Kia ora, and congratulations on your pregnancy.

I am a newly graduated midwife providing care for whānau in central Tauranga and surrounding areas. I provide full antenatal, labour and birth, and postnatal care.

As a new graduate, I bring plenty of experience, having completed over 2,400 hours of clinical practice. In my first year of practice, I am fully supported by an experienced mentor, meaning you benefit from the care and guidance of two midwives working together.

My practice is grounded in safe, evidence-based, and holistic care. I am passionate about supporting normal physiological birth and ensuring you feel informed, confident, and empowered. Should complications arise, I work closely with multidisciplinary teams to provide safe, responsive care aligned with your values.

My clinic runs on Wednesdays at the Midwives Hub in Hairini.

I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you on this journey.
