Western Australia

South West corner of Western Australia. I am an Endorsed Midwife in with 20 years experience. My passion is for providing personalised continuity of care for women and their families planning for home or hospital births. I am a passionate VBAC supporter. I also provide comprehensive postnatal care and breastfeeding support.

Geraldton and surrounding areas. As an Endorsed Registered Midwife, I am highly qualified to care for those experiencing a normal pregnancy. I can order, interpret and action tests and investigations in pregnancy, including ultrasounds & prescribe medicines in pregnancy. I practice across the continuum of pregnancy, offering antenatal, labour and birth, and postnatal care and have visiting rights to the local hospital. BYS Midwifery believes pregnant women deserve care from a known and trusted midwife. BYS midwifery also believes in the positive impact of a midwife's presence throughout a pregnancy and birth journey.

Busselton to Augusta and surrounds. I am an NZ trained endorsed midwife with 15 years experience with home and hospital births. I believe in continuity of care being the gold standard and wish every woman had her own midwife. I have extensive knowledge in breastfeeding support and am passionate about mental health. I have been in this area for 10 years now and love working alongside our fantastic doulas, alternative health providers and medical teams if needed.

Northern Perth. No matter what your birth choices or mode of birth, the aim is to begin the journey of parenthood feeling empowered. Hand in Hand Midwives believes this is best achieved by developing a trusting relationship with a midwife that can be there throughout your pregnancy, birth and early postnatal period, listening to you and being your advocate and empowering you to make informed decisions for you and your baby.

To birth well, women need to feel safe and be supported by a caregiver they know and trust. As your primary midwife, I am able to facilitate a birthing environment in which women may be led by their instincts and therefore will be able to trust their bodies to birth effectively. My holistic birth beliefs and knowledge help guide families in achieving the best outcome for mother and baby. I support women who wish to birth at home or within the hospital setting, depending upon their needs.

Perth. My personal philosophy is to support normal birth where possible, offer women information so they can make good choices, to promote self-care relaxation and connection for women and couples in this pivotal period of their life. I have trained as a Hypnobirthing practitioner and I am a qualified clinical reflexologist.

Southern Tasmania. I visit you regularly during your pregnancy, am on call for your labour and birth, and visit often after your baby is born. Visits are in your home. You can contact me between visits with any worries or questions.
