CARE PHILOSOPHY

I truly believe in empowering women through evidence-based knowledge, so that they are able to make informed choices about themselves and their baby, before, during and after birth. The expertise of an independent midwife provides an environment for the woman and her partner to take responsibility for the birth of their own baby.

I am committed to the belief that midwifery care is a trusting partnership of equals between a woman and her midwife.

I believe that women should be enabled to give birth to healthy babies in a normal, safe and satisfying way in a place of their choice, whether that be a homebirth or a hospital birth.

Fundamental to my practice is the acknowledgement of the unique an extraordinary journey that is pregnancy and birth, and the transition into parenthood.

I have faith in the ability of a woman's body to birth her baby through intuition, trust and knowledge.

I'm also committed to physiological, non-intervention birth where appropriate and my practice is underpinned by offering continuity of carer, respecting informed choice, and providing a sensitive, personalised and flexible approach to individualised care.
