Hello,

The Family Wellness Centre is dedicated to promoting empowerment, health, and wellness during the childbearing and early family years. I'm here to tell you that you hold the power to transform how you feel about birth and parenting.

Why me? Well, as a prenatal educator I share information regarding all types of births. Because, once upon a time I too had a one sided narrow vision of what birth was. Ya, so, I quickly learned otherwise....no matter what you plan, Mother Nature may have ideas of her own. 

I intend to empower, challenge, and inspire you to embrace all that comes with birth and family life, even the stuff you may not expect or want to. I'm here to help you navigate through all the crap that holds you back when it comes to believing in your ability to birth and parent from a confident and conscious place.

More often than not people are told what to do, instead of being empowered to make intuitive and informed choices. Part of my teaching model is to help re-frame your relationship with birth. Naturally, this extends beyond childbirth into parenting, and more importantly it creates positive social change.

My mission

• To provide clients with accurate, up-to-date, comprehensive, and EVIDENCE based information pertaining to birth and parenting, thus enabling them to make informed decisions that work best for them and their family. 

Don't Take Life Too Seriously!

Rhea Eady - Actual Bio

Rhea has specialized training as a Childbirth Educator and Birth Doula. This education has provided her with vast knowledge related to pregnancy, birth and postpartum.  This experience is what drove her to open her own practice dedicated to families in their birthing years.  This is how the Family Wellness Centre was born.

Professionally, she graduated from the Canadian College of Health Science and Technology in April of 2012 with an Advanced Diploma in Massage and Hydrotherapy. Previously, she held registration with the Ontario College of Massage Therapists.  Her professional training has provided advanced knowledge of anatomy and physiology and has allowed her to work with a large variety of prenatal and postnatal clients who have a broad scope of needs.

Rhea has been in private practice for close to a decade, and after witnessing the voids within the current birthing environment she decided to pursue a Bachelor in Social Work with the intention of serving women and families.  She is currently in her 3rd year of studying and one day hopes to work in public policy where she can effectively create a better platform for families.

Within her professional career, Rhea has worked with women in both low-risk and high-risk pregnancies, and understands the physical, emotional, and spiritual tolls it can take on the body and family.   Rhea has worked in the field of holistic health since 2002, including consumer education and product development. 

Throughout Rhea’s career she has become well known by local birthing hospitals, midwifery clinics, and with prenatal yoga instructors. Her personal practice has always been regarded as a special place for families to come, relax and feel safe.
