Nourishing your transition into motherhood
Offering postpartum doula care support and mothers’ blessings for first time mothers in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, lower north shore and Inner city
Holistic postpartum doula, pregnancy support and Mothers’ Blessings in Sydney
Helping pregnant and new mothers feel deeply cared for and nourished during one of life’s most tender and precious times.
Why Postpartum Care Matters
The care a mother receives in the weeks and months after birth matters. Rest, nourishment, and support during postpartum shape how a woman recovers, how she feels in her body, and how she moves forward into motherhood.
Many traditions teach that the first 40 days after birth set the foundation for the next 40 years. This is a time for healing, replenishment, and being cared for—not rushing or doing it all alone. I’m here to support you as you rest, recover, and find your footing in this new season.

About Hats
I'm a postpartum doula, pregnancy and motherhood mentor and the mum of two little boys, living in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. When I had my first baby and learnt of the beautiful postpartum care that so many cultures around the world provide, it lit a fire in me to bring that care and nourishment to new mums in my community.
My passion is learning and sharing the sacred knowledge around birth and the practices used to nurse a new mother (or birthing person) back to strength. I understand how deeply motherhood can reshape your sense of self, and the need to be gently held through this transformation.
Pink Flamingo Postpartum Care & Wellbeing was named after the mother flamingo, who often loses her pink colour after giving birth. With time and nourishment, her vibrant colour returns.
In the same way, my work is about caring for you, so you can feel replenished, grounded, and supported to regain your vibrancy as you move through the early months of motherhood. Read more about this on the blog.
What clients are saying…
“Having Hats as my postpartum doula felt truly invaluable. She nourished me deeply, both through food and the thoughtful care she brought into our home. Her calm confidence, practical wisdom and ability to truly listen made such a difference as I found my feet in motherhood. It felt like being supported by a wise friend.”

“I felt completely held and supported during my postpartum visit with Hats. From nourishing meals and thoughtful conversations to a relaxing foot bath and massage, every part of the experience was intentional, calming and deeply caring. A well cared for mum truly means a well cared for baby and family.”
— Pei Li - Postpartum Care for second-time mum
“My Mother’s Blessing with Hats was nothing short of magical. The space felt warm, nurturing and intentionally created, with every detail infused with love. I felt completely seen, held and celebrated as I step into motherhood. Hats has a beautiful gift for creating safe, soulful spaces that honour women so deeply.”
— Maddy, first-time mum-to-be
Inclusive Services
While I use the term ‘mother’ predominently through my website, I am referring to all birthing people. I love caring for queer families, people from different cultural backgrounds and people living with a disability. If you are interested in my services, but the cost feels prohibitive for your family, please reach out to see if we can find a way to give you the care that you deserve.
