FAQs
What is your midwifery philosophy?
Woman-centred, respectful, trusting and always with kindness. These are the core values at the base of what I offer in my midwifery services. I provide my clients with space to feel held, guided and supported throughout pregnancy, birth and into motherhood.
Do you only offer homebirth support?
No I support my clients to birth where they feel is the best and most appropriate option for them.
Many people chose to birth at home and be in the safety of their own environment. But sometimes choice or circumstance may mean that isn’t always the ideal place to be. I can support you birthing in hospital but as I do not work directly for the NHS, I am unable to provide clinical care in a hospital setting.
Do you work with the NHS?
As an independent midwife I work outside of NHS policy and management. However I have an ongoing open relationship with local NHS services and work collaboratively together with families to facilitate choice and support inline with your needs and wishes. You may wish to access NHS care alongside independent midwifery or you may choose not to. This can be discussed together in further detail together.
What areas do you cover?
I live in South Bristol, UK and provide care within a one hour drive of Bristol City Centre. I can travel to surrounding counties (additional mileage costs may apply).
Can I have a chat about my options?
Yes! I offer a free, no obligation phonecall to discuss and explore if this feels like the right fit for you. Get in touch to arrange.
