Nga Mihi Nui Ki A Koutou

Kia Ora. I am a midwife with 17 years experience, currently working as an independent LMC providing full midwifery care throughout your pregnancy journey. Before my wonderful path into the world of midwifery I worked as a registered nurse; both in the community as a Plunket nurse and at the Christchurch Public Hospital in an acute surgical orthopaedic ward. I am a mother of four; my eldest daughter is studying at University, my second daughter is in secondary school, my son is at intermediate and my youngest daughter in pre-school. I believe that birth is an extraordinary life event and look forward to sharing this amazing experience with you, of bringing new life into our world.
