Birth Planning

Let's meet to discuss all your birthing preferences.  You can ask questions and find out many of the various benefits or risks of choosing one option over another.  You are supported to review your draft birth wishes document so it’s easy to discuss with your medical provider.

You'll feel great making informed decisions

My passion is helping women and their partners become informed about their birth choices, ultimately making decisions that are right for them to feel empowered during the birth process. In addition to hands-on practical tools, I'm here to help you be present for your birth, feeling nurtured, cared for and assisted in every way possible.

Initially sceptical as ‘Doula’ was a new concept to us entirely, we became comfortable and accepted Amanda as our needs were supported rather than simply being told what to do. Amanda was very professional and a great support pre, during and post the birth. She added to our knowledge, was well considered, understanding, available and kept our interests in mind. Having Amanda around helped us successfully navigate this birth and now we have a wonderful healthy baby.

I love my monthly Ka Huna massage with Amanda, it’s like no other massage I’ve had before and relaxes my whole body at one time. As a Beauty Therapist it’s nice to be the one that’s pampered. Amanda supported my fundraising efforts for Liptember, creating awareness around mental health. My regular Ka Huna’s definitely help keep me sane. I feel connected, safe and supported and I can’t wait for her to one day be my Doula.
