Antenatal care service

These appointments take place in your own home. During these appointments, you will never feel rushed. In addition to clinical care, I will take the time to chat with you to answer all your questions and to make sure you are doing well both physically and emotionally. I will be the midwife you can laugh with and the shoulder you can cry on or rest on.

YOUR PRIVATE MIDWIFE

Antenatal care is strongly recommended during pregnancy to ensure the wellbeing of both you and your baby, as well as to provide information about your birthing choices and options. I understand that this can be a mix of excitement and anxiety for you, and my goal is to provide expert care to ensure a positive pregnancy and birth experience.

I conduct all antenatal appointments in your home. The frequency of appointments is generally every 4 weeks until 28 weeks of pregnancy, every 2 weeks until 36 weeks of pregnancy, and then weekly until birth.

Outside of these appointments, if you have any questions or just need a chat I will be available on the phone during the day from 9am to 6pm.

Get your free Giving birth guide

This short guide will help you find out more about the different phases you will go through during the birth of your child. I’m making it available to you so that you can read it at your leisure and discuss it with your partner.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to take notes and I’ll take the time to answer them with you and go into more depth on the subject of birth.

Thank you for giving me the confidence to pursue the natural birth we wanted, for being such a calm, kind presence during the birth and for supporting me so well in the postnatal period. You always made me feel that we had choices, and you were so non-judgemental and supportive. Your lovely smile, great hugs and kind words made such a difference to me.
Thank You for making our third and final birth experience so positive and special.
You’re amazing and I will never forget you!
