Private Consultations + Childbirth Education —

A calm, dedicated session for your needs, to explore your options, ask questions, and prepare for birth in a way that feels right for you.

Personalised and in-depth support to prepare you for birth —

Every pregnancy and birth experience is unique, which is why private consultations are designed with flexibility in mind, offering you the time, space, and personalised guidance to prepare for birth in a way that feels right for you.

Held in a calm and comfortable environment, each session is thoughtfully prepared and can be tailored to your individual needs — whether that’s seeking reassurance, exploring your options, or navigating a more complex pregnancy or birth plan.

This is a space to slow down, ask questions, and prepare with confidence, supported by care that is both considered and responsive to you.

*Please note, this is not a registered calmbirth® class and therefore the content differs.


Dedicated time for you, tailored to your needs —


Each consultation is a dedicated 3-hour session, allowing us to take the time to explore your circumstances in detail. Together, we’ll work through what matters most to you — answering questions, discussing preferences, and helping you feel more prepared and supported. Of course, sharing lots of practical education and tips to support you in birth as well!

A more personal approach —


Unlike group classes, these sessions are entirely focused on you. There’s flexibility to explore your specific concerns, to go at your own pace, and receive guidance that reflects your individual circumstances.

The aim is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident as you move toward your birth experience.
Please see below a list of commonly asked questions that may be helpful —

  • Private consultations are particularly suited to those who would benefit from more personalised support, including pregnant women and their support person who are:

    — Planning a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean)

    — Expecting twins or multiples

    — Preparing for a scheduled caesarean birth

    — Navigating specific medical considerations

    — Seeking a more tailored approach to birth preparation.

  • Each private consultation is a dedicated three-hour session that can be tailored to your needs. The fee is $350 per couple, with rebates available through most private health funds.

  • Sessions are offered at a mutually convenient time, typically on weekdays during the day or in the evening, however weekends can be accommodated in advance.

    I am also available for remote sessions via Zoom.

  • Each session is tailored to your individual needs, however I will generally explore topics such as understanding labour, the role of your support person, when to come to hospital, and positioning for labour and birth.

    We also cover both medicated and non-medicated pain relief options, preparing for alternative birth pathways, breastfeeding, and developing your birth preferences.

    These sessions are flexible and personalised, allowing us to focus on what matters most to you and preparing for your birth.

    Please consider that private consultations are not a registered calmbirth® class.

  • The ideal time for a private consultation is between 26 and 34 weeks of pregnancy, however you’re most welcome to attend earlier or later depending on your needs.

  • Private consultations are designed with flexibility in mind and can be tailored to your individual circumstances. I support women and couples across a wide range of experiences, including subsequent births, VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean), twin pregnancies, and same-sex couples.

    I also offer sessions for those preparing for birth following a previous difficult or traumatic experience, ensuring you feel supported, informed, and confident as you approach this next stage.

If this feels like the right fit for you, I’d love to support you.
