About

Congratulations, you’ve just brought a new life into the world.

We welcome your new baby into this world with open arms. And while everyone wants to hold and see the baby, I’m here to hold you.

Hi, I’m Johanna. A trained Postpartum Doula on the Sunshine Coast. I hold space for New Born Mothers. After being a massage therapist for 14years I traveled to India to study the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda. After learning a little about how Ayurveda takes care of women and families before during and after birth it inspired me to learn more, on returning home I studied an Ayurvedic Doula course. This brought together all my passions and inline with my own values. (That was now 8years ago)

As a mother of two gorgeous grown young women, I appreciate the knowledge I learned from my own Mother and Grandmother during my postpartum days, I was very fortunate to have support from both sides of my family and I realise that not all Women have this experience. I want to enable Mothers’ on the Sunshine Coast to choose to have this experience of support in their Postpartum days.

The journey into motherhood can be far greater and more challenging than childbirth itself. Unlike a midwife, a Doula is not medically trained but trained in supporting Mum and the family. Holding space, sharing knowledge and supporting everyone on this beautiful new journey.

As the Mother, you are the most important person. Your love is what your new child needs but your journey into this new world can often be a challenge to navigate. Whether you’ve done this all before or it’s your first time, this is an unknown time. It doesn’t matter how many books you read, or words of wisdom your friends before you share, motherhood is hard. And so, I am here for you.

be nourished and nurtured into motherhood
