Congratulations on your pregnancy, my name is Nicci and I work alongside women and families based in Queenstown and the surrounding local area. I provide women-centred, supportive, evidence-based holistic care that allows you to make informed decisions during your pregnancy journey. My passion is primary, home, and water birth, empowering women to birth where they feel safe, through shared knowledge and provision of clinically safe care. If you or your baby require specialist obstetric care, this is completed in collaboration with Invercargill or Dunedin Hospital teams as required.

Prior to midwifery, I was an employed paramedic for 18 years, delivering babies in a variety of situations and settings. Being a mum myself I love that I have the privilege to be with families experiencing the joy and excitement of pregnancy and childbirth.

I work with a wonderful group of highly respected and experienced midwives, Keri, Grace and Tomoko, and together we make up the small team from Whakatipu Midwives. We are all based here in Queenstown and offer pregnancy care including preconception, antenatal, labour, birth and postnatal care. Midwifery care is provided 24/7 as clinically indicated and discussed with you more at the time of booking. The best way to contact me is via email nicci.fahey@gmail.com or if you prefer, please fill in the below form. I look forward to meeting you soon. Best wishes, Nicci Fahey RM BM PGCertMid
