Hi, I'm Charlotte
I am a mum, a midwife of 15 years now working in private practice with families planning a homebirth, a certified International HypnoBirthing® (The Mongan Method) educator, a birth teacher, and I’m passionate about families having an informed and empowered birth.
My goal is to offer all women, everywhere, access to in-depth evidence based birth education during their pregnancy and gold standard midwifery care.
To understand that there are other ways to birth, free from fear and horror stories.
To know that you too can have a calm birth – whether in a hospital or at home, an elective c-section, induction or drug free.
All mums, all births, and all families deserve birth education and a midwife who understands and cares about their wants and needs.
I have worked in a number of hospitals in Brisbane and Interstate, that all have very different approaches to care for women, however, the remaining constant between all of these hospitals was their lack of time and staff.
Your Care Provider and your choice of Childbirth Education are the most important decisions you can make.
You don’t get a birth do-over but the decisions you make during this journey can impact your body, your relationship and your parenting.

My Classes and Midwifery Services
Benefiting Birth and Beyond are passionate about teaching all women how to have an educated birth, so naturally, we have a range of classes to suit all families and all budgets. Since 2023, I moved into Private Practice offering women the opportunity to have my ongoing care and support one to one care during their pregnancy, birth and postnatal journey. Having walked my three pregnancies with a known midwife by my side, I know that the impact of a knowing your midwife, especially at birth, whether birthing in hospital or home is beneficial for mothers and her supports.
We are located on the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland. However, we also offer antenatal classes to online via ZOOM and online downloads.
Our classes include 1 to 1 birth preparation appointments, a 1 day Mindful Birthing class including birth education and meditation. In addition we also run elective c-section classes, online birth classes, and postnatal classes.
All classes cover the emotional and physical changes to families during this new and exciting time.
Midwifery Services include antenatal and postnatal care or full continuum including homebirth on the Sunshine Coast. If you want to read more about this service, get in contact to discuss your personal needs.
