honouring birth as
emotional and spiritual
(as well as physical)
No matter where you are birthing, no matter what style of birth… and no matter who your medical care providers are… we are an additional layer of educational and emotional support, available to you!
We are passionate about pregnancy, birth and mumming being as joyful and emotionally supported as possible.
We run our services from a big, shared community building named Pachamama House (meaning “Mother Earth”).
We have our large, main room, plus, we have access to a large yoga room, large meeting room, outdoor courtyard, kitchen, bathrooms etc
We have an extra room that we have filled with loving donations (maternity, baby, breastfeeding) and use as our pre-loved, fundraising room! When you purchase from us, your donated amount goes directly to our rent and funds our service.
Enjoy preloved shopping and help reduce your ecological footprint.
Complimentary Services Include: Birth Doula Q&A, birth planning support, birth decision chats; birth debriefs; and many other supports too.
How we work:
Our events, circles and other services are run by professional volunteers (volunteer spots always open).
Our preloved is run by mum volunteers (volunteer spots always welcome to all).
Our energy comes from our passion for womens’ health.
And our funding is all self funding and fund raising.
Our volunteers and friends include: birth doulas; midwives; birth educators; yoga teachers; counsellors; natural health experts; massage therapists; and a variety of other pregnancy and family professionals and specialists.
PLUS, donate to enrol in our not-for-profit workshops and courses – and by doing so – help us cover our costs (eg we even offer Hypnobirthing not-for-profit).

I loved connecting with the community, sharing stories, gaining insightful information and feeling empowered in my choices around pregnancy and birth. The friendships I made were strong and they continue to flourish to this day”.

“Relaxed meetings with great facilitation which makes everyone attending feel welcome and supported, including partners. In the meetings I’ve been to, the discussions have been informative and positive. Mothers and partners can share their experiences with the group if they like, and others can benefit”.
