Hello, I’m Brin

Registered Midwife. Nurse. Calmbirth Educator. Mumma of one cute baby girl.

I became a Calmbirth Educator because I am fiercely passionate about supporting women and their partners or birth supporters to feel informed, calm, confident, capable and genuinely prepared for birth (yes, even the unpredictable bits).

As a mum, I understand that pregnancy, birth and early parenthood can feel exciting, scary, overwhelming and magical — sometimes all at the same time.

My goal as a Calmbirth Educator is to help you replace any worries or fears with knowledge, trust, confidence and practical tools – such as breathing techniques, relaxation, visualisation, massage & acupressure techniques and loving support —  all of which work in harmony with the body’s natural hormones to support birth.

My Calmbirth® courses offer a welcoming, inclusive and supportive space for you and your partner/birth supporters to slow down, tune inward, build confidence together, feel held and nurtured in your unique journey – with hopefully lots of questions answered and a few laughs along the way.

Fun facts about me:

• I am an IVF child to two amazing mums, so I love and respect all types of families
• I used to think the hardest thing I ever did was hike Kokoda Trail… until I became a mum.
• I am a country girl at heart and in my spare time (which is scarce these days) I enjoy yoga, hiking, scuba-diving, horse riding and occasionally riding motorbikes… badly.
• I still get super excited and proud when I see women birth their babies, as every birth is unique beautiful and gives me all the feels.

I firmly believe with the right knowledge, confidence builds — and it’s calm & confidence that changes birth experiences.

I can’t wait to help you to have the best experience, no matter where or how birth unfolds.
