Wooden Birth Stool
Introducing The Gaia Stool
Australia’s first adjustable-angle wooden birth stool – thoughtfully crafted with the birthing mother in mind.
Designed to honour the instinctive wisdom of labouring bodies, The Gaia Stool features a smooth, wide seat with two interchangeable leg sets, allowing for a gentle forward incline, decline or a flat, grounded position. The Gaia Stool can be used in hospital, at home, or in a birth centre, to support upright, open pelvic positioning without compromising on comfort or beauty.
Handmade locally in South Australia, The Gaia Stool is not mass produced. It’s intentionally designed, from the detachable legs for easy transport, to the engraved timber finish. Every detail reflects our belief that birth furniture should be as sacred, adaptable and strong as the women who use it.
We’re currently offering The Gaia Stool for hire to Adelaide residents only. If you’re a birth worker and would like to enquire about purchasing a Gaia Stool, please contact us here.
The Gaia Stool
- Adjustable incline with two leg sets for flat or forward-tilted positions (8° tilt ideal for labour)
- Compact & portable design with easily detachable legs — perfect for homebirth or on-call midwives
- Handcrafted Australian made from solid timber with a smooth, sealed finish — strong, durable, and easy to clean
- Thoughtfully designed seat: wide, curved for comfort, and 5 cm thick for sturdy, grounded support
- Aesthetic design, without skimping on functionality — blends into your sacred space or living room
The Gaia Stool is thoughtfully designed to support your body’s natural instinct to move, lean, and ground during labour. Its gentle forward tilt encourages upright, open pelvic positioning to promote comfort, confidence, and progress.
Crafted from solid, sealed timber with curved edges and engraved details, it’s a beautiful alternative to clinical plastic which is perfect for sacred birth spaces or professional settings.
Ethically made in Australia and built to last, The Gaia Stool is sturdy, adjustable, and easy to assemble. Whether you’re birthing at home, in a birth centre, or packing it for hospital, it travels with you. Hire it for one birth, or own it as a lasting part of your motherhood journey.
You’re not just buying a tool – you’re investing in a conscious, grounded birth.
