Originally from Adelaide, I moved to Cairns in 2017 in the pursuit of a midwifery graduate year. The year went well and I stayed on and moved in to MGP. After my daughter was born in 2023 I couldn't see how returning to the hospital was going to work for our family or how I wanted to support women. I had already completed my endorsement and so I jumped into the world of private midwifery and homebirth. I was blessed with a welcoming community and wise women mentors. After nine years in Cairns we returned to Adelaide in 2026, seven weeks after the homebirth of my son.
For fun I like lifting heavy things, reading, walking, tinkering with herbs and starting (occasionally finishing) new craft projects. I am an absolute nerd who never wants to stop learning and, if you were to ask, I would probably have 1-2 professional trainings on the go and a list of others I want to do when I have the time.
I started midwifery in 2012 with no clear plan, just the idea of getting a degree in something health-related. I realise now I was being called to it because I am without a doubt made to work with women.
Most of my career has been spent providing continuity of care, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. Community birth has always held my heart, and being invited into the birth space remains one of the greatest honours of my life. I am extremely passionate about holistic postpartum care and supporting women to thrive after becoming mothers. My desire in business is to slowly expand into providing full continuum holistic women's health care.
I believe pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are rites of passage with profound physiological wisdom. I respect the innate capability of women’s bodies and the intricate connection between mother and baby.
My clinical care is rooted in the understanding that the experiences of mothers and babies carry lasting generational impact. What happens in this window of time echoes far beyond the moment itself.
I believe my role as a midwife is to share clear unbiased information, provide emotional and physical support, have patience, employ watchful waiting and to respond with wisdom when it is truly needed. Not by default. I commit myself to lifelong learning through reflection, evidence based information, lived experience and the wise women that have come before me.
I believe wholeheartedly in the strength of midwifery continuity of care. Knowing you intimately; your rhythm, your values, your story. I don’t subscribe to “high risk” and “low risk” labels. Health is a nuanced, multifaceted, individual experience that can’t be divided into two columns. You are capable of assessing your own risk and making your own decisions about your own body.
