Private Midwives can book women into Westmead Hospital and provide midwifery care for those women who choose to give birth in Westmead hospital or transfer into the hospital from a planned homebirth.

I believe that pregnancy and birth is a normal life event and is an integral part of family life. I have been fortunate to work in partnership with pregnant and birthing families for over 20 years, and exclusively as a midwife in private practice since 2009. I feel passionately that women have the right to informed choice and decision making and informed consent. All care is provided in the woman’s home at a time that is convenient for her and her family.."
