I am a midwife who believes childbirth is a normal life process. I hope that I can walk alongside you and your whānau on your journey through pregnancy, labour and the early weeks of your new baby’s life. I hope to be able to arm you with the knowledge and awareness to enable your birthing experience to be a positive, well supported, well informed journey that is individual to your needs.

My clinic space is in Hamilton on Mondays & Wednesdays. I support whānau to birth at our local birth centres, at home, or at Waikato Hospital if the need arises. I take a small caseload, and work in partnership with Ange Kingi whom your care will be shared with as we work in a week on/week off capacity. This ensures regular time for ourselves to recharge while allowing safe and effective practice for the whānau we care for.

I would love to guide you along your journey.

All enquiries, please email babycatcherjo@gmail.com. For the best response, it is important to include your estimated due date (or the first day of your last period), what number baby this is for you, where you live, and it's also helpful if you would like to include a brief summary of any previous birth experiences. I look forward to hearing from you.
