Kia ora, I work in with the wider Choice Midwifery group but take a small primarily homebirth caseload of 12-20 births per year. I strongly believe in your right to lead your care and make your own informed decisions. I have plenty of experience caring for whānau birthing at home, have worked with people from many different cultural backgrounds, as well as with those in the Rainbow community. I have worked as a remote rural, primary, and occasionally tertiary hospital midwife, and now work in urban Dunedin. On your journey, I encourage you to use whichever therapies you want, to help achieve a safe & memorable birth experience. We own 3 modern birth pools which we loan out to clients. I am happy to recommend different holistic practitioners locally. I provide shared care with the obstetric and paediatric teams if and when the need arises. We pride ourselves on being clinically up-to-date and having a solid, evidence-based practice. I have a wee boy called Bowie and co-Chair the local College chapter.
