When I became a mum to my wonderful daughter in 2025, I knew I wanted to carry her right from the start. Living on the rural Hardwick Estate outside Whitchurch-on-Thames, the paths around us were completely unsuitable for prams and pushchairs, so Maeve needed to be carried if I wanted to get outside. That’s how we started, using old hand-me-down carriers from friends which in retrospect were badly fitting, uncomfortable for the wearer and at times even unsafe for my baby. I knew at the time things didn’t feel right but it took me months to start searching for better options - and once I’d felt the difference of a well-fitting carrier (with the help of a babywearing consultant), I wanted to share this with others.

Working as an NHS A&E doctor, I spend my working days having conversations with people, working out the cause of their problems and trying my best to fix it. Babywearing consultancy is very similar in some ways! I love problem solving and would be thrilled to try to find the best solution for your family too.

Having worked as a doctor for the last 7 years, I have a sound understanding of human anatomy as well as the interpersonal skills so important for both jobs! This means I can confidently tackle the challenges that can come up in babywearing, be that postpartum pelvic floor, breast or caesarean pain, children or caregivers with medical complexity or disabilities, neurodivergence or more. I have seen a lot during my time in A&E so shocking me is also pretty difficult!
