Kia ora and congratulations on your hapūtanga/pregnancy.
I am a midwife based in Ōtautahi/Christchurch and a māmā to 4 beautiful children aged 11, 14, 15 and 24. With varying pregnancy and childbirth experiences of my own, I bring a wealth of knowledge, empathy and compassion to my practice.
Whānau describe me as calm and confident and these qualities are important during this significant time in your life. My commitment is to empower wāhine and whānau by sharing knowledge and information needed so that informed decisions can be made by you, specific to you. I respect the choices of wāhine and whānau and I will support you to birth where you feel most comfortable.
I provide the full continuum of care throughout pregnancy, birth and the postnatal time. I work in an established practice with experienced and supportive midwives, and my clinics are held on Monday afternoons and Wednesday mornings at 158 Main North Road, Papanui.
If you would like me to be your midwife or to ask any questions then please enquire below. Alternatively you can text my mobile, Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. When texting, please include your name, due date, what number baby this is for you, where you live, and the best way to contact you. I’ll do my best to get back to you during business hours.
