The Kaia Team

Sheraden 

Founder

Sheraden is an IVF nurse, mother of three girls, and the creator behind Kaia Birth.

She began teaching birth education in 2020 after the birth of her first daughter. Through years of educating families, teaching hypnobirthing, and supporting women through labour and birth, Sheraden gained a clear understanding of what modern parents truly want and need to feel prepared, confident, and empowered.

That experience led to the creation of the Kaia Birth course you see today — a modern, evidence-based, non-biased birth education experience designed to support families through every type of birth journey.

Gabby 

Educator, Newcastle

Gabby is a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula and the founder of Up the Duff Doula, as well as a Kaia Birth Educator.

Recently becoming a mother herself and welcoming her first baby boy at home, has profoundly shaped the way Gabby supports others in the birthing space.

Her own experience strengthened her belief in the power of physiological birth, intuitive support and the importance of feeling safe, respected and deeply supported throughout the whole journey.

Known for her warm, sensitive and nurturing nature (a true Pisces at heart) Gabby brings compassion and a grounding presence to the families she works with.

NEWCASTLE LOCATION

Alice

Educator, Central Coast

Hi, I’m Alice — aka The Modern Doula - bringing you a modern, no-fluff, and deeply practical approach to pregnancy & birth. You won’t find me charging crystals under a full moon, burning sage sticks or dehydrating placentas (not that there’s anything wrong with that — it’s just not my style!).

As a certified birth and postpartum doula, Optimal Maternal Positioning educator and Kaia Birth Educator, I’m obsessed with helping couples stack every controllable factor in their favour for a positive birth. I love working with the body — understanding how movement, positioning and awareness can support the natural mechanics of labour, and working with our mind to overcome our limiting beliefs. My teaching blends ancient techniques with evidence, real talk and practical tools so women (and their partners!) know how birth works, why it works, and what they can actually do to influence it for a positive outcome.

Outside of the birth world, I’m a 5:15am-Pilates-girlie, an ocean-swim-addict, and mum to my two gorgeous girls — the heartbeat behind everything I do.
