About

Hi my name is Zonna, I'm a Nurse, Midwife, Hypnobirthing Australia Practitioner & Optimal Maternal Positioning (OMP) Educator. My passion for providing pregnancy education for women in Sydney is what motivated me to create Happy Birthway and I am so excited to be here on this journey with you and your birth support partner to a positive birth experience. 

I knew from early on in my life that I wanted to go into a profession that specialised in caring for people, this is what lead me to start my nursing career at 15 years of age, studying to be an Assistant in Nursing (AIN) while completing my HSC and graduating high school as an AIN. I then went on to complete my Registered Nursing degree working in one of Sydney's largest tertiary hospital specialising in cardiothoracic, vascular, infectious diseases and palliative care but I knew my passion was supporting and caring for pregnant women and so I decided to complete the graduate diploma of midwifery course.

I continued to study and work as a midwife and within a month of being in the profession I knew, this is what I was born to do. Seeing two people become parents for the first, second or even third time - there is honestly nothing quite as special as that. I then continued my studies and completed my child and family health nursing post-graduate degree course as I wanted to be able to support families from conception all the way through to the toddler years.

I am motivated to providing antenatal education, I am passionate about birth and I know that mother's need more support postnatally, my hope is that couples who attended the Hypnobirthing Australia course and OMP course feel empowered and more confident going into their labour and birth.

I look forward to meeting you soon, thank you for allowing me to be a part of such a special time in your family's life.
