Episode 7: Homebirth Chat w/ Elsie Ruijgrok (Co-Founder of Homebirth Victoria, Birth Doula, Podcast Host, Mum).

Send us Fan MailIn today's episode, we chat to Elsie. Elsie is the co-founder of Homebirth Victoria, she's a birth doula, host of "Birthing at Home - a Podcast", and most importantly, she's a mumma.We chat about Elsie's experiences giving birth at home, some common misconceptions on home-birth, some of the reasons women choose to birth outside of the hospital system, and all sorts in between.I wanted to add a quick disclaimer that as much as I have a love for home birth and it's many benefits - I have absolutely no issues whatsoever supporting women birthing in a hospital setting. In fact, the vast majority of my clients do birth in hospital, and I help them to have beautifully positive and empowering experiences there too :)Hope you enjoy!PS. For some reason, the audio seems slightly sped-up, so I recommend adjusting your playback rate a little so it doesn't sound so fast.Where to find me:👉 If you're in Sydney and are looking for in-person birth doula support, view my packages via my website www.guardiandoula.com.au👉 My instagram: @guardian.doula👉 My email: [email protected]
