I care for mothers during the postpartum period, providing non-medical support. Minimising stress is different with every mother and I like to take the time to debrief with you upon each meeting and prioritise the things that will help you most each visit.

The role includes:

• Taking baby while you sleep or take a break

• Debrief, emotional support and guidance

• Feeding (bottle)

• Visits and Boundaries

• Matrescence and the transition to motherhood

• Preparing nutritious foods and snacks or sourcing meals

• Light house tasks, tidying/laundry

• Providing evidence based info on all things newborn/postpartum

• Connecting you with our personal network of postpartum professionals

• And much, much more!

  
  

Without vital support, rest and healing time, the higher the risk of:

• Postpartum Depletion (the combination of physical/hormonal and emotional depletion that a mother can experience after giving birth) sometimes lasting up to ten years

• Postpartum depression/anxiety

• Conflict in relationships

• Lacking sense of self

• Poor mental health

• Increase in stress/cortisol levels means decrease in oxytocin, essential for breastmilk production and so much more

• Feeling disconnected from baby

“Not only did Kate allow me rest and baby care, she TRULY listened to my heart. I finally felt understood in my needs. We discussed my diet, my postpartum lifestyle (if you can call it that) what I needed more of and most importantly she assisted me to connect with my values, my boundaries around rest and healing and recognise unfair pressures I had put on myself.

I HIGHLY recommend this woman!”
