Hi, I’m Tracey, a student birth doula training with Rhea Dempsey, and I’m based in Castlemaine, on Dja Dja Wurrung Country.
I feel deeply passionate about women supporting women through pregnancy, birth and the early days of motherhood. Having had four beautiful births myself, I’ve developed a deep trust in the body’s innate wisdom, and an appreciation for how much it can mean to have someone beside you who is calm, present and simply there.
I believe every birth is unique, and that women deserve to feel heard, respected and supported in their own choices. My role is to offer steady, non-medical support - to listen, encourage, help you feel informed, and hold a calm space around you as you move through birth in your own way and in your own rhythm.
As I continue my training, I’m currently offering my support on a volunteer basis and would be honoured to attend births as a student doula, alongside your existing birth team or as an additional source of support.
I feel very grateful for the opportunity to learn from each woman and family I meet, and to be welcomed into such an important and intimate time in their lives.
If you’re expecting a baby and would like to have a chat about whether I might be a good fit for you, I’d love to connect.
Many thanks!
Tracey
