Discharging my final client before starting maternity leave

This month, I discharged a client whom I have cared for from the start of her pregnancy. It was such an honour to support this incredible family on their journey to meeting their gorgeous baby. Being chosen to be the personal midwife of an experienced midwife is very significant, but even more so when she is a dear friend. This was made even more special since we were growing our babies together at the same time 🫶

Independent midwifery care is so enhanced from standard NHS care and is completely personalised to your needs (including sea dips during heat waves!). My care includes complementary therapy treatments, ongoing support by phone and text, attendance at hospital appointments alongside guaranteeing your trusted known midwife for your birth and 6 weeks of postnatal care.

I will be spending some time getting to know my own little one for the rest of 2026 but I look forward to supporting more families in 2027 🩷 My incredible colleague (who happens to be my own midwife too!) Mel Downie @southwest_indiemidwife will be providing IM across Devon and Cornwall in the meantime- get in touch with her to find out how you can access this truly life changing care 🫶
