I met Virginia during the third trimester of my pregnancy, and I couldn't have asked for a better person to be my doula. From the very beginning, she empowered me and gave me the strength, confidence, and focus I needed for my labor journey. Her support before, during, and after the birth made an incredible difference. I am truly thankful and deeply grateful for everything she did for me. Less

Working with Virginia has been an absolute gift. I came to her for support for sexual trauma healing - and the wise womban sessions (yoni steam, mizan therapy massage, holistic pelvic care) have been transformative. Virginia even came to my home to perform a grief ritual with the use of my bathtub and it was a very significant experience for me. The flower essences tinctures keep me connected to our work together through sessions and I have learned so much about myself/my womanhood through the space she holds. I feel safe, held and expanded through this delicate work. Thank you for all you do Virginia!!!!! Less

Thank you Virginia for bringing warmth, experience, and humour to our pregnancy, birth and post partum journey.Your knowledge that you shared with us during pregnancy, including the spinning babies techniques, helped me and my husband feel prepared and ready for the up coming birth.I enjoyed a Holistic Pregnancy Bodywork session in late pregnancy, this helped me physically and also emotionally, releasing any fear that I was holding onto about birth.During labour and birth it was your calm, nurturing presence, gently overseeing the situation that helped me feel safe and at ease. Knowing that you were there supporting Scott and I gave me great confidence.Your check in during those early days post partum was much appreciated. It was a lovely way to debrief and close a special chapter of our lives and as we begin a new chapter as a family of three.Thank you Virginia, so much for your care and expertise. I highly recommend Virginia if you are looking for a doula to support you through your pregnancy journey. Less

Virginia was amazing throughout my entire pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. From the start, her knowledge and experience made us feel so prepared and confident. She made me a raspberry leaf tincture, and the pregnancy bodywork session with her was fantastic! She also taught us Spinning Babies techniques, which we used leading up to the birth and found super helpful.Her advice and emotional support were exactly what we needed, and her calm made everything feel much easier. We’re so grateful for everything she did and can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for caring, personalised support through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Less

Virginia supported myself, my partner and our first baby from third trimester through to post birth as our doula. Her wisdom, skills, education, presence and empowerment helped me feel more confident in my knowledge, decision making, experience and contributed significantly to the choice and control I had from pregnancy to birth and the overall positive experience. I especially appreciated her presence and skills during labour which was a very new and intense experience, both at home and the planned hospital birth. I also always felt her care, kindness, passion and time for me and the female birthing experience. I would highly recommend her services for your personal doula experience and wishes and am so grateful for her support. Less

After having an extremely tough and long labour with my posterior first baby (planned homebirth, transfer to hospital resulting in traumatic birth), I wanted to give my second baby the best chance at getting into an anterior position for hopefully a smoother birth at home.This baby was also posterior throughout my whole pregnancy so I booked in to see Virginia at 39 weeks pregnant. I loved that the session was so long (2.5hrs) and didn’t feel rushed. I felt like my baby was given the best opportunity to turn if that’s what needed to happen. Although he remained posterior at the end of the session, Virginia sent me home with so many tools and techniques to try both before and during labour. Some of the techniques I’d tried before, but had taught myself. Having Virginia give me hands on instructions made such a huge difference. She also gave me advice on what techniques to use and how often if baby remained posterior in labour. This gave me suuuuch a huge peace of mind heading towards birth.After practicing the techniques over the next week my baby would turn in and out of an anterior position. This again gave me huge peace of mind that my baby could readily move into an anterior position.I’m certain my baby turned into an anterior position at the beginning of labour and I experienced an amazing 6hr labour and birth of our beautiful boy at home 🥰I’d definitely recommend seeing Virginia if you’re wanting to equip yourself with some techniques and tools to take into your labour!(Also, totally aware the posterior birth is a variation of normal and doesn’t always present as an issue for lots of women ❤️) Less

Virginia is a wonderful practitioner who we are so grateful to have in our team. Her wise and ethical approach to health issue provides profound insights and shifts. Her herbal potions are right on point and have been very effective for me and my family. She is also the most incredible sound healer... Gifted.Thank you for your work.We love you Virginia!! Less

After having 2 Cesearen sections I really wanted to try for a physiological birth. I was recommended to get a doula by a friend and I found Virginia at 33 weeks pregnant and after one phone call I immediately knew I was going to have a completely different birthing experience. I saw Virginia multiple times leading up to my due date. She helped me get into the right mindset, was a wealth of knowledge, helped Bub get into the right position and just helped my body do what its made to do. She supported me and advocated for me during my labor and birth at a public hospital and I was able to achieve my vba2c (with a 4.7kg Bub) with as minimal intervention as possible. I know I wouldn’t have had this incredible birth without her and I cannot recommend her enough. Less

I am so grateful to have found Virginia. She supported me through my conception, pregnancy and miscarriage journeys. Although I had a difficult journey, Virginia was really supportive, always acknowledging and answering my questions, giving me empowering advice and providing emotional support during challenging times. Her wisdom of herbal remedies is astonishing, and I always left feeling empowered and supported.I am excited for my next pregnancy journey and to continue being supported by Virginia's wisdom and trust in the power of the female body.Thank you for everything ❤️ Less

A powerful treatment and deeply loving space held - perfect to accept, integrate and release what I've moving through this year. Thank you so much Virginia, will definitely be back for round 2 <3 Less

Virginia was amazing! She was full of knowledge and answered all my questions. Virginia has created a really safe, positive and calm space so I felt really comfortable throughout the therapy and treatments. She explained why she was doing everything and checked in regularly. I left feeling fantastic, armed with new information and tools to support me. I will definitely be back 😊 Less

I cannot recommend Virginia enough. She was our Doula for our second birth in 2019 and was incredible support. When things started going pear shaped with an unplanned induction and a horrible midwife she swooped in and knew exactly how to handle it, advising us and calming us throughout the whole process to a successful birth. She also took some incredible photos that I am forever grateful for.Fast forward to 2023/24 and I again saw Virginia for Mizan therapy to fall pregnant with my 3rd which was successful after 2-3 visits. It was such a positive and calming experience. I also saw Virginia for pelvic and belly massage at 40 weeks. Virginia also gave us advice and support after pressure from the hospital when I went overdue. I am very grateful to have had her support. She is a wealth of knowledge and experience in all things birth and a great person to have in your corner especially to balance the medical system. Less

had the pleasure of having Virginia as my doula and the experience was truly pleasant. I was provided with unwavering support and warmth throughout my first pregnancy and birth. Her expertise in herbs and essential oils helped me during my birth when I experienced low energy and fainting.Highly recommend Virginia for doula services. Less

I had a very positive experience with Virginia’s services! I was feeling pressured by the hospital to be induced at 39 weeks despite my body not being ready for it and us not understating the “urgency” for it. Virginia managed to fit me in at the very last minute and she answered very thoroughly to all my questions, provided scientific based information in order for us to make the best informed decision regarding the birth of our first child. Pushed induction for one more week and created a birthing plan according to our preferences. Virginia validated our fears and also empowered us with confidence and evidence to stick to our preferences. She also checked in with us during labour and after as well. I highly recommend her services especially for first time mums/parents! Less

I have been to see Virginia twice in my pregnancy for holistic pregnancy body work treatments, the first session left me feeling incredibly relaxed, at peace, like bub had moved into a better position and my body was better aligned. The second session she was able to facilitate and hold space for a very cathartic emotional release through releasing some internal pelvic floor tension, that I had been holding on to for many years.Her presence, dedication and knowledge has made me feel safe and held during both sessions and I have and will continue to recommend her to my family and friends.Thank you very much Virginia 🙏 Less

Virginia was a fantastic support and educator during my pregnancy and with my postpartum care. Both Sam and I are very grateful for the tools Virginia shared with us to support a natural positive birth with our baby girl. Would recommend Virginia to anyone in the shire region! Less

I cannot recommend Virginia highly enough as a Doula. I was provided with an amazing and supportive service. She is a wealth of knowledge regarding women's health and it doesn’t just stop at the birth. I felt so supported as a first time mum during those first couple of weeks after. I’m not sure how I would have done it all without her. Her presence is calming and kind, and she captures the most beautiful photos. I feel very lucky to have found her! Less

Virginia was a great support as a doula throughout my pregnancy, birth, postpartum. She is very knowledgable in many areas of health. Her in home sessions were fun and informative. Which help us to feel more confident about birth. Although birth didn’t go to plan she still made it very special for us. I really loved mother blessing ceremony which Virginia facilitated for me❤️ I highly recommend all her services, she is amazing 🙏🏻😇 Less

I had an amazing Birth Trauma Release session with Virginia. It was such a powerful experience that I would recommend this for anyone who is suffering from past traumas. Virginia was very sensitive about my situation and made me feel comfortable enough that I could open up to her about more past traumas that I had faced. The environment she set up was perfect for me and made me feel safe and complete.Highly recommend this business to anyone! Less

I found Virginia through Google whilst searching for a doula for my first pregnancy. When browsing through her site – everything stood out for me! Knowing she was a herbalist and a vegan, made me feel that we would get along so well and would be perfect in supporting me. And Virginia did not disappoint. She was extremely supportive throughout my pregnancy and homebirth. When my homebirth midwife decided to withdraw her care a few months before birth, I decided on freebirth - Virginia did not leave my side and took on her first freebirth. I am so forever grateful as she upheld her Duty of care for me and did not abandoned me.Virginias’ in-home sessions were loads of fun and educational, it provided me and my partner with lots of knowledge on how to prepare for birth and she also has a great collection of books!!Virginia also helped creating me a herbal tincture to help manage my condition which worked like a treat. I had a beautiful waterbirth at home with my family and Virginia. It was such a magical and wild experience birthing baby and I could not thank Virginia enough for all the support. Virginia also kept in touch post-partum and they were great – the “Closing of the bones” ceremony was beautiful.Virginia is reliant, compassionate, caring, supportive, funny and totally awesome – we got along like a house on fire. In other words, she is a KICKASS DOULA, she is full of love and warmth and you would be crazy not to have her by your side! Thank you so so much Virginia for all that you have done and still continue to do – you are one amazing and beautiful soul. Much love xxx Less

I bought a large jar of The Natural Beginnings Internal Healing Cream a while after I had injured my right knee quite badly. I had tried numerous products to try and ease the pain but without much success until I discovered Natural Beginnings. The cream was amazing, my knee healed and I was able to once again do some of the yoga exercises that I had not been able to manage while my knee had been so painful. So happy with this product that I have just bought more to use on any muscle aches and pains when they happen and also bought the External Healing Cream for any skin injuries or rashes.Virginia is lovely to deal with, and the delivery of my order was super fast.Shirley, 💛 Less

Virginia was my doula and supported me through my first pregnancy and birth of my baby boy in May 2022.She gave me so much strength and guidance. She helped me educate myself and feel prepared for a home birth experience.During pregnancy, Virginia not only gave me the emotional support, but her massages and spinning baby techniques were very helpful!I can't recommend Virginia's services enough!She is kind, genuine, and a true source of light in hard moments.Ps: she also photographed us. Amazing job! Less

I found Virginia through Facebook groups early on in my pregnancy with #bub 2. Virginia worked with me on the preparation for my VBAC which with her help turned around into a dream HBAC! Virginia was instrumental in setting me up for success with her work. She empowered me in so many ways including her work helping me process my first birth - she was a huge confidence boost. I loved having Virginia visit me at home and prepare for birth as well as after bub arrived. She worked to include my 5 year old son too. She supported me on the big day when labour kicked off, guided hubby, partnered with my private midwife and assisted bring bub earthside. I am forever grateful for her. She's full of experience, warmth, humour and love. World's best doula! Less

I went to see Virginia to receive help processing a traumatic birth. The technique she used really allowed me release the tension I was holding in my body, particularly in my womb and I have continued to feel lighter and relaxed since my treatment. During the session I was able to release a lot of built up emotions, make peace with the experience I had and integrate the many lessons it taught me. Virginia made me feel comfortable and also really validated my feelings around my birth experience. I highly recommend Virginia to anyone who has lingering tension or trauma after birthing. Less

Virginia’s service is professional and prompt in terms of timing from pick up to delivery - Virginia clearly understands a mothers needs of having the product back to the mum in good time to combat those potential baby blues or nights that cluster feeding emerges - before day 3!Complimenting the memories of our beautiful angel entering the world, I now have gorgeous art and photos of my placenta and baby’s umbilical cord as well as my placenta pills. Truly, the most precious and nourishing gift! Thank you Virginia! Less

I saw Virginia for an holistic pelvic care session. I was a bit nervous and not sure what to expect going in to the appointment, but Virginia was nothing but professional and re-assuring. I found the session itself very grounding and healing, I walked out feeling much lighter and brighter. Additionally, with Virginia's guidance and after-care advice, I feel confident to continue implementing some of the healing practices she demonstrated at home. Less

Virginia is a professional in her fieldShe can listen and ask right questions so you feel better after baby loss experienceHer studio is a really nice place with warm atmosphere and good aroma where I felt confident and calm during the sessionI still feel relieved and relaxed, got bush flower essences and some materials to continue my treatment at homeThank you;) Less

She is a lifesaver. When I’ve had mastitis, which unfortunately happened many times with my second, she was able to help me with a poke root tincture each time. I am so thankful for her knowledge and help. She is kind and nurturing. Less

Virginia is one of the most wonderful women I've ever met. She showed me compassion, kindness and was exactly the person I needed by my side when I gave birth and afterwards. She continues to check in with me to see how I am going. I'm not just another client to her. She is warm, knowledgeable, calm and will always honour and uphold you in your most vulnerable time. I can't recommend anyone more highly enough to walk you into motherhood. In an unknown space where fear can sometimes overtake, Virginia grounded me and guided me through the journey.The aftercare I received from her was wonderful. I trust Virginia's expertise and knowledge.Thank you Virginia! Less
