Since having my first child at 23 I have always had an interest in supporting others through the journey of pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. As an adult, I studied permaculture and sustainability and have worked in both Australia and the UK in community engagement roles supporting groups to work towards environmental responsibility and community cohesion. I have practised yoga in various forms for 10 years and discovered Birthlight during my second pregnancy.

I attended the Birthlight pregnancy yoga and active birthing workshops and then the baby yoga classes. I was so inspired by the ethos of Birthlight and the positive effect it had on my whole family through this journey. I now teach Birthlight classes in Pregnancy Yoga, Nurturing Baby Massage, Mother and Baby Yoga and Parent and Toddler Yoga. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy working as a childminder and a Postnatal Doula.

In my spare time (ha!) I love to spend as much time as possible with my gorgeous family, do various crafty things, practice yoga and work on my allotment.
