Leah Sizeland
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

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.

These conditions can be painful and distressing and may impact your feeding journey.

The Pillars Naturopathy
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.

Midwife Lauretta
Hi, I’m Lauretta — Midwife, Birth educator, Acuneedling Midwife, Bodyworker and Mum, based in Ballarat and working online. I created this space because too many women walk into birth feeling unsure, unheard, or like they just have to “go with the flow.” You deserve clear information, practical tools, and genuine support — without judgement — so you can feel confident taking charge of your birth.
What I do:
I teach Your Birth Class — available in person or online — where you’ll learn birth skills (breathwork, movement, touch tools like massage, counter pressure and acupressure, optimal positioning, and advocacy) alongside the knowledge to understand what’s happening in your body. It’s more than just learning about the stages of labour — it’s about knowing how to work with it all, however your birth unfolds.
I also offer Acuneedling & Bodywork — gentle treatments that can support pregnancy symptoms and discomforts at any stage, as well as help with birth preparation, optimal positioning, and recovery postpartum. Internal Pelvic Release — a gentle, hands-on therapy that works with the soft tissues of the pelvis. This can help release stored tension, support birth preparation, ease pelvic pain, and provide connection to your pelvic space (+ a whole heap of education).
If you love real, evidence-based conversations, tune into my podcast The Midwife Memos — warm, honest chats and stories about pregnancy, birth and postpartum that help you feel informed (and less alone). Who I’m for: first-time mums who want to feel prepared and in charge, second-time mums ready for a different experience after a tough first birth, and partners who want to feel useful and confident — not helpless on the sidelines.
My approach is simple: practical skills + mindset support + informed choice. I’ll support you to feel clear and confident about your options, so you can birth in the way that feels right for you. You don’t need to “go with the flow” — you get to birth your way.
If that’s what you’re looking for, I’d love to help.

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.

Grief Guide
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.

Her extensive experience spans oncology, palliative care, perinatal support, family changes, and supporting those affected by sudden and traumatic losses.

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.

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.

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!

Untangled Living
About Untangled Living
I’m Ebony, the founder of Untangled Living and a mother supporting mothers. I combine my professional skills with my own lived experience to offer care that’s both practical and deeply understanding. My approach is grounded in genuine empathy, a shared sense of “I get it,” and creating a safe, welcoming space where women feel truly seen, heard, and cared for.
I offer trauma-informed care and hands-on support for women at every stage of the motherhood journey from conception through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond. I understand that every family’s story is unique, and that recovery and growth don’t follow a neat timeline.
I am a qualified birth and postpartum doula and myotherapist, with specialised training in pre- and postnatal massage, scar therapy, and lymphatic drainage. I have also completed training in the Body Ready Method®, a functional movement approach designed to prepare the body for birth and support a smoother, more complete recovery postpartum. I hold a Diploma of Nutrition specialising in women’s health through all stages of motherhood, preparing for pregnancy, staying well during pregnancy, recovering after birth, and restoring balance from the depletion often experienced in motherhood. I am currently completing a Bachelor of Nursing, specialising in women’s health.
My services are designed to meet you exactly where you are:
- Pregnancy support – massage, education, and personalised resources to ease discomfort, reduce anxiety, and prepare your body and mind for birth.
- Birth preparation – tailored sessions that help you feel informed, confident, and empowered for whatever path your birth may take, including cesarean preparation.
- Postpartum care – hands-on healing for body and mind, scar therapy, lymphatic support, and recovery plans that honour your emotional and physical wellbeing.
- Support beyond the first year – guidance for mothers navigating toddlerhood, returning to work, hormonal changes, body image, burnout, and the ongoing balancing act of motherhood.
Motherhood can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Whether I’m easing physical tension, creating a recovery plan, or simply holding space for your story, my goal is to walk alongside you, helping you untangle the challenges, celebrate milestones, and feel anchored in your own strength.
Together, we can create space for your recovery, your growth, and the version of motherhood you want to live.

Sage Nest
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.
