth

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.

Hello, we are Melissa and Rachael, the sisters behind Melbourne Postpartum Services (MPS)—a small, dedicated team of postpartum professionals and doulas. With backgrounds in neuroprotective developmental care (NDC), nursing, social work, psychology, and postpartum education, we’ve combined our personal and professional expertise to create a nurturing haven for mothers and families across Melbourne’s eastern, south-eastern, outer eastern, and north-eastern suburbs.

At MPS, we believe the postpartum period should be a time of deep connection, rest, and joy—not one of exhaustion and overwhelm. That’s why we provide premium, evidence-based in-home support tailored to your unique needs. From breastfeeding guidance and settling strategies to newborn education and emotional recovery, our care meets you exactly where you are.

Our approach blends hands-on help with compassionate listening. Perhaps you’d like a nourishing meal prepared, laundry folded, or the chance to rest while we care for your baby. Maybe you need space to process your birth story, talk through your emotions, or receive expert feeding support. Whatever matters most to you in that moment, we’re there to lighten your load and help you feel truly supported.

You stay in control of your care with our “Personalisation Menu,” which offers options such as practical household help, baby care, confidence-building conversations, and newborn education. Each visit is designed to reduce stress, nourish your body, and boost your confidence—helping you not just to survive, but to genuinely enjoy this precious season.

When you invite us into your home, you’re not just hiring a service; you’re welcoming trusted allies who deeply understand the postpartum journey. Our mission is to elevate your experience so that, rather than simply getting through it, you can dare to love and truly enjoy your postpartum story.

Book your free initial consultation today—we’d love to walk alongside you and co-create a postpartum filled with nourishment, support, and confidence.

Meet Dr Hannah Dobson — a psychiatrist with a special interest in women’s mental health, particularly during the perinatal period (conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum). She combines compassionate care with evidence-based treatment, supporting women through some of life’s most vulnerable and transformative stages.

Alongside her private practice, Hannah works as a consultant psychiatrist at the Royal Women’s Hospital. This role allows her to contribute to multidisciplinary care, teach medical students, and stay connected to the public health system.

Her clinical expertise spans mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment difficulties, and the unique mental health challenges surrounding parenthood. Hannah’s approach is collaborative and patient-centred — she takes the time to understand each woman’s story, considering the biological, psychological, social and cultural factors that shape their experience.

She offers preconception counselling for women with existing mental health conditions or concerns about treatment during pregnancy, as well as ongoing care for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, birth-related trauma, perinatal loss, and adjustment to parenting. When medication is part of the picture, Hannah works closely with women (and their families, if appropriate) to weigh up risks and benefits. Her goal is informed, individualised decision-making that aligns with each woman’s values and goals for care.

Hannah is committed to creating a respectful, supportive space where women feel heard and empowered in their mental health journey.

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.

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.

Ilana Lawrence – Founder, The Sick Sense

Ilana Lawrence is a Paediatric Nurse Consultant and mum of two with over 14 years’ experience caring for children in some of NSW’s busiest hospitals and emergency departments. Having been both a clinician and a parent in the waiting room, she truly understands what it’s like on each side of the emergency triage desk.

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.

With over 15 years of experience in public and private mental health and education settings, Lauren’s approach to therapy is warm, down-to-earth, and non-judgmental. Lauren offers a space where you can reflect, process challenges, identify your strengths and deepen your self-understanding – helping you connect with your values and needs.

Lauren brings a developmental and relational perspective to therapy, utilising frameworks from attachment theory and advanced training in Circle of Security Parenting, to help you untangle your story and make sense of your thoughts, feelings, ways of relating, and experiences. In addition, she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness, somatic, and creative techniques offering support tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Babies are always welcome in sessions. Lauren also works closely with other practitioners to help you get the support you need.

In addition to individual therapy, Lauren enjoys facilitating parent education and wellbeing workshops and groups. She runs the Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) program to help strengthen parent-child relationships and Creative Journalling groups for Mothers, which introduce simple, creative journaling techniques to support positive mental health and well-being.

Lauren is a Mother of two, who loves reading and spending time in nature. It was her own entry into Motherhood that shifted her focus to supporting parents navigating the perinatal period and beyond.

For in-person support, you can find Lauren at Maternal and Infant Wellbeing Melbourne in Parkville, Victoria. Lauren also provides Australia-wide support via Telehealth.

“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.”

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.

I’m Paula, an Endorsed Midwife and the founder of Pause Postpartum, a private midwifery service supporting families in the early weeks after birth. With extensive experience in pregnancy, birth and postpartum care, I’ve seen how much more confident families feel when they are truly supported, and how this positively impacts their postpartum experience.

Pause Postpartum was created to offer evidence-based, individualised care after birth, promoting an environment where new parents are supported, educated and encouraged through the postpartum period. 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.

We offer home visits for the first six weeks postpartum, as well as online sessions, which are eligible for Medicare rebates. Birth debriefing sessions are also available, grounded in compassion and tailored to what you feel ready to explore, this can be a powerful way to reflect on your birth experience.

Offerings include:

• Postpartum planning sessions and resources
• Postpartum home visits

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.

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.

At Ma Wisdom, we believe intergenerational knowledge is powerful. There’s something deeply meaningful about the kind of wisdom passed down through families, the kind that comes from lived experience and a desire to help.

But while that kind of wisdom is timeless, the world of birth and parenting has changed and many new parents struggle with outdated advice, boundaries being crossed and risk offending grandparents by wanting to do things differently than in their day.

At Ma Wisdom, our tailored workshops are thoughtfully designed with a light-hearted approach to help embrace the exciting transition into grandparenting and to equip grandparents and chosen supporters with essential tools and insights.

By nurturing the innate and accumulated wisdom grandparents already hold, we’ll bring them up to date on what’s changed since they had babies, including newborn safety and the best ways to support new families in the early weeks postpartum. We’ll explore the importance of boundaries – how to set them before the baby arrives and how to navigate them with care and include opportunities to rebuild confidence through a practical skills refresher. We’ll also look at their own transition into grandescence and how this new stage of life can shape their experiences and perspectives.

Led by qualified trainers with over 25 years of combined experience supporting families, we hold TAE accreditation and are qualified, accredited birth and postpartum doulas, as well as certified childbirth and early parenting educators. We are also mothers, grandmothers, aunties, sisters and women with a deep desire to support intergenerational bonds.

Our workshops help grandparents gain valuable knowledge to navigate the vital role they play in a newly emerging family. The right support after having a baby makes all the difference, we’ll help them be just the kind of support you’re looking for.

Open to new and soon-to-be grandparents, great aunts/uncles and anyone else chosen to be a grandparent figure.

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!

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.

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.

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.

As a Mum of 3, Renee brings her own life experience of motherhood, managing the NICU, being a medical mumma and mental health worker to her role as a certified Postpartum doula. Renee will always hold a safe space and offer non judgemental, empathetic care to her clients both in person and virtually.  Support is individually tailored to you and your families needs on the day, every visit is different from the last. Birth preparation, postpartum planning and birth debrief sessions are also available.

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.
