I am Debi Azubel, a birthkeeper and traditional postpartum doula, having been initiated into this work like many other women, through my own personal experience of birthing and raising my 2 children.
I weave into my work the various tools I have collected along the way as a permaculturist, gardener, primary school teacher, as well as my love for cooking, reading, music, ritual and community. I have trained with Rhea Dempsey as a birth doula and studied with Rachelle Garcia Seliga at Innate Traditions for postpartum care. I follow the teachings of Naolí Vinaver and the lineage of Traditional Mexican midwives in my closing of the bones ceremonies . I live in Thornbury and service the inner north suburbs, I'm open to travel further upon discussion. |
I acknowledge the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which I live and work. I acknowledge and respect their ongoing connection to land, waterways, and community. I recognise that I live and work on stolen land and that sovereignty was never ceded. I express my deep respect and gratitude for all Elders past, present, and emerging.
