About me

I am a mum of two incredible children, Isla and Noah and I passionately believe that every child deserves an equal start in life. I started Baby Give Back because I realised how lucky we were to be able to give our children everything they needed for the best start and I saw an opportunity to redistribute items to help families who aren't as lucky as my own. I have led the organisation from a small volunteer effort in my garage to a trusted organisation scaling statewide. My vision is for an Australia where every child has an equal start in life and families are surrounded by strong systems of support. I am passionate about early childhood equity, community-driven solutions and strengthening the village around families. My favourite way to unwind is a sunrise run at the beach.
Baby Give Back has supported over 50,000 babies and children but this is just the start. I’m excited about the Social Change Fellowship because it’s a rare opportunity to step back from the day-to-day and invest in the kind of leadership that creates lasting change.

My passions

  • Early childhood equity
  • Practical help that connects to systemic change
  • Mobilising volunteers and community support
  • Collaboration and partnerships for impact
  • Leveraging the circular economy to provide practical support
