About Me
​
As a qualified midwife and a mother of three I can offer you expertise, knowledge, experience and support. I am passionate about excellent postnatal care, specialising in the care of new mothers and babies, encompassing their whole well being.
Working for several years as a community Midwife, I have experienced the desperation some women feel when becoming a mother, which led me to believe that through excellent postnatal care, delivered to a high standard, with passion, we could help improve a mother’s wellbeing, enabling mothers to gain confidence in their choices they make,
Postnatal care’s goal is to gently support women in finding their own voice and joy in motherhood.
The first few weeks at home with a newborn baby can be very challenging, sometimes lonely and frightening. Most first-time mothers question their ability and doubt themselves. My role as your midwife is to provide a relationship and space where you can share those feelings and concerns, feel heard and understood, I will encourage and support you, helping you gain confidence in your new role.
