I have been working as a Midwife for 24 years and have worked in the Wodonga Maternity Unit for the past 19. I have also worked with clients in the community for over 16 years teaching childbirth education through calmbirth classes and private consultations.

I am committed to helping others learn how to approach birth with confidence and positivity. There is nothing more amazing than a calm and gentle birth and the joy that such a rich, bonding experience brings for the mother, her baby, partner and family.

My passion is to encourage mothers to surrender to the process of their labour and birth no matter how it unfolds. If for some reason intervention is needed, couples can use their skills to meet any challenge they encounter. The more empowered and confident women and her support team feel, the less fear and anxiety there will be.

I am a Registered member of CAPEA (Childbirth and Parenting Educators in Australia), ACMI (Australian College of Midwives), Maternity Coalition and International Institute for Complementary Therapists and am proud to say I am now Endorsed as a Private Midwife.
