Me and my birth journey

I am a woman, badass home-birthing mother of 2 boys, sacred birth worker, yoga and pregnancy yoga teacher, mother’s circle facilitator, daughter, sister, friend…! Born in Cape Town, I now live in Bristol, UK.

I have experienced one heavily medicalised and traumatic birth in hospital with my first born Huxley and one EPIC redemptive, empowering, physiological home birth with my second born Billy.

My own personal birthing journey has ignited a burning passion in me to serve women within the birth space and it is my mission to help women remain sovereign and empowered in their births.

I recognise birth as a sacred, life altering event worthy of honouring, safeguarding and celebrating. I believe the shift from Maiden to Mother through birth is a powerful Rite of Passage in desperate need of reclamation, and I walk alongside women to support her through this transformation.

To me, women supporting women isn’t just important, its crucial to the healing of this world.

The Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship

In January 2024 I embarked upon the Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship which took me on a journey to embody being a true space holder and sacred advocate for physiological birth. The mentorship weaved ancient and modern knowledge of Herstory, women's wisdom, physiological birth skills, birth advocacy, medicalised birth knowledge and the art of sacred space holding. I had regular 1:1 mentoring and still have regular birth debriefs to help me become the clear channel and best space holder I can be.

I am now entering the world of birth work (Autumn 2024) and am ready mind, body and soul to begin sharing my offerings with women. I recognise that I am still learning and growing and for the foreseeable will be offering my services at a heavily reduced fee. I will increase my fees incrementally as I feel is fair value.

Working with me

When you work with me, you will approach your birth feeling fully informed, prepared, loved, safe, and ready for the wild ride that is birth. I also teach you how to prepare for a deeply healing and nourishing postpartum. I will walk alongside you and your family in any birth setting - home, birth centre or hospital.

I am trained in birth advocacy and well versed in your legal rights within the birth space. I have the knowledge and tenacity to assist you in navigating our healthcare system and can offer you tools and resources for you to use to also feel confident in advocating for yourself.

I have access to a vast amount of evidence-based research I can share with you, so you can make truly informed decisions.

I will ensure there is always informed consent when it comes to the offering of any procedures or interventions that may disturb your empowering birth experience.

What else?

I love music, festivals, bare foot dancing outside, cold water swimming, climbing mountains, camping, singing, drinking wine with girlfriends, sitting in circle with women, delicious food, running wildly and freely, adventures, colourful clothes…to name a few. Time at home with my family is sacred to me and I am at my happiest spending slow mornings with my boys drinking coffee and getting stuck into hard core play time.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you.
