Kane and I had a calling to create a nourishing cafe to bring people together, the birth of You Belong Cafe was born. This was our passion project and we loved where that journey took us. A year later we had another calling, something bigger than we had ever felt before… our little girl Cali was born 9 months later. We returned to Australia and knew we wanted to raise her here, homeschool but in a different way to what I had seen before. This inspiration for homeschooling or looking for options outside of the system came to us when we met so many advanced, open minded, worldly, self empowered young kids who lived and homeschooled in Bali.

In February 2023 our daughter was 3.5 years old and I had been searching for a homeschooling, play based, holistic minded group of mothers and children. I felt at home instantly when I came across MotherMinds. I instantly felt heard and understood by women who were raising their children the way I had dreamt of. After a few months of witnessing Motherminds in-person program I knew my heart felt called to be part of this vision. Paige asked for me to help facilitate some activities which led to being more and more involved in the program Sunflowers. With our second baby girl Skylar on my hip and in the carrier, I showed up every MotherMinds program day feeling a sense of purpose and new alignment. Our vision together has evolved and become bigger than ourselves, creating a community that we welcome you into with open arms.

A bit more about me and how you may see me showing up at MotherMinds.

Showing up hosting and guiding online calls and support for parents on our monthly online calls, fb group Q&A sessions.

In a world where curiosity fuels discovery and laughter weaves moments into memories, you'll find me at the heart of it all.

With boundless energy and a contagious zest for life, I embody the spirit of adventure and fun.

Within the MotherMinds in-person program day I am not just a caretaker, but a second pair of hands, eyes and ears guiding children through the journey of leading their childhood and navigating the world around them.

You’ll catch me racing alongside the children, or defying gravity with playful tricks on the trampoline, welcoming any child who dares to join.

Stopping mid-step to read a story? That’s my specialty, where "stop, drop, and read" is a cherished ritual that sparks imagination and bonds over the pages of countless tales.

I believe learning isn't confined to textbooks, sitting still for hours within 4 walls; it's a hands-on adventure where every spill, every mix, and every bubbling reaction is a lesson in science, discovery, and most importantly, joy.

Beyond my playful spirit lies a heart that embraces all with love, kindness and equality.

I nurture not just the minds and spirits of my own children but share that far and wide with others ensuring holistic health, well-being, safety and allowing endless space for each child to show up fully as their true self are always a priority.

With open arms and a warm welcome.
