I find it an honour to bring my personalised warmth and tenderness to families to support them to have a safe & empowering journey that is their own. I birthed both my children, Sylvie and Vinnie, at home. These experiences deepened my passion for homebirth and the benefits of having a trusted care provider and being in control of the temperature, noise, people present and everything within my environment free from time restraints. I offer placenta encapsulation services."

Emma Ryder "I consider my role as a midwife to be a great honour and I endeavour to form trusting and respectful relationships with the women i journey with through childbirth. My midwifery relationship with a woman comes from an equal sharing of insights and knowledge and follows a path of negotiation and bonding. As a midwife i uphold the fundamental rights of women to birth their babies in a safe environment of their choosing within a care model that encompasses a woman-centred philosophy coupled with collaboration with multi-disciplinary health care teams".
