We are looking for expressions of interest from doulas (currently in Adelaide but also wanting EOIs from other areas) who interested in working with our NDIS participants either during pregnancy or in early parenting. DMC Support is a small niche NDIS Registered organisation that focuses on providing support from pre-pregnancy through to parenting for people with a disability in most States in Australia. Lived experience of disability is viewed as an important attribute for doulas wanting to submit an EOI. If you are interested please contact Namira on admin@dmcsupport.au

Recently, I had the privilege of talking with Careseekers, an organisation that provides high quality support workers to work with other organisations.

Parenting can be challenging for anyone but for parents with disability, stigma and lack of support often make it harder. We spoke with Namira Williams, founder of DMC Support, about how her team is breaking down barriers and helping families thrive.

We are so excited that one of our midwives has been awarded the 'Midwife of the Year' Award for the Northern NSW Local Health District.

Jess works tirelessly to support women and families in their pregnancy, birth and parenting journey. We have been fortunate to have Jess working with us at DMC Support to provide support and guidance to mothers and partners in their transition to parenthood.

We are so sorry to hear this news from Michel Odent's family.

"It is with great sorrow that the family of Dr Michel Odent announce his death at the age of 95. Dr Odent was born July 7, 1930, in Bresles, France. He died peacefully in London, England, on August 19, 2025 following a brief illness.

Dr Odent trained as a general surgeon in Paris, and advocated for the demedicalisation of birth whilst in charge of Pithiviers Hospital. In later life, he founded the Primal Health Research Centre in London, and published extensively on topics related to childbirth and early breastfeeding.

He is survived by many loved ones, including his partner Liliana, and children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. His family wishes to express their thanks to the doctors, nurses, and staff of St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to La Leche League. Dr Odent will be cremated in a private family service with a public memorial to follow in several weeks."
