Hi, I’m Kate — a Birth Keeper and Placenta Specialist based in the Gold Coast Hinterland. I’ve been walking alongside families for over a decade, holding space for sacred, physiological birth and honouring it as a powerful rite of passage.
I support families choosing to birth at home, offering calm, grounded presence, intuitive guidance, and practical care. My services include holistic birth support, postpartum nurturing rooted in traditional practices, placenta encapsulation, and birth pool hire. My philosophy is that birth is innate, and with the right support, women can lean deeply into their own wisdom.
I offer safe, gentle placenta encapsulation to support your postpartum recovery and wellbeing. I treat the encapsulation process as a sacred ritual — your placenta will be revered and honoured for its incredible work growing and nurturing your baby, and once encapsulated, you. Every placenta is handled with the utmost care and respect, with timely collection and return, so you can focus on rest, bonding, and healing.
I also provide beautiful, high-quality Earthy Birth Pool hire for families planning homebirth. Each pool is thoroughly cleaned, sanitised, and comes with everything needed for a calm and supported water birth.
