Welcome to Birth Works

I give you the continuity of care that will support you through the choices, challenges and celebration of parenthood. Plan, prepare and experience the journey into and of parenthood in a positive and empowering way.

Together we work to:

  • build trust in your natural parenting abilities
  • increase your awareness about the culture of birth and parenting
  • know your options and make informed choices
  • prepare for and experience an empowering birth
  • feel resourced and ready for the ongoing journey of parenthood....

I support your right to make informed choices regarding where, how and with whom you give birth. My desire is to see you and your family confident in yourselves, to grow in life skills and to experience, not only the birth, but the day-to-day life as a parent, with love, health, support and satisfaction.

I offer:

  • Life coaching
  • Childbirth education & preparation (physical, emotional, practical)
  • Birth Attendance/Birth Doula
  • Hypnobirthing skills and NLP techniques
  • Post birth debriefing
  • Vaginal Birth After Caesarean (VBAC) support
  • VBAC Workshops
  • Choices in childbirth
  • Advocacy
  • Referrals to community resources
  • Birth talk program for teenagers (schools/community)
  • Peer support group

"Thank you Erika"

"Erika, your support during the birth of Matilda gave us the ability to really enjoy and feel empowered by our birth experience. What fear and apprehension we may have had before quickly faded into a strength we never knew we had. Thank you dearly for your knowledge, strength and support. You truly have changed our lives" - Sandy and Justin Pritchard.
