I have had the pleasure of working in many Melbourne based hospitals (both public and private) and have supported loads of wonderful women on their life changing path to motherhood. It wasn’t long into my career where my passion became apparent; I adored working with new mama’s; teaching them how to breastfeed their precious squishy babies.

So why did I start Maternal Instincts by Amberley? I absolutely believe the modern woman needs education, evidence-based information and unwavering support in order to shine at breastfeeding.

Stats show while 96% of Australian mama’s initiate breastfeeding, just 39% are still breastfeeding at three months of age. Can you believe that? My belief is that much of this decline is experienced in the crucial first six weeks, when mothers are in most need of professional support, but sadly do not receive it. It is my aspiration to be your trusted Midwife who you can call on to provide the time, vital guidance and unique knowledge specific to my craft that you need.
