Description

I trained at Auckland University of Technology, graduating in 2005.  I have had many years of midwifery practice.  As an experienced midwife I provide kind, supportive and informative care to help women experience a safe pregnancy and birth.  

I am a midwife who believes that pregnancy and childbirth is a normal life event for women.  I totally support women to be as healthy as possible so that they can enjoy a straightforward experience.

I will be there with the woman throughout the normal physiological journey with an emphasis on healthy diet and lifestyle, and with me giving you as much support and information as needed. You can be reassured your goals are mine.

If the pregnancy takes a change and needs the Medical Obstetric Team at Auckland City Hospital I will ensure that you are seen appropriately and in a timely manner.

I cover a large area from Panmure, Glen Innes, Mt Wellington, Pakuranga, Howick, Botany and South Auckland. I conduct deliveries at Auckland City Hospital and Birthcare in Parnell.   My back up Midwife is Penelope Harrison

Staying at a birthing centre or hospital after giving birth

Your stay at a birthing centre or hospital after giving birth will usually be up to 2 days, or 2-5 days if you have had a caesarean. During this time you will have regular visits from your midwife and be supported to care and feed your baby. After the birth you will be tired and busy getting to know your new baby. Most women who have had a normal birth stay in the hospital or birth centre from 1-3 days depending on how they feel and how feeding is going for the baby. If you have had a caesarean section, the usual hospital stay is 3-5 days. There may be an option to have your postnatal stay in a primary unit if you have given birth at hospital. Some women choose to go straight home after the birth, this is called a planned early discharge. Talk to your midwife about your postnatal stay and make sure your family know what your plan is.
