Kia ora and congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am a mum of two and have been working as a Midwife in various settings (hospital and community) for almost 20 years, supporting families as they journey to parenthood.

My role in this journey is to work in partnership with you to provide individualised and safe care. My aim is to empower you to make informed decisions that will suit you and your family. I provide care through pregnancy, birth (including waterbirths, Epidural care, elective Caesareans etc.), and up to six weeks postnatally. I will support women to birth wherever they feel most comfortable whether this be at home, Bethlehem Birthing Centre or at Tauranga hospital.

I work with a wonderful back up midwife Siobhan O'Sullivan and we cover each other for alternate weekends off and holidays.

My antenatal clinics are held on a Wednesday morning in Hairini. The best way to contact me is via email midwifecarmen@gmail.com
