Kia ora and congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am a mum of two and have been working as a Midwife in various settings (hospital and community) for almost 20 years, supporting families as they journey to parenthood.

My role in this journey is to work in partnership with you to provide individualised and safe care. My aim is to empower you to make informed decisions that will suit you and your family. I provide care through pregnancy, birth (including waterbirths, Epidural care, elective Caesareans etc.), and up to six weeks postnatally. I will support women to birth wherever they feel most comfortable whether this be at Bethlehem Birthing Centre or at Tauranga hospital.

I not only provide comprehensive maternity care but am also trained to offer Mirena and Jadelle insertions free of charge for convenient, long-term contraception after birth.

I work with a wonderful back up midwife Siobhan O'Sullivan and we cover each other for alternate weekends off and holidays.

My antenatal clinics are on Wednesdays at 814 Cameron Road, Tauranga 3112 The best way to contact me is via email midwifecarmen@gmail.com
