Congratulations on your pregnancy. I am a midwife with Queenstown Lakes Midwifery, I have 3 children & a gorgeous granddaughter who was born here in Queenstown.

As a midwife I have the privilege of being part of a woman's & a family's journey from the beginning, I believe in providing in partnership with you woman-centred holistic midwifery care that is supportive, safe & individualised. I have practised Midwifery in a variety of settings from a rural base hospital as a core midwife, to a large tertiary hospital birthing unit - including high risk continuity care.

I am a Lactation Consultant board certified since 2007. I am a Registered Nurse & previously had various nursing roles predominately in child & family health: the NNU Southland Hospital, Public Health Nurse Qtown & Plunket Nurse Qtown. Queenstown Lakes Midwifery are a small supportive team of midwives, we cover each other for days off and leave, this enables safe, 24/7 midwifery care.

I offer preconception and early pregnancy care. I provide antenatal, labour & birth and postnatal care in the Wakatipu area. I am very supportive of where you choose to birth, I do not travel out of area, however I provide safe effective continuity with midwives out of area for your labour and birth care should you choose to birth at a secondary or tertiary unit. If your pregnancy care requires an obstetrician I can refer and work closely in collaboration with the obstetric teams at Southland and Dunedin Hospitals. Please contact me if you have any further questions and you would like to discuss your care, I am very happy to answer questions about your care and pregnancy via email before arranging your first appointment with me as your midwife. The best way to contact me is via the "Find Your Midwife" email form below, please email your due date, and your contact details. Look forward to hearing from you - Debbie Jensen RM, RN, BCompN, PGDipMid, PGCert specialty Child & Family Health, IBCLC
