Kia ora,

Congratulations on your pregnancy – such an exciting and special time as you prepare to welcome a new baby into your family.

I believe women should feel in control of their childbirth experience and supported to make decisions that are right for them. My role is to walk alongside you, offering guidance, information, and support so you can make informed, safe choices and feel confident in your journey through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

I provide continuity of care as your Lead Maternity Carer, looking after you from early pregnancy through to 4–6 weeks after your baby is born. I’ll see you throughout your pregnancy, be there to support you during labour and birth, and continue with home visits once baby arrives. I aim to provide care that is personalised, supportive, and shaped around what matters most to you.

I support births at home or at Jean Todd Maternity Unit, and cover Timaru, north to the Rangitata, and inland through Pleasant Point to Fairlie.

My main clinic is in Washdyke on Tuesdays (9am–2pm), with a Geraldine option available You can reach me by text at 027 340 3991, email me at midwife.caitlyn@gmail.com, or use the form below. I reply to all enquiries and do my best to get back to you as soon as possible. When contacting me, it is helpful to include your name, estimated due date (or last menstrual period), the area you live in, and which number baby you are having and any other information you may want to share.
