Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am a midwife working New Plymouth. My husband and I have 3 primary school aged children who keep us on our toes.

It was through my own journey navigating pregnancy, birth, postpartum & parenting that I found my passion to become a midwife.

I strive to work in partnership with women & whānau creating a professional open-minded relationship based on trust, respect, & honesty.

I believe in providing each māmā individualised care, education, empowering & advocating you to make truly informed choices.

Pregnancy/birth is a normal event and I am passionate about protecting the natural process of birth. However, I recognise that for some this journey may deviate from your original desires.

My goal is for you to look back on your unique experience of bringing new life into this world with admiration of the amazing journey that it is - That you felt heard, supported, safe and well cared for.
