I provide pregnancy care services for mothers and their families in the Ōrewa, Hibiscus Coast, Silverdale and the wider Northshore area. I am experienced in both natural and medicalised births, and I am passionate about helping mothers feel empowered in this very important life experience. 

My back-up midwife is Kim Haley-George.
