EAST LONDON MIDWIFE

Hi, welcome to my website!

​

We all play various roles in our lives. The two greatest ones that fill me up and teach me so much every day are being a mum and being a midwife. Becoming mum for the first time in 2002 set me off on a path of calm midwifery. Since then I have supported hundreds of families on their journey through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and breastfeeding. I have worked with women from all walks of life and in all settings including labour ward, birth centre and homebirth...

​

My mission to empower women and provide gentle holistic care led me to train in various complementary therapies including Hypnobirthing (2013), Mizan Therapy (2016), Aromatherapy (2018), Herbalism (2020) and Craniosacral Therapy (2022). I am currently in the 3rd year of Homeopathy Practitioner course.

​​​

I first trained as La Leche League peer supporter in 2005 when expecting my second daughter. My passion for breastfeeding grew over the years and through my own not always easy breastfeeding journeys. In 2018 I completed a year long course on breastfeeding with Indira Lopez-Bassols and passed the International Board of Lactation Consultants Exam in 2019 becoming IBCLC.

​

I am passionate about choice and informed consent, equality and individualised care. ​My aim is to support women in achieving positive birth and breastfeeding experiences, to empower them and to aid them on their healing journeys at all stages of a woman's life.

​

I have four amazing children - two girls and two boys, two of them born at home, all of them breastfed for 2+ years, all of them homeeducated and yet each of them very different, making our lives full of adventure :) 

When I am not working I love to read, crochet or knit.
