Placenta Encapsulation - Perth
Why choose Kristin at Mamawise?
I bring over 14 years of experience and have encapsulated close to 1,300 placentas for mothers across Perth. (Previously known as BodyWise BirthWise)
I am dual-certified. First in 2012 with Placenta Benefits (PBi), and then through the Association of Placenta Preparation Arts (APPA) in 2016 - still widely regarded as the gold standard in placenta training.
I maintain annual certification in Bloodborne Pathogens and Infection Control, in line with occupational health and safety standards for handling human tissue.
I have earned the trust of midwives, obstetricians, and doulas, and have a strong base of returning clients who come back for their second, third, and even fourth babies!
I don’t overbook; I limit the number of bookings I accept each month, so you receive the personalised, reliable and professional service you deserve.
I have never received a report of adverse effects from any of my clients using their placenta capsules.
“Thank you so much Kristin, for everything. If I were having any more children, I would be getting placenta encapsulation again.
I continue to tell people about my experience with having my placenta encapsulated. The benefits have definitely been worthwhile. I just take one little capsule and within one day I am full of energy and life – even with a small amount of sleep. Zoé is thriving and I can’t thank you enough for that.
My husband and I have been talking about the benefits. We found that I have more energy and feeling good overall, my postpartum bleeding went away within 4 weeks. Compared to my son – which was 12 weeks. My milk supply has gone well and Zoé is 6kgs!
Your products are amazing and I hope to get some for friends who having any more children in the future. Thanks once again.”

Safety, Integrity & Privacy
I follow all APPA and Department of Health guidelines, including strict protocols for handling, sanitising, storage, and identification.
I do not make therapeutic claims about the use or benefits of placenta encapsulation, in line with TGA regulations.
I have always held full insurance coverage for placenta encapsulation services.
I was the first provider in Perth to introduce personalised, branded Placenta Kits (since 2017), compliant with the Department of Health’s Packaging and Transport of Pathology Specimens and Infection Control Guidelines.
Every booking includes a Placenta Kit - this is not an option or an additional charge. It comes to you flat-packed, and is compact, discreet, and easy to take to your place of birth.
Respectful, Confidential Care
I never intrude on your birth space. Even if you invite me in, I do not ask for photos or promotional content.
I am highly sensitive to your privacy and rest, and always collect placentas discreetly and respectfully, often without entering your room at all.
Your placenta is only ever handled by me, from collection through to processing and capsule delivery.
I do not outsource any part of the process or allow unqualified individuals to assist.
I do not use promotional photos of your placenta, capsules, or labelled containers that could reveal your identity.
Strict Quality Standards
I work on one placenta at a time - from start to finish - even with multiple sets of equipment.
My preparation methods include:
Proper identification procedures
Temperature and dehydration controls
Aseptic techniques
Use of hospital-grade cleaning agents and PPE
Full compliance with the Australian Government Department of Health Infection Control Guidelines
I never use essential oils in the steaming water, nor burn incense or smudge sticks over the placenta - there is no evidence to support the safety or efficacy of such practices.
I work from a dedicated workspace using dehydrators with top-positioned fans only.
Capsule & Packaging Care
I only use clear capsules, so you can easily see the integrity of their contents. I do not provide artificially flavoured capsules.
Capsules are packed in rigid, recyclable plastic containers and not glass, which poses a breakage risk that can render capsules unsafe.
Capsules are typically finished and posted within 24-36 hours of receiving the placenta, so you can begin benefiting from them as soon as possible, and help buffer the hormonal shift of the early days after birth.
Capsules come with a comprehensive booklet that contains all the information you require.
I only used Australia Post Express Service, and all parcels require a signature on delivery. If you anticipate staying in the hospital for a few days, I can send it to another address (e.g. family/friend).

“I would just would like to say what a fantastic experience my first placenta encapsulation process has been. Kristin’s service from beginning to end was faultless – even the packaging was superb! After suffering from postnatal depression after the birth of my first child I was determined to make my second time a much more pleasant experience for myself.
I believe taking my placenta capsules has made me adjust to the hectic life of two children much easier, I feel less anxiety in those stressful moments of motherhood & my milk supply has never been better. I have also purchased other products from Kristin’s range and could not fault the service – goods arrived the very next day!”
Dallas
“I have found taking my placenta capsules to be a lifesaver. This was my second baby, and I have taken them both times. This time, I was not very organised in ordering them so I didn’t get them till the 4th day after birth. The difference in my mood and mental health before and after taking them was strong and very much demonstrated the benefits. Having experienced mental health issues for years, I can definitely say that taking the placenta capsules is amazing.”
Cara
“In the 6 weeks since my little man arrived, I have felt literally no exhaustion, no low mood, and have had no tears. I waited and waited for some type of slump – but nothing.
My milk supply has been abundant and I have had energy most days to run after my toddler and be up all night with my newborn. I can really only put it down to my placenta capsules. I really don’t want them to run out!!!”
Renee, baby Rex
“I literally cannot recommend the capsules or Kristin enough!! After a friend was raving about her experience I figured I had nothing to lose by trying placenta encapsulation and messaged Kristin straight away. From the first message with all the information through to the delivery of the capsules she was so wonderful. She even went above and beyond for me when I needed some products from her online store. Hands down best decision I made. I’ve had no post baby blues at all and plenty of energy.
I also really appreciated how accessible she was when I went into labour unexpectedly and sent her a last minute text. The products on her online store are amazing. I’m so grateful I purchased that little wash bottle - it made such a difference with my lady garden once I started using it! Thank you Kristin, you are an angel x”
Renee, baby Addison
“This was my third time having my placenta encapsulated through Kristin and I cannot speak more highly of her services. It is always such a smooth and enjoyable process and I have learnt new things from her each time. Once again, I enjoyed the amazing benefits of the placenta capsules while taking them. Amongst a long list, my energy levels were surprisingly good, and things that would normally seem overwhelming were much easier to process and deal with. I would recommend Kristin to any expecting mother.”
Megan, baby Fox
“It's almost 8 weeks since Abby was born and I feel energetic during the day, I feel emotionally sound and confident as I go about my day with a very little anxiousness and mood swings. As this is only my first baby I have nothing to compare the experience to however, a lot of Mum friends have commented on how great my energy is despite such little sleep. Despite the normal hormonal tears not long after delivery, I have felt very together since returning home from hospital and I have remained so. I will definitely do placenta encapsulation with my next baby and will use Kristin again. She is professional, informative, and provides a really quick turnaround so you can get the benefit of the capsules so soon after delivery. Thanks so much for looking after my placenta. I'll be in touch when baby #2 comes along!”
Nikki, baby Abby
“I was a little concerned how I would cope with my newborn as my previous two children were born when I was much younger, and I have always had low iron levels too. I feel the placenta capsules really helped me with a night for you (energy wise) and just keep me feeling like during the day, and able to cope with my 2 kids, and 2 step kids also.
I had a lot of comments about how well I looked, and I really did feel like I was buzzing! Very glad I got the placenta tincture for future too!
Thanks Kristin, you're to be commended on such professionalism and supplying such a great service to mums at the most important part of our lives. Thank you!”
Caterina, baby Violet
“I am definitely glad I decided to encapsulate my placenta. I was quite nervous before giving birth to my daughter and about how much my life was going to going to change and how I was going to juggle everything. But I have been surprisingly calm and relaxed since she arrived. Everything has felt very natural, and I haven't felt stressed or overwhelmed at all, which I'm sure could be due to taking the capsules. I would definitely recommend Kristin, she was informative and my capsules were ready in just two days after giving birth!”
Emma, baby Sadie
“Third time around, I was very concerned that a new baby would be overwhelming and take its toll on me emotionally and physically. With two not-so-tiny humans to look after and a partner who had to go back to work fairly quickly, that really wasn't an option.
The placenta capsules gave me more energy and allowed me to actively rest my body and my mind, which in turn fought off that pesky postnatal anxiety. Kristin's communication was second to none. From the website, to emails, to the details on the placenta transport kit.
I can't recommend placenta encapsulation enough, it made my third birth (third caesarean) the best by far. My recovery was seamless, my energy to handle all three kids is amazing, and it allowed me to bond with my baby whilst doing all the things. It was exactly what I needed.”
Cassie McNeill
“I am so glad I had Kristin encapsulate my placenta for the second time now, after the birth of my daughter. There is a gap of only 15 months for my firstborn born so I was quite worried I would feel really overwhelmed and exhausted when Matilda was born. However, I have had such an amazing experience and credit a lot of it to my placenta capsules. My mind has remained clear, I feel my energy is high and I've had no feelings of anxiety. I am so grateful for Kristin's amazing services.”
Megan, baby Matilda
“We'd like to thank you for the speediness of the placenta pick up and capsules delivery, and for liaising with my partner during my labour. I wasn't sure if the capsules were making me feel any different given it was my first baby and I didn't really know what to expect. Until I was sitting at my mothers group the other mums talked about how they cried for two weeks straight after coming home from the hospital! I definitely didn't experience this at all. I also think at times I had more energy with the little sleep I was getting - it was a good overall balance. I will highly recommend your services and placenta encapsulation to any new mum, and I will definitely be doing it again with baby number two! I would hate to know what the experience would be like not taking the capsules! I'll be in touch when number two comes along.”
Aleasha
“I don't consider myself to be all that holistic however I would have done almost anything to avoid the baby blues. I thought that I can't go wrong with taking a pill made of my own hormones that have been made by me, for me. I wanted the best for my overall healing and as I commenced my research I found that so many mum experienced great benefits from encapsulating their placenta. Kristin was incredibly fabulous throughout my experience, both during and post pregnancy. I have felt energised, focused and haven't had any signs of depression or anxiety since taking my placenta capsules.
I will definitely be doing this again with my second child and I can highly recommend it for anyone considering it. Thank you Kristin for being so fabulous and an absolute pleasure to deal with. You have helped me achieve the most positive transition into becoming a mother.”
Tiffiny, baby Bridie
“I feel so grateful to have crossed paths with Kristin. This was my first pregnancy, during the early months I began researching how I could honour my placenta that was nourishing my baby so well. I came across Kristin's website and immediately felt that this was the right way to go. I'm absolutely delighted with how everything went.
Kristin is professional, kind and supportive. While taking my placenta capsules, I felt replenished and loved the boost of energy they gave me. The only tears I had through those first weeks worth of joy and gratitude. I put that down to the wonderful homebirth experience, as well as the placenta capsules supporting my hormonal shifts during that time. When Kristin called to our home to collect the placenta, she was very respectful of our space, she brought such a lovely energy into our home that morning and it was a joy to share a baby bubble with her. I received some great breastfeeding tips and encouragement from Kristin which I am still grateful for today.'“
Niamh, baby Bear
“Firstly, I wanted to say thank you for your excellent, non-complicated and professional service. You made it so easy for my bleary eyed husband to get my precious placenta to you after a night of no sleep for him, and labour with no progress which sadly ended in another caesarean (failed VBAC) for me. Our little boy Ben was born in perfect health however, 4.2kg and knew exactly how to get his nourishment very quickly. My milk came in incredibly quickly and was abundant, and continued to be that way while on the placenta capsules. Ben suffered with colic quite badly until about 10 weeks, but I continued to feed him no problem. Considering my lack of sleep (day and night) my energy levels are steady, and I was complimented regularly on how well I looked. Even if I didn't always feel it! My iron levels post-pregnancy were also amazing, the best they had been in years!”
Rachel, baby Ben
“I'm so glad I decided to encapsulate my placenta and that I used Kristin. She was very informative and helpful throughout the whole process. I benefited in so many ways, and it was a very different postnatal experience the second time around. I dealt with sleep deprivation much better due to increased energy levels, less anxiety, definitely better sleep quality, just to name a few. If you have been thinking about encapsulating your placenta don't hesitate at all to use Kristin!”
Kate, baby Archie
“Kristin's level of service was outstanding. She has a very caring and professional approach. Her website was informative comprehensive, and answered all my questions before I booked in. She came recommended to me and I would now highly recommend her! The little bit of advice she gave me to help bring my milk in the so helpful and worked wonders! I would also recommend her lovely herbal products. Thank you Kristin.”
Debbi
“This was the first time I tried placenta encapsulation (third baby) and I'm so thankful I did and that I chose Kristin! We had quite a rocky journey this time around. Bub had an undiagnosed upper lip and posterior tongue ties, which caused him to lose too much weight, excruciating pain while breastfeeding, as he couldn't latch properly which then affected my supply. This all meant that I had to breastfeed and express between every feed 24/7 for two weeks.
I don't honestly don't know how I would have gotten through the whole ordeal without the support of taking the placenta pills. I felt the pills also kept my supply strong despite all the challenges I faced. My body also healed really quickly postbirth and more importantly, I felt strong mentally and supported during these really tough times. Kristin was a pleasure to deal with and the information she provided it was amazing. I have been telling everyone about my wonderful experience and wouldn't hesitate to do it all over again if I have another bubba!”

“After pregnancy and birth, mothers require as much care as their newborn - to recover, replete, repair and recalibrate.”
