My Philosophy

I am passionate about midwifery and work independently because I found this to be the best way to provide individualised, mother and family-centred care to my clients. Since each mother has differing needs, I believe that the process from conception towards parenthood should be based on an holistic approach and the support I provide demonstrates this. By working as an Independent midwife I am able to utilise my skills and expertise and provide one-to-one individualised care to mothers and their families.

As an experienced midwife and a Reiki practitioner, I utilise various skills to assist women in labour, such as Shiatsu techniques, massage and Reiki. I have knowledge of homeopathic remedies and aromatherapy oils that can be used to help women in labour. I am happy to work with alternative health practitioners.

I provide a supportive, nurturing and informative environment for my clients. I believe in offering freedom of choice by involving parents in all parts of the decision making process regarding their pregnancy and its progression towards parenthood.

In essence then I fulfil my role as a midwife by:-

  Meeting the needs of mothers through

  Individualised care. To do this I

  Develop trusting relationships with parents, promoting

  Women centred care. As a midwife I am able to

  Instruct women in my care on aspects of labour and delivery.

  Facilitate the progression of their pregnancy and birth as well as

   Educate on aspects of health of mother and baby.
