Enhanced Antenatal Care
Pregnancy can be both an exciting and anxious time. My aim is to provide you with expert care and information to help you feel safe, relaxed and confident throughout. You may be seeking reassurance; have a list of questions you’d like to go through or simply want more time with a midwife. This service compliments the care you are already receiving from your existing NHS maternity or private obstetric care provider.

Early pregnancy check-up, advice, and reassurance

Postnatal Care
Care and support after your baby has arrived is vital for the wellbeing of the whole family. Over the years postnatal care from the NHS has greatly reduced meaning midwives can’t always provide the time that mothers so greatly need.
​
You may be having difficulties feeding, would like to check your baby’s weight or seek reassurance on your recovery from birth. Private postnatal midwifery appointments take place in your own home and last as long as you need, giving you the opportunity to gain unhurried care and support as you adjust to new life with your baby.
What’s included in a Postnatal Midwifery appointment?
-
Mother and Baby Wellbeing Examination

Intensive Feeding Support and Feeding Plan
