Your Questions, Answered

I'm Courtney—a Perth birth doula, Hypnobirthing Australia™ Practitioner and mum of two.
I'm here to make birth feel less overwhelming, more empowering and a whole lot less awkward.
Whether you're booking a class, looking for a doula or grabbing a Birth Bestie Bag, my goal is the same: helping you feel prepared and supported.
-
Perth, Western Australia.
I offer Perth-wide in-person support, hospital bag delivery, in-home private classes and group classes. I also offer virtual support for those living further away - or across the country.
-
Absolutely not.
Whether you're planning a medicated birth, induction, caesarean, VBAC or still figuring it all out—you deserve support.
Birth isn't one-size-fits-all.
-
Everything you actually need for hospital.
Recovery essentials, newborn basics, toiletries, phone charger, power board, snacks and all those little things people forget.
Every item has been carefully chosen because it's something I genuinely recommend as a birth doula and a mum.
-
Just a little—and intentionally so.
You can choose:
• Disposable underwear size
• Swaddle colour
Everything else has already been thoughtfully chosen so you don't have to spend hours comparing products or wondering if you've forgotten something.
That's kind of the whole point. 🤍
-
You absolutely can.
But you'll probably visit a few different shops, spend hours comparing products and still end up wondering if you've forgotten something.
I've already done the research and packed the bag I'd recommend to my own doula clients, friends and family.
One less thing to think about before baby arrives.
-
Usually within 24 hours (subject to stock availability).
You can choose pickup or Perth delivery.
-
Yep!
I deliver throughout Perth, or you're welcome to collect from me.
-
Most families attend between 24–34 weeks, but honestly, whenever works for you.
Earlier means you've got more time to practise and prepare.
-
Please!
They're a huge part of the day, and my classes are designed so they leave feeling confident too.
No awkward role plays, I promise.
-
Think of me as your birth bestie.
I'm there to educate, support and help you feel calm and confident throughout pregnancy, birth and beyond.
No medical advice.
No replacing your midwife.
Just someone firmly in your corner.
-
Only if we make eye contact during the birth ball demo.
Otherwise, no.
😂
Most of my clients actually tell me they weren't sure about having a doula until they met me.
-
Pop me a DM on Instagram.
I could pretend I only reply during business hours...
...but let's be honest, I'm usually answering messages with a coffee in one hand and a toddler asking for snacks.
