Nikola Henderson

Nikola has worked as a Midwife for 10 years, and has supported families through pregnancy, birth and their early parenting experiences. She has guided parents from many different cultural backgrounds through this transformative time, providing compassionate and evidence-based care, ensuring they feel well supported, informed and empowered. She brings this experience into her role as a Mentor and is passionate about every parent knowing that they are not alone and that they have guidance, care and advocacy as they navigate and embrace the challenges and the joys of raising their family.

Nikola is committed to helping young parents set meaningful goals and facilitate positive change. Through mentorship and encouragement, she is passionate about building young parents’ confidence and resilience in working towards achieving these goals. Nikola prides herself on creating a safe space where young people can feel heard and seen and that their dreams and their goals feel possible.

Outside of being a Mentor, Nikola is a toddler mum who loves chasing after her one-year-old, exploring new places, spending time with her family and being outdoors whether it is by the beach or in the hinterlands.
