Kia ora and welcome :)

I’m a married mum of three awesome little humans and it was my own experiences of becoming a parent that inspired me to become a midwife. Those journeys showed me just how powerful, vulnerable, and transformative this time can be - and it’s a privilege to now walk alongside women and whānau through their own experiences.

My practice is grounded in partnership. I believe in building genuine relationships based on trust, respect, and open communication. I’m here to listen, support, and make sure you feel informed and confident in the decisions you make about your pregnancy, birth, and postnatal care.

I truly believe in the strength, intelligence and wisdom of women’s bodies and the incredible capability each woman holds. Whether you’re planning a homebirth or hospital birth, I will support you to create a calm, safe, and empowering environment where you feel seen, heard, and respected.

If you think I will be a good fit for you and your whānau, pop your details in the enquiry form at the bottom of this page. Alternatively, you can email me direct at amysandfordmidwife@gmail.com Please include some info about yourself, what number baby this is for you, your estimated due date or first day of your last period, as well as any other info you think is relevant or wish to share with me. I have a shared clinic space in New Plymouth, and as Inglewood is where I call home, I love to support whānau across the wider Taranaki region as well. I’m happy to discuss visit options whether that's in clinic or home visits and work together to ensure care is accessible for all whānau. Wherever you are in Taranaki - out the coast, down south in Stratford, Hawera, out Waitara or Urenui or anywhere in between, I look forward to supporting you and your whānau through this next chapter.
