Private Midwifery Care

I grew up in Germany. When I was 19 I emigrated and went to Uni in NZ. In private practice, I worked in rural NZ for three years doing home and hospital births. 

I have now been living and working in Western Australia for 10 years. 

I have 2 children who were born here. 

"All women deserve women centred, respectful care 

that recognises them as the expert 

regarding their body and baby"

If a woman doesn't look like a goddess during labour, then someone isn't treating her right

I want all women feeling safe physically and psychologically, with enough information to give proper informed consent and to make choices that feel right for their family. I see myself as a guardian of the goddess giving birth. 

I am an endorsed midwife, able to provide full pregnancy care, including ordering blood test and ultrasounds, referrals if needed. 

I am trained in normal births, water births and in a supportive role during complicated birth eg caesarean births. I can cannulate and suture. I am competent in basic life support and neonatal resuscitation. With extensive breastfeeding education experience I am currently working towards my lactation consultant accreditation. 

For up to 6 weeks I can give postnatal care including mum and baby checks and emotional support. 

I am registered with medicare and insured for antenatal and postnatal care.
