Description
I support women to birth at our lovely birthing unit here in Pukekohe, if necessary I can refer to Middlemore for specialist input when needed. I love being a Self Employed Community Midwife and building relationships with my ladies and their families, it's such a privilege to share this journey with you.
Due to the 24/7 nature of midwifery, my team of 5 experienced and diverse midwives at Franklin Midwives work well together to provide support for our women and each other, which in turn enables us to take alternative weekends off to help us maintain a good work/life balance.
I take a small caseload that allows me to provide continuity of care, I also run my clinics at Franklin Midwives Clinic, 5 Glasgow Rd, Pukekohe on Wednesday afternoons and Friday mornings.

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 for 48 hours. 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 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.
