Kōrero Whakawhānau
Kōrero Whakawhānau is a space where whānau share their positive birth stories — real, honest and empowering experiences from hapūtanga through to meeting their pēpē. These stories celebrate strength, informed choices, aroha and the many different ways birth can unfold. We hope they uplift, reassure and inspire you on your own journey.

My advice to new mothers is to focus on breath work , connect with your tūpuna, and trust in your body's natural abilities

I always knew I would have a home birth, so me and my husband Daniel put a lot of time and preparation into doing everything we could to have an amazing birth. We attended hapu wananga, hypnobirthing and I read a lot of books with positive birth stories.
