The ‘mumabuba way’ is a philosophy that acknowledges and celebrates your uniqueness and individuality.  The birth of a baby is also the birth of a mother, and the experiences we have in our journey to motherhood can have a profound and long-lasting affect on us as individuals, on our babies and on our families as a whole.

I believe that investing in the best support available during this essential time is an investment in the future of your family that you will continue to benefit from and will pass to your next generation.

That’s why I created mumabuba as a Centre of Excellence, to provide you and your baby with the best complementary support there is to help you achieve a positive birth and parenting experience.

My goal is to provide tailored complementary support for you, your partner and your baby through every stage of your journey. I am part of your circle of support to help you prepare for, embrace and enjoy the journey to motherhood.

I work exclusively with women, their partners and babies during fertility, pregnancy and birth – I don’t do anything else, if it’s not pregnancy, birth or breastfeeding related, then I don’t do it!  This means I can dedicate 100% of my effort to making sure you get the best possible care and support available, and you can be confident that you are being looked after by someone with all the best specialist skills and experience to help.

mumabuba is the only dedicated pregnancy and baby wellness centre in Queensland!

Because I support all stages of pregnancy from fertility through to postnatal and also support your baby and breastfeeding, I can provide you with a level of continuity of care that you will not find anywhere else. You might think of me as a one-stop-shop for all of your pregnancy and baby needs!

I understand that your journey to motherhood is unique, so I make sure that all the support I offer is tailored to you as an individual and as your needs change. I call on my skills and experience across multiple therapy modalities, including maternity reflexology, bodywork, craniosacral therapy, acupressure (Shiatsu), massage, yoga and prenatal & perinatal somatic sciences.

I have also developed a range of unique educational classes and courses that can be provided as private or group sessions. These classes and courses provide you with information, knowledge, new skills and techniques that will help guide you through your pregnancy journey in a positive and naturally nurturing way.

This philosophy puts you at the centre of everything I do. When you visit mumabuba for the first time, I invest lots of time getting to know you so that I can understand where you are in your journey, and what support you need to make that journey as wonderful as possible, I want to make sure that you feel heard and respected. This flexible and personalised approach continues with every visit – making sure that every time you visit I adapt the support to meet your changing needs.

You will see that everything I do is a little different. For example, you won’t find a massage couch in my consult room, climbing up onto a narrow, uncomfortable couch isn’t easy when you are pregnant. Instead, I use a purpose made floor mattress and lots of comfy cushions so that you feel completely safe, supported and comfortable, and as an added bonus, you can have your baby laying next to you, or even breastfeeding, while you receive a wonderful combination of bodywork, reflexology and Shiatsu.

That’s just one example of the mumabuba way.
