Unlike my fellow ‘Australian Doula’ friends I am not yet a mother!  I have however supported a friend and her husband throughout their pregnancy & birth experience and found it to be an amazingly rewarding and beautiful journey.

Since I was young I’ve loved all things to do with babies, as I’ve gotten older my love has grown and I want to turn my passion into supporting and caring for women and their partners in the most exciting journey they will ever encounter.

I am currently studying to be a registered nurse and then furthering my studies to become a midwife.

As your doula I offer to find the answers to any questions you may have concerning your pregnancy or birth, to listen to your worries and calm your fears, to massage away your aches and be with you and your partner through the pains.  I will help you both prepare a birth plan & support you both throughout the birth. 

I will be where ever you feel most comfortable having me
– I’ll be there for you both and your new baby!!

What Client’s had to say about Kirsten:

Kirsten encouraged me to have faith in myself and with her encouragement I was able to feel confident in striving for a natural birth.  I liked the fact that Kirsten had not experienced labour herself as I was overwhelmed with birthing stories from family and friends who had experienced childbirth and wanted to enjoy my own experience without too many preconceived ideas.

We really enjoyed sharing our journey with Kirsten.  She is a very real and caring person and I would recommend her to be a part of your journey.
