My Story

As a child, all I ever wanted to be was a mom.  But when the time came, I was terrified.  Despite attending childbirth classes, I had no idea what to expect, and I lacked confidence in myself.

 

Over the past four years, I've spent a lot of time getting acquainted with the many aspects of childbirth.  I've attended multiple workshops, and earned certification with DONA International.

I don't wish anyone to fear childbirth like I did, and I believe that preparation and support can make it a more positive experience.

My name is Maida, and I'm the mother of two wonderful little boys.  It's hard to find time for all my passions: I'm an avid knitter and yoga enthusiast, and have also been a professional dancer, as well as a medical volunteer with St John Ambulance.
