Midwife Patricia

Taree & surrounds. I am a woman, midwife, mofher and grandmother. My interest in homebirth began with my first child 37 years ago, since then I have broadened my experience to include lactation consultancy and child health. My midwifery journey began 33 years ago with homebirth dominating the last 17 years. I believe that childbirth is the most important period of transition in a woman's life and the support she gets at this time is pivotal in achieving her desired outcomes and shaping the mother she will become.

All Things Birth

Tere Garnons-Williams

[email protected]
Women are holy in that they take the unknown and bring it into the known. The ability to bring forth the next generation is a gift that allows us the opportunity to expand who we were to become who we need to be. In the becoming, all who are intimately involved and invited into the inner circle become changed. It is my honour to support this transition by holding space, being a sounding board, offering my skills and knowledge and experience.
