"The way a person gives birth matters. It can affect the whole of the rest of their life." I am an experienced midwife & my particular emphasis is on education to support people's informed choice.

My intention is to provide you with safe midwifery care. Based on researched information to help you make decisions that are best for you & your baby. I believe every birthing person & family are unique. I tailor my midwifery care & information to meet your individual needs.

I think pregnancy & birth for most people are normal processes. They are also life changing events that many families find challenging. My care includes support & education to prepare whānau through these life changes. I offer home & hospital births, with a passion for home-birthing.

I happily offer water birth in all settings.

I support and offer care to the LGBTQIA community.

I am retiring end of March 2027.

Please contact me by phone or text me DURING BUSINESS HOURS ONLY to arrange an obligation free chat. OR contact me through this website by using the form below. I provide midwifery care around Dunedin & I have rooms at 287A South Rd, Caversham, called Midwives on Main Street. From my rooms I provide antenatal care. Home visits by arrangement for women intending to home-birth. Postnatal care is provided in your home. I will ensure you have 24/7 cover for any urgent midwifery matter if I am off-call. I offer confidential FREE pregnancy testing & pre-pregnancy advice. You may find out more about my midwifery practice & philosophy by visiting my website. I am lucky to work with a fabulous back-up midwife, who you will have the opportunity to meet during our journey together. I hold a post-grad certificate in midwifery.
