Private Midwifery Care

From January 2027, I'll be offering private postnatal midwifery care in your home after your baby is born.

​

The early weeks are a big adjustment. This care gives you time with a midwife who comes to you, so you can ask questions and be looked after in your own space.

​

What's included:

​

• Checks on your recovery and wellbeing

• Checks on your baby's/babies' feeding, weight and general health

• Feeding support, whether you're chestfeeding/breastfeeding, expressing, formula feeding or mixed feeding

• Emotional support

• A birth debrief, if you'd like to talk through your birth

​

How it works

Care is offered as a single visit, or as a package of 3 or 5 visits. Visits can be spread over up to 6 weeks after your baby is born. The first visit can usually be arranged within a few days of coming home. Each visit is about 90 minutes, and you can contact me between visits by phone or message if you have questions.

​

​

Who it's for

Support is for all parents, birthing and non-birthing alike and your baby/babies.

​

About me

I'm a midwife, and I've cared for women and families in both private and public settings, in several countries. I'm also a clinical educator, and I have additional training in perinatal mental health.

The weeks after a baby arrives matter, and so do the people looking after you. I want you to feel listened to and well supported at home, in whatever way suits you and your family. I wanted to offer this care because families often tell me the support they needed most came after the birth, once everyone had gone home.

Where I travel and fees

I visit homes within Melbourne's metropolitan area. A small travel fee applies for homes more than 15km from the CBD.
