I am a midwife with over 30 years experience; originally from England, I have been in NZ and living in Franklin since 2003.

I provide care for women living in Franklin area, supporting flexible pregnancy care which meets your needs and helps you achieve a healthy outcome for both you and your baby.

Pregnancy is a normal life event and as such I support primary birthing and keeping birth normal, including home birth. But I also believe in continuity even if primary care is not how your pregnancy/birth works out. This is your experience and I am here to inform, advise and support you.

Under the group name of Charisma Midwifery Collective, I work with three other midwives and a small pool of locum midwives, who may contribute to your care where appropriate. We share the same philosophy and take regular time off to sustain our own wellbeing.

You can contact me by text, telephone or e-mail; let me know where you live and when your baby is due. I will let you know if I am available then we can discuss your care and arrange an appointment.
