About me
Kia ora, I relocated to Timaru in 2012 from the North Island. He Mokopuna ahau o Te Whanau ā Apanui me Ngai Tahu me Te Whakatōhea. I am a mother of 4 gorgeous children and also have an amazing husband.
Midwifery is so special to me, I believe that pregnancy is a normal life event that should ultimately result in empowerment for every woman. I enjoy providing safety for the woman, her baby and her whānau, while doing my best to help them achieve their ideal birth experience. As part of my practice, I focus on individual needs and support each woman to choose the best care for her and her baby.
I realise that everyone is different, bringing different values, customs and beliefs. Acknowledging this and planning care to encompass these differences is also my passion, making each woman’s experience individual.
When I am not providing midwifery care, I enjoy being a mum, exercising regularly. I also have an amazing sense of humour and always enjoy a good laugh.
Feel free to phone me on 0211643389. If I cannot take your call or respond to text message immediately, please allow some time for a response - often I am busy and unable to respond immediately. Alternatively my email is Shortymidwife@gmail.com which you can also contact me.
Our clinic “ the midwifery Hubb” located at 300 Hilton highway Washdyke which is where I have pregnancy appointments and my clinic days for routine appointments in pregnancy are Tuesdays and Wednesdays 930am till 300pm .
Looking forward to meeting you.
