In similar fashion to the 'Bunky Families' posts, I want to slowly introduce you to every one of our amazing team members. The Doulas, birth workers and postpartum healers that make up our support network were all picked because of that magic they all hold. Combined with their desire to gather in community, and their passion for holding space for mothers, babies and families during some of the most vulnerable times. 

First off is me, Emma. The dorky, passionate, and loyal backbone to Bunky Bambino. The woman behind the computer answering the emails, posting to Instagram and trying her best with what I've got. 
My Doula beginnings were founded in my curiosity with pregnancy, postpartum and babies. It was supported by Pacific Rim and the phenomenal instructors that held me and all my peers as we were reborn into Doulas. It's has then grown through Bunky Bambino, for many years I was a postpartum Doula and subsequently a birth Doula with Marlo, as her Doula partner. When time came for Marlo to enter a new (off-call) phase of life, I was passed the torch, bought the company and transitioned into the owner.

About 150 babies later, I have found the ways I love and continue to support families in. My package has shifted over the years and in it's latest iteration has become a start to finish holistic journey.

I have taken my knowledge of what has helped families build and maintain a strong foundation, and crafted according. I ditched the strict number of visits and shifted the focus on building a relationship, loving trust and sharing knowledge. Then I made sure I had all the latest resources, evidence-based studies and physical comfort tools for all types of birth. Lastly my biggest offering is deep postpartum nurturing, for up to 6 weeks post-birth. With weekly (or more) in-home care, a lactation consultant visit, and phone support that continues on.  
I always say I'm like the jack-of-all-trades for the 4th trimester. Need baby tips/tutorials? I'm there. Meal prep, a groceries run, recipe suggestions? On it. Just want to nap, snuggle with your partner or go on a date? Please do!

I want to support clients in all the ways postpartum demands, until I see that you have a steady and healed foundation to continue to grow on. This can happen sooner or later depending on your birth journey, your family's configuration, lifestyle, desires and support systems. We won't know until we know, and I roll with all the punches that may come our way.

Keeping in touch with clients is so heartwarming to me, we just went through one of the most vulnerable days together! Of course I would love to stay in touch, grab a coffee and see how your babe has grown and you have bloomed as parents.

I am so honoured to have served many of you, and can't wait to be there for many others. Here's to many more births, babies, and families.
