Midwife services
Here for all mums-to-be
There are many benefits to engaging with a midwife through your antenatal journey. Our midwifery service provides you with continuity of care - one health professional who works with you through each trimester and into your post-partum period. Having continuous and personalised care has been shown to improve a mum's comfort level through her pregnancy and into early motherhood.
Our Midwife services can be engaged in conjunction with hospital and GP or shared care models and are available to all expectant parents. This program will work with pregnancies of all care level requirements, including high-risk pregnancies, mums with gestational diabetes or other concerns.
Our midwife does not currently offer birthing support.
