Who We Are
JENNIFER
Aka: Jen - incredible midwife, birth education extraordinaire, postpartum support crew leader, hills local, mum of 3 + 1x furbaby, grandmother to 3, coffee lover, best hug giver and all round beautiful human.
Jennifer is Bloom’s midwife + leading birth educator. She has been a practicing midwife for the last 17 years, working in both public and private hospital settings in the North Eastern suburbs of Adelaide and more recently on the far west coast of South Australia.
Jennifer is passionate about community and connection, about providing continuity of care, empowering women and their families through pregnancy + birth and their postpartum journey into early parenthood.
Jennifer has developed and delivered childbirth education across many platforms and loves nothing more than supporting and educating women and their families. Jennifer is deeply committed to making birth education accessible, accurate and personalised.
Jen is beyond excited to start connecting with the pregnant women and new mums of the Adelaide Hills.
Dominie
Aka: “Muuuuuum!” (at home anyway!) Dominie is a Mum of 3 quite small humans and a menagerie of fur babies at her Hahndorf home. Coffee (& wine) lover, hills local, huge believer in empowering women in all walks of life but particularly through pregnancy and birth.
Domine ran her own business, mentoring, coaching and developing teams for many years, prior to entering motherhood. She always intended on being a working, business woman-mum but had two babies in very close succession (13 months apart!) and realised being Mum needed her heart entire for a little while and business could wait.
She has three incredible daughters, had three VERY different but powerful births and since birthing her second daughter, has felt so strongly about supporting, empowering, coaching and guiding women through pregnancy, birth and their postpartum journeys.
Facilitating connection in our community, offering safe spaces for women and delivering clear, empowering, accessible and personalised birth education is what Bloom is all about and are Dominie’s absolute passions.
Creating Bloom with Jennifer, has been such an incredible time and Dominie feels so excited and honoured to begin working with the pregnant women and new mums of the Adelaide Hills.
