Taku Kōrero, Taku Mahi:

I’m a māmā to five spirited tamariki—each one teaching me, in their own way, how to be kinder, stronger, and more present in this world. I am a midwife based in Dallington, Ōtautahi Christchurch— the East is where I’ve spent most of my life and where my roots run deep.
I am proud to be part of Ōhua Midwives, a kaupapa Māori midwifery practice grounded in connection, care, and cultural strength. Uplifting and reviving our Māori birthing traditions within the birth space is not only a priority but also our purpose. I believe hapūtanga is one of life’s greatest journeys and blessings. My practice is holistic by nature, and I’m passionate about supporting whānau to make informed, empowered choices. As your midwife, my role is to walk alongside you—to share the options available, whether this is your first, second, third, fifth, or tenth pēpi. I offer personalised care and will always meet you exactly where you are.
