Hi there,
I’m Caitlyn
I became a private midwife to practice continuity of care — because women are best served when care is consistent, personal, and unhurried.
As I progressed through my training and into practice, I saw the impact this kind of care has on women’s experiences across pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period. That understanding now shapes how I practice and continues to drive the standard of care I provide.
“Having a baby is a psychological revolution that changes our relationship to almost everything and everyone.”
- Esther Perel
background
I live and work on our family farm in Yallingup with my husband Dan, who is organic farmer, and our two daughters. Our family has longstanding ties to this area, and I care for women and families locally, both at home and within the hospital system.
This connection to place and community informs how I practice — with a strong sense of responsibility, continuity, and commitment to the families I work with.
