I am a wife and a mother of two young boys, Oscar and Louie. I am a Registered Nurse & Midwife and Registered Calmbirth® Educator teaching on the Mornington Peninsula, VIC.
For more than 10 years, I’ve worked as a midwife across all areas of maternity at a large tertiary hospital in Melbourne. As a midwife and mother, I understand the intensity, unpredictability and life-changing nature of labour and birth — and how important quality antenatal education is in preparing for it.
As a midwife caring for couples who had completed the Calmbirth® program, I was continually inspired by how informed, calm, and empowered they felt throughout their birth experiences, regardless of how their journey unfolded.
When I became pregnant with my first child, my husband and I completed the Calmbirth® program ourselves. We left feeling informed, confident, and supported. My husband gained practical tools and clarity around his role during labour, which eased many of his fears — and mine. It also allowed me to step out of my “midwife brain,” trust the process, and surrender to the experience.
We went on to have a calm and empowering birth experience. Yes, it was intense and hard work, but with the right support, tools, and environment, I felt safe, calm, and capable. After that experience, I knew I wanted to help other women and couples feel the same confidence and empowerment going into birth.
My goal is to help women approach labour and birth feeling empowered, supported, and excited rather than fearful. I want women to trust in their bodies, feel confident in their choices, and have a positive and empowering birth experience — however their journey unfolds.
