Perinatal Relationship Expert,
Award-winning Author and Keynote Speaker
Hi there, I’m Elly.
If you’re interested in the wellbeing of nearly-there and new parents, I’d like to connect with you.
After decades of relationship counselling, corporate mental health training, research, writing, wifeing and mothering, my passion is supporting new mothers, fathers and parents. New families need support so they can cope, grow and thrive - at home, at work and in today’s challenging world.
I’m an internationally recognised expert on perinatal relationships and the crucial benefits of including dads and partners for a ‘whole family bonding’ approach to pregnancy, birth and beyond. For more on this please visit becomingusfamily.com.
