antenatal - postnatal shared care

Midwifery care to support you through pregnancy and postpartum alongside your hospital journey

You might be planning a hospital birth but still feel like something about standard care doesn’t feel quite right.


Maybe you’ve noticed:

  • appointments feel brief or rushed 
  • there isn’t always space to ask deeper questions 
  • decisions are presented quickly without much time to process 
  • care can feel fragmented rather than continuous 


And yet, you value your experience.
You want to feel informed, supported, and actively involved in your care.

There is a way to feel more held within the system.


The hospital system plays an important role in maternity care but it isn’t designed for continuity.
It isn’t designed for long, personalised conversations.

And often, women are left navigating decisions without the time, space, or support to fully understand them. This is where shared care can change your experience.


Shared care means you continue your hospital-based care while also receiving private midwifery support alongside it.

I walk with you through your pregnancy and postpartum, offering continuity, relationship-based care, deeper conversations, and personalised guidance that complements the care you receive within the system.


Imagine:

  • having the time to ask every question without feeling rushed 
  • understanding your options before you’re asked to make decisions 
  • feeling confident navigating appointments, recommendations, and policies 
  • being fully supported in your postpartum recovery, rather than just having boxes ticked 


In this space, my role is to:

  • provide evidence-based information to support you in navigating your journey within the hospital system 
  • help you understand the difference between policy, preference, and evidence 
  • support you in making decisions that align with your values 
  • offer continuity in a system where care can feel fragmented 


I am not here to replace your hospital team but to ensure you feel informed, supported, and centred within it.


Your care includes:

  • Regular antenatal visits in the comfort of your own home 
  • Birth education and preparation 
  • Support to navigate appointments and recommendations 
  • Personalised guidance throughout pregnancy and postpartum 
  • Postnatal visits focused on your recovery, feeding, and adjustment 
  • Ongoing support via phone and text 


This care may be right for you if you:

  • are planning a hospital birth but want more personalised support 
  • value midwifery knowledge and continuity of care 
  • want to feel confident and informed in your decisions 
  • are willing to invest in the quality of your care experience 


Investment:
Initial booking appointment - $250 (approx. $110 rebate)

90 minute antenatal appointment - $160 (approx. rebate $110)

90 minute care plan appointment - $350 (approx. rebate $316)
90 minute postnatal appointment - $175 (approx. rebate $160)


Birth is not just about bringing a baby into the world.
It’s about how a woman is held as she becomes a mother.


I offer a free 30-minute virtual information call. A space to connect, ask questions, and feel into whether this support is right for you.
