Fearless Mums & Bubs
Leah Kershaw
Hi, I’m Leah – Founder of Fearless Mums & Bubs + Events. Originally from the Gold Coast, I’ve called Gladstone home for the past 8 years. With over a decade of experience in the events industry, everything changed when I became a mum in 2021. I craved connection, support, and a safe space - so Fearless Mums & Bubs + Events was born.
What started small, quickly grew into a vibrant community group where friendships flourished, connections were made and every parent felt included.
​
Now, as a proud mum to my two beautiful girls, Ivy and Lucy, I bring both my professional experience and personal journey into creating meaningful moments for families across Gladstone. Let’s grow together!

Confident Beginnings
Elizabeth Purnell-Webb
Hi, I’m Liz – Founder of Confident Beginnings. With over 30 years of experience in the maternity industry, I’ve had the privilege of supporting families around the world through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.
​
My journey has taken me across continents, studying and practicing in diverse settings, and each experience has shaped the way I support families today. Through Confident Beginnings, I offer fertility information, childbirth education for couples, baby massage and reflexology, and baby movement and exercise—all designed to help parents feel calm, confident, and connected.
​
Whether you're preparing to welcome your little one or navigating those early months, I’m here to guide you with care, knowledge, and a whole lot of heart.
