Jenni Helm
Hi I am Jenni. I am so glad you are here.
I am a IBCLC, Midwife, Child and Family Health Nurse.
I am a mum and grammy.
I am passionate about working with families through pregnancy to early parenting. I have been supporting families for over 38 years. I am able to help you be true to yourself along this journey. Newborn adjustment to life outside the womb is hard for them and you. Working out all that sleep and breastfeeding stuff thoughout this time can be easier with the right support.
Connecting with me can make that journey a little less stressful.
My new book soon to be published
Becoming Mama- A faith based journey into Motherhood.
This book is a heartfelt companion for women journeying through pregnancy, birth, and the early months of motherhood. With the wisdom of a midwife, child and family health nurse, and lactation consultant, Jenni Helm offers gentle guidance to help mothers connect with their babies and with themselves. Jenni has been following God each step of the way in writing this book so essentially living the journey with you.
Jenni invites you to pause and reflect — to look back on your own story, offer grace and forgiveness where it’s needed, and begin to shape the kind of mother you long to be. This is a book about healing, hope, and becoming.
Inside, you'll find:
- Encouragement for women of faith to lean on God’s presence and guidance in motherhood
- Restoration of an accurate view of God’s love and investment in your life, helping you to step into a deeper intimacy with Him
- A pathway to forgive, let go, and intentionally plan the kind of mothering that aligns with your heart
- Support to help you trust your God given instincts and feel confident in your role as a mother
- Gentle explanations of your baby’s cues, feeding rhythms, and development
- Space for emotional reflection, birth processing, and the grief that can come with change
- A warm invitation to find your “village” and honour your cultural values
- Insights for others to support families with empathy and evidence-based care
Whether you're expecting your first baby or supporting others through their parenting journey, this book offers the reassurance that you are not alone and how to draw on God for direction and grace in your journey.
