So that you have the confidence to be the best mother and parent you can, while still taking care of yourself.
It is important that you feel supported during this time
I approach each new mother and family with an open mind, listening to your needs, hopes and fears as you embark this adventure. While exciting, becoming a parent can also feel overwhelming and nerve wracking.
More than a Doula
Your body knows what it is doing while preparing for birth, its part of the female anatomy. It is your job to build confidence through mindset and education leading to your birth, so you are strong mentally and believe you were made to do this. Mental support during postpartum is very important, so you can stay strong for your new family. You dont have to struggle through this alone.
Mental Support
During pregnancy and after birth your body is making changes. I can support your through these changes through yoga sessions; moving the body and engaging muscles to massage which gets rid of muscles pain and improves circulation (also post-natal during breastfeeding). All these sessions can be done with friends and babes!
Physical Support
I believe that during this stage of your life it is important to have a strong female circle that you can rely on. I myself am a long way away from my family (mother and grandmother); so the Supportive Sister will be offering 2 monthly get togethers for pre and post natal chats! This is to build a strong sisterhood in your community.

MY SERVICES
In a sense I felt betrayed that this valuable and precious knowledge had been kept from me.
I am here to support you through all stages of bringing your babe earth side. I am so glad you found me - This is a safe space where everyone is welcome.
I am not a mother myself but I am SO PASSIONATE about helping women just like you embark on this adventure in a supportive, calm and judgement free environment. Through my own personal growth as a woman I began learning about the female body, spirit and mind purely out of interest. This led me to complete my Birth Doula Studies in 2022.
I was amazed at how much I learnt, and felt that it was information I should have been educated on during my adolescents. I know now that I have the obligation to educate men and women on this women's health and birth. To be honest, this is how everyone is created.
Adventure lover, holistic mentor, Doula and most importantlyYOUR Supportive Sister
Hey sis, I'm Shelly
pregnancy
birth
beyond
I realized there would be others, probably just like you, that had no idea of their own strength and power in being a woman. I became inspired to share my knowledge and started developing a dream to offer support and services to women in my local community and beyond. Holistic mentorship to help all women feel incredible, strong, spiritual and magical in there natural capabilities.
And so The Supportive Sister was born. A safe place and community for women to gain confidence in how strong they are. I believe this strength is only emphasized through the support of others - you don’t have to do this alone!
