A little re-introduction / life update π€
There's quite a few new faces around here and I have been very quiet on Instagram lately. I've really just been so deep in mothering of late. Throw in some beautiful clients and there has been little time for much else.
So, hi, I'm Dannii, mother of three and postpartum doula. I live in the beautiful McLaren Vale region with my little family and our dog, Penny, a 10 month old Koolie. She's a nutter and we love her!
I'm 38 years old, with the wrinkles and lines to prove it - lines from laughing until I cry and and from smiling so hard my cheeks hurt. And I'm learning to love them more every day.
To age gracefully is a privilege, right?! I feel like the older I get, the more rich my life becomes. On my birthday back in April, my girlfriends took me roller skating. Isn't that fun? Oh, how we laughed!
It's wild to think that I started (very slowly) growing this business when I was deep in my own postpartum with my third child (who, by the way, will be turning three in a couple of days π₯Ή).
In hindsight, it was a bit of a crazy move but I have gotten very good at trusting the timing of my life, so I knew I just had to flow with it and follow the creative surge and inspiration.
Giving birth / becoming a mother can be a huge catalyst for creativity and growth, don't you think?
I learnt so many valuable lessons in that postpartum, many of them the hard way. Lessons that propelled me to want to share what I had learnt with other mothers.
Fast forward to today and I am still learning. Learning about life, my children, my business, myself. It is all ever-evolving and I sure am grateful for it all.
I offer 1:1 in-home postpartum care, facilitation of mother blessings and closing the bones ceremonies and I run seasonal 'Preparing for Postpartum' workshops. I love these offerings so much.
My DM's are always open for queries or questions or just a place to vent!
Thank you so much for being here π
