Hi, I'm Elly and I'm a Parenthood Guide. I'm here to help you and your partner find your way through the wilds and wonders of pregnancy, birth and beyond.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, disoriented, or unsure of what’s “normal.” Becoming Us offers a reassuring map for this journey, helping you and your partner understand what’s happening beneath the surface, adjust expectations of each other, anticipate what lies ahead, and stay connected as your family grows. For professionals, it provides a clear, compassionate pathway and practical tools to support whole-family wellbeing.
