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.
