The Reason Behind It All

Sacred Six Birth Education was inspired by the need for inclusive, holistic birth education that honours every family's birth plan. After birthing five children, it wasn't until the sixth that the beauty, strength and empowerment of a truly supported birth was fully known. That final experience lit a fire - a realisation that every family deserves access to education, support and the opportunity to approach birth with confidence and calm. Sacred Six Birth Education exists to honour that truth and to offer others what was so deeply longed for in earlier journeys: knowledge, choice and a space to feel held throughout one of life's most powerful transitions.

The Impact I Dream Of

At Sacred Six Birth Education, my vision is to inspire a shift in how families approach and experience birth. Through the evidence-based Lamaze principles - rooted in supporting physiology along with informed choice - the aim is to empower families and their support people with the knowledge to feel more confident along with the tools to navigate labour and birth with clarity and peace. No matter the intended place of birth, the hope is to foster a more inclusive, respectful birth culture where every family feels empowered to make decisions that align with their values and needs.

"Creating change through birth education, one family at time."

Meet Your Educator

Krystal Dicketts, RN, RM, LCCE

I am a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator (LCCE), Registered Nurse (RN) and Registered Midwife (RM) committed to transforming lives through cultivating birth education to achieve the most positive and fulfilling birth experience. My classes are grounded in evidenced-based practice and align with the Lamaze Six Healthy Birth Practices, offering effective tools and information to help parents feel prepared and confident as they approach birth and early parenthood.

 

My journey to Sacred Six Birth Education was shaped by my deep desire to take on a meaningful role in healthcare, a calling that's been part of me since an early age. Originally from the United States, I entered the healthcare field as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and went on to earn my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. During my studies in 2005, I came to Australia as part of a student exchange program, where I met my husband. After serving 6 years in the United States Air Force and traveling throughout the U.S. and East Asia, we moved to Australia in 2012 to start the next chapter of our lives and expand our family. Now a mother to six, I bring both personal insight and a deep respect for the diversity of birth experiences.
