Here to support you through the milk, the mess and the magic that is postpartum.
I offer meaningful postpartum care for mothers wanting support through those tender early weeks after birth, where everything shifts. I'm here to help ease your transition into motherhood and bring the focus back to you, the mother - with in-home postpartum doula support, servicing the Sutherland Shire and surrounding areas. ​
The wild ride into motherhood
Those early weeks after birth are full of change! Not just for your baby, but for you, too. As you learn to love & care for this new little person, you're also finding your way into a new version of yourself. Some moments will feel magical. Others will feel messy. And often, both at the same time. Around the world, in traditional cultures this time is honoured as sacred "The Golden Month", with a village of support wrapped around the mother so she can rest, heal, and ease into this new chapter.​ In our modern lifestyle, the village may look different, but its importance stays the same.​​
every mother deserves a village
“After birth there’s a sacred window of time. A time for complete rejuvenation of a woman’s physical, mental and spiritual health. A time for deep, extended bonding with her newborn. The first 42 days after birth set the stage for her next 42 years.”​​
"Heng Ou"
Each time we become a mother, we grow.
Whether it’s your first or fifth baby, every transition into motherhood is wildly different and differently wild. I offer in-home postpartum support that prioritises the mother's emotional wellbeing.
Each day of postpartum will look different and your wants and needs will change. I’m here to meet you where you’re at - with whatever makes that day feel a little easier, your load a little lighter, and your bonding time a little longer.
A BIT ABOUT ME...
Hey, I’m Faye, 37, a trained postpartum doula, wife to Joel, and mother to Luna (6) and Thea (3). Originally from London, I’ve called Sydney home for the past 14 years. My husband and I have raised our two daughters far from our families, so I truly understand how important it is to build your own village and to surround yourself with the people who help you thrive!​
​
The birth of my first daughter in 2018 sparked something deep in me. Life changed, my priorities shifted and my passion for supporting other mums through this journey began.
I’m honestly thrilled that the importance of the “fourth trimester” is finally being spoken about, alongside research showing the powerful impact support can have on a mother’s journey.
​
​The difference between surviving and thriving in those early weeks isn’t about luck....it’s about feeling empowered by those around you. I want to help bring back the village - offering parents a softer landing in this magical phase of life.

"Faye changed my journey to motherhood and made me the mama I am today. Her compassionate, calm and knowledgable approach gave me comfort at a time when I needed it most. Her support brought me confidence as a mum and reduced anxiety. No question was too silly. She is a baby whisperer with a real passion for what she does. I couldn't recommend her more"

"So lucky to have had Faye's warm and gentle support with both of my babies. Navigating my postpartum plan with my first felt overwhelming - Faye simplified it and gave me the best ideas on how to make it as smooth as possible"
