Kia ora!

I have been attending births for over a decade, and have been a midwife since the beginning of 2016. Throughout this time I have provided holistic and gentle midwifery care to hundreds of māmā and pēpi with excellent outcomes. I have practiced in rural areas, primary birthing units, tertiary hospital settings, and at homebirths. These days, I take a part-time caseload and focus my midwifery care on māmā who are seeking to birth at home. I support you and provide high-quality info so that you can make whatever choices feel right for yourself and your whanau.

I have two children of my own, born in 2021 & 2023. I co-own the Choice Midwifery practice here in Ōtepoti Dunedin and work in with a few different midwives who provide back-up care to my clients, mainly Aroha Port and Emma Kirk. I run private antenatal classes as an educator. I have also been involved in the New Zealand College of Midwives as a Chairwoman and have worked a little as a lecturer/kaiako at the local School of Midwifery.

You can email me via the form on this page. My working hours for non-urgent visits are 10-2pm, Mon-Fri, with weekends reserved for urgent visits. Please note I do not offer routine (non-urgent) visits on the weekends, or in the evenings. Please let me know your estimated due date, any important medical/pregnancy conditions that may affect your early pregnancy (if you feel comfortable to share with me in an enquiry - this will help me to make sure I schedule your first visit in an appropriate time-frame), your plans for birth, and what number baby/pēpi this will be for you.
