Kia ora,
My name is Hannah and I live with my husband and our two tamariki in the EBOP. I love a cheeky margarita, good kai moana, shopping, travelling and spending time with whānau and friends. I have been on a mission to connect with my Māoritanga the last 10 years.

i have been a registered midwife for the last five years. I have worked in a secondary unit as a hospital midwife but i have predominantly worked as an LMC midwife during my short career. Due to the nature of my mahi, i am extremely passionate about women’s health and in particular pregnancy and the postpartum. I work under a model that supports continuity of care throughout the antenatal, birth and postpartum period. During that time, I am able to form amazing partnerships with whānau that are built on trust and empowerment. As a Māori midwife, i aim to share the knowledge i have gained around traditional Māori birthing practices and love supporting whānau to implement those practices into their care if they wish to do so.

I love utilising my social media platform on Tiktok and instagram to share evidence based resources around hapūtanga (pregnancy) , whakawhānau (birth) and the postnatal period. 

I recognise that not everyone has access or feels comfortable walking in Te ao Māori (Māori world) so I hope sharing the information i have learnt and continue to learn is helpful to those whānau in particular. Seeing Māori and non-Māori embrace our culture and incorporate our traditions is the goal!

Ngā mihi nui ❤️

    "If you are reading this, know this. You are not failing. Not because you’re tired. Not because you use formula. Not because you ask for help. You are doing an amazing job, even if your version of motherhood looks less like a storybook and more like a 6am drive-through run for a hash brown." - Lexi

    "I had so many expectations about birth. Every movie, every story made it seem like this huge, magical moment, the kind where you instantly fall in love, the bond is immediate, and everything just *clicks*...."

    “I gave myself all the permission I had to rest and take it easy.
    Letting others do simple things like emptying the dishwasher or hanging out the washing was mentally hard but I truly believe that rest set up a strong foundation for the rest of my first year postpartum.”

    Stana shares with us her honest experience recovering from a belly birth, with scar massage, unexpected sensitivities, baby-wearing aches, and the strength it took to actually stop and let herself heal.

    If you're in the thick of it or reflecting on your own journey, her story is a powerful reminder: rest is not a luxury, it’s essential.
