Currently booking till early December, then following new years.

Kia ora and congratulations on your pregnancy. My name is Bonnielee Bell and I am a Māori self-employed midwife who descends from Ngāpuhi and Ngāti Maniapoto.

My philosophy is birth is a normal, natural occurring event and therefore provide a focus on PRIMARY care for women who have an uncomplicated pregnancy, labour and birth and wish to birth at either Papakura or Ngahau Primary Birthing Units. Whilst caring for you throughout your pregnancy, my role is to provide continuity of care from the time we register together to supporting you during your natural labour and birth. Following the birth of your baby we will continue this partnership until 5-6 weeks postnatal. Throughout this time, together we will work in partnership where I will support and educate you to be an active participant in your journey.

My antenatal clinic is held on Mondays at Papakura Birthing Unit:

2 Clevedon Road Papakura and my back-up partner is Dena Black.
