Prepare Well.
Recover strong.
Mother with Confidence.

OT in Motherhood provides online education and support to help you with birth preparation and postpartum recovery. Get evidence-based guidance to help you heal your body, care for your baby, and adjust to the motherhood role.

Created by an Occupational Therapist and 3 x c-section mum who’s walked this path herself.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed…
You’re not the only one.

You’re in the right place if…

  • You’ve been told you need a C-section and feel unsure what to expect
  • You wish someone would clearly explain what recovery actually looks like
  • You’re juggling caring for a toddler and a newborn while also recovering from surgery
  • You want practical guidance that fits your life, not just “sleep when the baby sleeps” 
  • You would love to baby wear, but don’t know where to start
  • You’re overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood
  • You want to feel confident in your body again

You deserve structured, evidence-based support while your body heals, and reassurance that you’re doing your best.

When you have the right support…

  • You understand what’s happening in your body, and why
  • You know how to move safely and care for your baby and toddler
  • You have a gentle plan for recovery, instead of piecing together advice from Google
  • You feel supported while adapting to each stage of motherhood

Hello

I’m Kristy

As an Occupational Therapist and c-section mum, I realised how little guidance women receive about birth recovery while also caring for their baby. I struggled to adapt to the demands of motherhood, and felt anxious about doing everything ‘right.’

I created OT in Motherhood to provide the education and support every mother deserves.

I use a holistic and person-centred approach in my services. This means I see you as a whole person (not just a Mum!) and I support you with whatever is most important to you. I help you understand how to care for your body after birth, adapt to your new routines, and create a supportive home environment to enable you to thrive at every stage:

PREPARATION

Learn what to expect and how to prepare your body and home before birth.

RECOVERY

Protect your healing body while safely caring for your baby.

MOTHERHOOD

Practical strategies for daily life with your child.
