About Jemma

Where It All Began

Nurturing others has always been a part of me. I grew up in a small town south of Hobart, surrounded by garden beds, homemade meals, and a strong sense of community. My family taught me the beauty of creating comfort for others - something that still lives in everything I do today.

Motherhood & the Call to Hold Others

Becoming a mother changed everything. Over nearly two decades and through raising three children, I’ve come to understand the quiet power of showing up with presence, softness, and care - not just for others, but for myself too.

My own postpartum experiences stirred something deep within me. I realised how much women need to be held, heard, and nourished - and how often that support is missing.

Touch, Beauty, and Deep Care

Alongside postpartum care, I was drawn to beauty therapy and bodywork - not for surface-level results, but for the way touch has the power to calm the nervous system and bring someone back to themselves.

After more than 12 years working with skin health and hands-on therapies, I’ve learned that true well-being goes far beyond the surface. It’s about being seen. Feeling safe. Letting go.

Wild Nurturance & Alchive

Wild Nurturance is my personal offering - where I bring together everything I love: healing treatments, nourishing meals, postpartum support, and women’s circles. It’s a reflection of my lived experience and how I choose to care.

In 2024, I co-founded Alchive as a way to expand that care and create space for other women to gather, rest, and heal. Alchive is now home to my treatments, collaborations, and community offerings - a warm, inviting carriage where slow living meets intuitive wellness.

My work has evolved into something fuller, more embodied. I now offer intuitive facial therapy, scalp massage therapy, postpartum in-home support, devotional massage - a slow, full-body experience designed to nourish and deeply and restore.

Everything I offer is about returning you to yourself, in the most gentle and grounded way.
