For women planning on birthing at home I offer: *A no obligation and free enquiry call to get to know each other, ask questions and discuss how I can support you and your family. Should you choose to book: * I offer pregnancy, birth and postnatal care either in your home by zoom or at a clinic depending on your location. *Your visits are not rushed; we take the time to listen and discuss your options. Your partner or support people are welcome to be present for your visits. *Visits are monthly till 34 weeks, 2 weekly till 38 weeks then weekly till birth, more often if necessary. I will order any bloods, scans, prescriptions and refer you for additional care if required. *Clinical notes are stored on my computer, I will give you a copy, and update this at your visits. *One-to-one education regarding healthy pregnancy, childbirth and parenting preparation will continue throughout your journey, *At 37 weeks I will provide you with a birth pool and liner for labour, a list of supplies you will need to gather for your homebirth. 24 hours on call support for labour and birth. A second Midwife will attend your birth as this is a legal requirement.
