Congratulations on your pregnancy. I am a NZ-trained midwife, long-term Queenstown local and mother of one active teenager who was born in Queenstown. It has been my privilege to support women in Queenstown’s diverse community, having provided midwifery care to the women and their families from 30+ different countries. I am originally from Japan and spent some time in Brazil before moving to Queenstown, then married to my NZ-born husband. I respect each woman’s unique cultural background. If this would be your first pregnancy or you came from another country, you may be unfamiliar with NZ Maternity services. I am pleased to help answer any questions you may have. My aim is to help you enjoy, give you confidence and feel safe during your special journey. I look forward to supporting you and your family to achieve a positive birth experience. (Portuguese) Parabéns pela sua gravidez. Eu morei em Campinas, São Paulo por um ano. Adorei a experiência e a cultura. Entendo português e falo um pouco.(日本語) お気軽にお問合せ下さい

Please contact me via the following enquiry form or email to tomokoclark.midwife@gmail.com. Please include your full name, contact number, estimated due date and the suburb you live in. Alternatively, I am available on my work mobile 022 084 2339 for general enquiries, Mon-Fri, 09:00-17:00.

I work in a supportive team of the Whakatipu Midwives with Keri, Nicci and Grace. I offer full midwifery care throughout the antenatal period, labour & birth and up to six weeks postnatally. I take only a small number of women each month to ensure safe and thorough care with 'continuity'. If any complication arises during your pregnancy or you have any pre-existing medical conditions, I refer you to the Obstetric team in Invercargill/Dunedin and work collaboratively with the Specialist team. I work closely with my midwifery colleagues in the wider Southern region. If you are planning to travel to Invercargill/Dunedin for labour & birth, I am happy to discuss options and help making an individualised plan for you.
