Contact Barbara

Hi, I'm Barbara.

I'm qualified as a midwife and more, but I'm at my best supporting parents to navigate from early pregnancy through to the first few months of raising a newborn so that they feel informed, supported and prepared.

My Aim as Your Midwife

My goal is to accompany you on the incredible journey of childbirth, ensuring that every woman feels respected, and cherished every step of the way. Inspired by the joy of bringing new life into the world, I aim to create a warm space for you during this time.

A Little More About Me

Outside of my professional life, I find joy as a wife to Carl and a mother to three beautiful children. I love the natural beauty of this stunning region and keeping active in my surrounds with things like mountain biking with the family, beach walks and swims, and I also love to cook and bake for my family (and to feed my soul).

I'm originally from Germany but this region is now my home in the stunning landscape of the South West of WA.
