What is a Midwife?

According to the King Edward Memorial Hospital in Subiaco a Midwife is someone:

who has acquired the appropriate qualifications to be registered and licensed to practice midwifery
who gives supervision, care and advice to women during pregnancy, labour, birth and during the postnatal period
who cares for the newborn infant
who is trained in the birthing process and will deal capably with any adverse situations, including seeking medical assistance when required
who will commence emergency procedures in the absence of medical help
who educates and provides health counseling for the woman, family and community

Why invest in a Midwife/Personal Trainer?

Personal Trainers are great in motivating you to achieve your health and fitness goals and to help you get into shape. However, by having a Midwife/Personal Trainer you can be assured that you are receiving evidence based care and expert advice during the entirety of your child bearing phase. Who better qualified is there to help you to:

get into the healthiest condition ready for conception?
get into the fittest state ready for the marathon of labour or the recovery of a Caesarean?
get you back to your pre-pregnancy weight and beyond?

The easy and wisest choice is a Midwife/Personal Trainer.

My Personal Mission....

"To ensure that Australian women are receiving safe, evidence based exercise advice from fitness professionals that are fully accredited to give instruction during the most fragile and vulnerable periods of a woman's life."

I fully appreciated the emotional and physical strain that attempting to achieve conception can have on your body, mind and personal relationships. I am here to support you mentally, emotionally and physically whilst you focus on achieving your most healthiest state possible.

I guarantee that your and your unborn child will not be put at risk during any exercise session. I can collaborate with your Private Midwife or Obstetrician at your request so that an exercise program can be specifically tailored to you and your pregnancy.

Postnatally I ensure you that I will bring out the warrior in you! Any Midwife can vouch for this.....if I can coach you during an exhausting and long labour then I can get you to do at least one more set of crunches or push ups in our workouts together!! Our postnatal group sessions are full of wonderful and inspiring women taking "timeout" for themselves to train in order to fill up the wife, mother, housekeeper and lover tank.
