Peowhairangi Midwives practice duo Alaina H. & Justine O, share the responsibilities of providing your care. We work across Kaeo/Kerikeri/Paihia areas, with clinics for wellness check ups in pregnancy, then home visits until around 5 wks after your baby is born. We hold similar midwifery philosophies to guide you through your maternity to parenthood transition with lots of information sharing and education. We support low risk women to birth in primary care settings (at home or BOI Hospital Kawakawa). If needed we will transfer with you through to Te Kotuku Maternity Unit, Whangārei Base Hospital. We aim to enable you to make informed choices about your care, working in partnership with you. If you or your baby need specialist care you will be offered consultation with an obstetrician, while remaining with us for routine midwifery cares. Maternity services are free in NZ (excl scan surcharge) for those eligible, throughout pregnancy, labour & birth, and up to 4-6 wks after baby is born.

Please give us a call on 027 5500166 during business hours, that’s the best way to reach us. We only have the one phone number so whichever one of us is on call at the time will take your call and arrange a booking appointment if we are available. Or we will make other arrangements, such as, refer you on to another midwife that may be available or to our local maternity unit that can help you. You can email using the form on this website. We will be in touch as soon as we are able.
