I am SO excited you are here. My passion is helping Mums find that “me time” that they crave so badly, especially Mums who have experienced a premature birth or Mums who care for children on the Autism Spectrum. I love helping and encouraging them to put themselves first. To apply their oxygen mask so that they can cope with the rollercoaster of emotions that have to deal with every day.

Why is this my passion?

My amazing boys were born at just 25 weeks weighing 778g and 940g! Living in the bubble of the Neonatal, Special Care Baby Unit is only totally understood by other Mums that have lived through it too. After 107 days in hospital, I brought my babies home. 

It was when I got home that I wish I had that extra support, I felt alone, no longer surrounded by the comfort of the nurses or the other Mums.

Both my children are diagnosed with Autism. Over the years I have gained a wealth of knowledge that I now share with other parents. From techniques I used to help my children to being the best advocate for your child, especially when it comes to dealing with local authorities, schools and getting the additonal support that your child is entitled to.

Since becoming a solo mum when my boys were 18 months I have dealt with many ups and downs, I call it the conveyor belt of emotions. Looking back I didn’t deal with those emotions in the best way, I became an emotional eater, I tried to cope through the downs with drink. The depression cloud has visited me a few times. It is only since I started looking at other ways of coping that I have realised there is a much better healthier way of doing things. Taking care of ME first! And THIS is where my fabulous Health Warrior Community was born.
