Welcome to
Chilled Mama!

I'm delighted you've found me. I'm Cathy, Chilled Mama.

I'm a perinatal educator and trainer. Perinatal means pregnancy, birth, and early parenting.

I support parents to find and follow their own path.

I also nurture and educate those who nurture and educate parents. There are so many amazing perinatal practitioners delivering great services in their communities, being the 'village' new parents need.

My approach is blending science and intuition. Forget what everyone else is doing. Let go of your inner critic, and society's rules. Be informed by research, and then trust yourself, trust your child. Relax. Create a family life that is in tune with you.

I hope you find something that helps you find & follow your own path and be the chilled mama/papa/parent/facilitator you want to be - most of the time!

"Cathy is such a warm genuine person, full of knowledge and a passion for supporting women and their families."

"Cathy has been a huge help on my journey into motherhood, with her calming manner and reassuring words. Words underpinned by knowledge of the research and science of pregnancy, labour and birth, feeding, sleep, weaning, and other important areas of new babies' lives.

She also knows that we can't just look after the new babies, parents are also important.

I have gone to several of Cathy's courses and retreat days now and can only recommend her warmly, like a buoy in the rough sea that is parenthood."

"Cathy is a fantastic doula, she has a lovely chilled vibe and really knows her stuff. I felt very comforted and safe with her during my laobur. I would also really recommend any of the courses she runs; she's been doing this a long time and has a lot of experience."
