Knowledge is power. Our aim is to unravel and interpret the latest research and evidence-based practices for pregnancy, postpartum and motherhood. As mums and researchers ourselves, we have experienced first-hand the overwhelming complexity of information, myths and old-wives tales. Even worse, 'advice' is being given to mums without the proper context or knowledge of their individual needs. So tune in to hear us ask experts, researchers and specialists about all things mother care, pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

Jan has been advocating for women and birth in Australia for decades. She shares the reforms the Australian birth industry has undergone and the steps we need to take to move closer to the better birthing practices.
Travelling around Europe in a Combi van with her husband in the early 70’s, Jan was one of the original flower children when she fell pregnant with my first child, Emma.
The disempowering childbirth that delivered Emma spurred her on to midwifery training, which Jan completed at the Queen Victoria Hospital in 1975, going on to work at Monash Medical Centre for many years. Jan has been in private practice as a midwife for 25 years now and remains committed to avoiding disempowerment of the family during pregnancy, birth and beyond.
