Hello, my name is Tracey Anne Swan. I’m a 58-year-old mother of four and proud grandmother of three. I've had the pleasure of being there for all their births as well as many others.
I began my journey into holistic care in 2003 when I trained as a Remedial Massage Therapist in Sydney, Australia, with additional qualifications in pregnancy, labour, and postnatal massage. My passion for supporting women through the transformative childbirth experience was evident even then.
Although I once dreamed of becoming a midwife, a busy family life and a lack of academic confidence held me back. However, I later discovered the beautiful path of birth support through Doula work.
As a doula, I’ve been able to do what I love most—care for mothers and families in a deeply supportive, non-medical role. As part of my training, I learnt about 'TIDE', a Trauma-Informed Doula Education program. Here I can assist with any past birth trauma and help shift any fear to a more positive outcome.
With experience attending births and a heart devoted to nurturing others, I pride myself on being a steady, compassionate presence. I advocate for mothers, offering strength, calm, and continuous care before, during, and after birth—not just for the birthing person but for the whole family.
I am about to embark on Robozo Training and HypnoBirthing to increase my ability to support the birthing and postpartum community.
