I was inspired to become a midwife after the most amazing experiences having my own babies. My first two children were born in a tertiary hospital with fractured, inconsistent care. My third and fourth children were born in a Birthing Centre under the care of known midwives and the difference in care was like night and day. I had always had an interest in pregnancy and birth and loved all things baby, but it was the outstanding care I received from those midwives at the Birth Centre that really solidified what I wanted to do.

I have been a midwife for 15 years, with 12 of those years working in a large hospital Caseload Model of Care, providing public funded Homebirth. This is where my passion lies, in working alongside women to achieve the birth they know their bodies are built to do.

I learned quickly that Midwifery is not simply all about babies but is about the relationship and trust that is nurtured and grown with the woman during her pregnancy. I feel such privilege to bear witness to a woman’s passage to motherhood and assisting her in tapping into her innate birthing wisdom.

I am committed to offering respectful, evidence-based and excellent care that enables women to make fully informed choices and experience the best possible outcomes.

When I began my journey to becoming a midwife, it was always my long-held desire and intention to work independently and truly experience the autonomy that it provides and to work fully in partnership with women. I am thrilled to be exactly where I always wanted to be.
