Kia Ora and congratulations! I am a midwife providing care in the Nelson/Tasman region. I provide midwifery care throughout pregnancy, labour and birth and the first 6 weeks postnatally. I believe that pregnancy is a normal life event and I aim to use a holistic approach to midwifery to help families achieve a positive experience throughout my care. I use current and evidence-based information to support you in making empowered choices that are right for you. Each family and each pregnancy is unique and I want to support you to achieve the experience that you want. I am passionate about providing safe and affirming midwifery care and aim to form meaningful partnerships with families.

I have a clinic space in both Richmond and Motueka where I provide antenatal care. I am happy to support labour and birth in Nelson hospital, Motueka maternity or at home.

I look forward to meeting you!

I am currently on maternity leave and will be back November 2026, antenatal bookings and care will be done by one of my colleagues before then. Please fill out the enquiry form below to enquire, I will not be regularly responding to text messages until November. Please include your name, the area you live in and due date, I will get back to you as soon as I can. If I have provided care to you previously, please contact even if it says I am not available, we will do our best to fit you in.
