EMPOWERING YOU TO BIRTH YOUR WAY

ARE YOU PLANNING A FAMILY?

I am passionate about providing a matrescentric style of Midwifery support. I consider it a privilege to be able to provide care for you and your family to navigate this transformatIONAL time. 

Hi. I’m Shannon.

Recognising that Matrescence is the very process of becoming a mother, I have become passionate about providing a matrescentric style of Midwifery support.

In this way I can assist new parents in developing an understanding of the rite of passage to come and the most optimal way they can be supported.

I am a private midwife in the Northern Rivers Region and based in Lennox Head.

I service the areas of Byron, Ballina shire and Lismore personally and provide telehealth services wherever required in Australia.
