Congratulations on your pregnancy!

My name is Viv, I am a registered midwife based in Botany and I am passionate about providing midwifery care to women in my local community. As a mum of two boys, I believe pregnancy and childbirth are the most extraordinary and rewarding times in a woman’s life.

I practise in partnership with women and their whānau by providing continuity of midwifery care throughout pregnancy, labour, birth, and the postnatal period, always with kindness and respect to individual cultural and religious beliefs. I see childbirth as a normal physiological event and I strive to protect and promote it by empowering women and their families into making informed decisions towards their maternity care, using my skills and knowledge towards keeping both mother and baby safe during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.

I work with two extremely caring and highly experienced midwives as backup to support you and your whānau in your journey to parenthood.
