Tertia (Tessa) van der Walt

As childbirth is inherently part of womanhood, it is a privilege to empower and support women to believe in their bodies and gain their own experience in becoming a mother. My desire to help women and to touch women’s lives more tangibly has given me many opportunities – in Kosovo, Palestine, Vanuatu, and others. After my life-changing journey and experience as a mother of four daughters, I found that midwifery fulfilled my wish of enriching women’s lives – one woman, one birth, one positive interaction at a time. Education is one of the most important parts of my care and I am convinced that if you are educated about your choices, you will be able to make healthy, safe decisions for you and your family.I am honoured to walk with you, and together we will strive to make it a memorable and joyful experience. When I’m not busy with Midwifery care, you can find me in the kitchen baking and cooking, in front of my sewing machine or in the gym. Midwifery care also available in the Afrikaans language.
