Meet the Doula

My name is Jenna and I am a Birth Doula and Childbirth Educator with a passion for promoting women’s rights in childbirth and protecting the bodily autonomy of birthing people.

I specialise in supporting families that are experiencing anxiety or fear related to pregnancy and birth, and I also teach Childbirth Education with a focus on utilising the Rebozo for comfort measures during labour - providing private classes in the home for those who wish to learn how to use the Rebozo safely.

My area of service for supporting birthing families and teaching childbirth education and rebozo for comfort measures classes ranges from Maryborough to Hervey Bay, QLD.
