Congratulations. Pregnancy, birth and parenting is an exciting and at times daunting time in a woman's life. My aim is to make sure that you feel respected, listened to and supported throughout this journey. I aim to form a partnership empowering women through education and promoting the health and safety of both the mother and baby. I work alongside three other wonderful midwives who also share this philosophy of care. I work part-time at Taranaki Base Hospital as a Midwife and also am a registered physiotherapist. Most importantly I am a mother to three teenagers and am married to a dairy farmer. I am happy to provide care for rural women and their families as well as those that live in and around New Plymouth.
