Born & raised in Tauranga, I moved home in 2025 to raise my own family here. I’m māmā to a little girl & baby boy, born at home earlier this year. I’ve been a midwife for over 7 years — in the Bay of Islands, Hawkes Bay and BOP. My experience has given me a deep respect for natural birth and what becomes possible when we trust it.

Home Birth is where my heart is: supporting māmā to birth in the comfort, freedom & familiarity of their own home. There’s something profoundly special about babies being born in the first place they’ll call home, surrounded by those who matter most.

It’s important to me that everyone leaves our appointments feeling truly informed, with a clear understanding of their options and the confidence to make the choices that are right for them & their whānau.

Being trusted to support families through one of life’s most significant moments is something I’ll never take for granted. Every birth is unique & it’s an honour to walk alongside each whānau as they write their own story.

NOTE: I reserve my care for those planning to birth at home or at Bethlehem Birth Centre. But if a hospital birth becomes medically necessary, I will of course continue to support you throughout.
