Hi, I’m Ella, a mum to two energetic boys, 7-year-old Gabriel and 4-year-old Toby. We live in Randwick and have called the Eastern Suburbs home for over 12 years, having moved here from Canberra. Professionally, I work as a midwife and child and family health nurse, and I own a postnatal midwifery business, Get Set Perinatal. My business focuses on supporting families through the fourth trimester, the crucial first 12 weeks following birth. I believe that while a lot of attention and focus is given to pregnancy and birth, the fourth trimester often gets overlooked. I work with women to…
