About Us

Meet the team

Hannah and Mat are the team behind Pēpi Pools. Mum and Dad to three beautiful boys, they noticed a distinct lack of accessible resources for expectant mamas in Dunedin. 

Hannah’s journey began when she recognised the transformative power of water during her home birth with their second son. Home births are a choice that require careful preparation and Pēpi Pools provides mothers with a sense of reassurance and comfort.

 

Pēpi Pools is a well recognised name in the birthing world in NZ and they offer a lifeline for expectant mamas seeking the serenity of a home birth.  Our birth pools are often also hired by expectant mamas with the view of using water to help their labour progress in a positive way at home, before later making the transition to hospital.

 

What we offer

With a selection of top of the line birthing pools and obstetric TENS machines, Pēpi Pools has become the first port of call for many in the birthing community. 

Hannah is very passionate about ensuring women feel empowered wherever they chose to give birth and believes the services she offers can help enable women to embrace the natural beauty of the birthing process. 

Hannah and Pēpi Pools are transforming the way women approach childbirth, one warm and loving pool at a time.

Sarah Burgess

"I hired a TENS machine from Pēpi Pools for my first baby and I am so thoroughly grateful for having the use of the machine. It was so easy to book and efficiently organised. The machine was beautifully organised and easy to set up with clear instructions and the lovely inclusion of affirmation cards. I relied on the machine through a long and difficult labour and would have been lost without it. Thank you so much for reducing this stress when I needed it most !! 💖"
