My WHY
Hi I am Christie the face behind Birthing Generations. I am blessed to be a wife and mum And happy to call the Central Coast home.
My reason for being a doula is because I have a love for all things pregnancy and birth but also I know that birth can be scary, lonely and sometimes heartbreaking and in those times we need to feel safe, seen and supported.
My goal is to be a calming presence, and provide unwavering compassion and care.
Being a Doula for me is a work of love and a passion for supporting the family unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at birthinggenerations@outlook.com.au if you cannot find an answer to your question.
A birth doula is a non-medically trained emotional and physical support person for you and your partner prenatally, during birth, and postnatally.
No. A midwife is a medical professional, responsible for the medical status and care of Mum and baby. Midwives will focus on the clinical picture and will give medical advice complete medical assessments and can perform tests if required. A doula is non medical, focused on providing continuity and personalised care during labour, birth and into the postpartum. A doula will provide emotional and physical support to Mum and her partner and does not perform any medical tests.
Need one? No BUT you will absolutely benefit from having one. Studies have shown that continuous support from a Doula can improve outcomes for birth and beyond.
Nobody ever regrets having personalised support during their pregnancy birth and postpartum period.
Doulas are passionate about informed choice, education and positive empowering births.
Yes, I want my support to meet your needs. If there is something that you are wanting from doula support please talk with me about your thoughts.
My standard packages require a deposit, with the balance to be paid one week prior to me going on call. Balance can be either in a lump sum or small regular amounts.
I have completed several courses, and will continue to undertake more training. I also have my lived experiences of birthing my children and being a mother for over 26 years.
This is the trainings that I have undertaken to build upon my skills and knowledge as a birth worker.
