ABOUT ME
Welcome!
I am so grateful that we have connected and that you are curious to know more.
My name is Jamie and my innate being and soul has truly remembered why I am here. I am so excited and passionate to remind women what they already know and to guide and facilitate the transition from Maiden to Mother. I am a mum of three and when I fell pregnant with my youngest child in 2020 the world as we knew it was different. There was a nudge that reminded me that there was more. With so many restrictions and barriers, my calling was one that I could not ignore and I chose to free birth in my home. The symbolism of this birth was more than becoming a Mama to my youngest. A passion ignited and I have created a path in being a Birth Keeper. I was gifted a miraculous, sacred knowing to myself. My soul recognised that this offering was one that I felt called to facilitate, guide and support women who wished to experience what their bodies already knew.
My first two children were cesarean births and I relied heavily on the medical system to give me information about my body. What I was later to learn is that I know and trust my body more than anyone ever can. I trusted, I listened and I remembered. Against the odds of the medical system, I was able to free birth at home and experience the bonds at birth like I had at no other.
PHOTOGRAPHY
I offer photography in alignment with my birth keeper packages or individually. I can tailor a package to suit every need. Whether it’s maternity photography, birth photography* or new born/family photography.
My portfolio can be viewed over on my Instagram account @thebondsofbirth
*Birth photography is only offered in free birth situations, I do not attend hospitals or midwife led home births.
What People Are Saying
“
The birth of my second child was such a ride for me. Having the right people to support you bringing a new life earthside is so important and I felt an instant connection with Jamie. She is gentle, warm and loving. I felt really supported by Jamie throughout pregnancy, labour and birth. She sat with me, heard me and believed in me. This is what all birthing women need. Thank you Jamie.

Jamie as my birth keeper was by far the best choice I made for my pregnancy and birth journey. Having someone present at the birth apart from my partner, who knew and understood me and who I knew and felt comfortable with was invaluable. As a Mum of already 2 I knew I wanted this third pregnancy journey to be complete with how I always imagined it would be. Jamie helped me see that I can and I always had it in me to have my dream pregnancy and birth. Jamie’s knowledge and direct experience, her confidence in the process and in me, the fact that I felt listened to and the fact that she was also able to include my kids and my husband through the process when needed. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind and available. Nothing ever felt too silly to ask and I really did feel stronger with her by my side. She was always available by phone to answer questions or run ideas by. For a third time Mum it was great and I’m sure a first time Mum it would be huge. I feel so lucky to have met her and I do really feel we shared a special bond and have built a special friendship.
