Welcome to Juno birthAs an independent midwife, I provide flexible, one-to-one care, adapted to your needs, through the transitions of pregnancy, birth and afterwards. By giving you and your partner as much time and information as you need, I encourage you to be active participants in decision-making about birth and early parenting. At each appointment I devote time to discussing nutrition, exercise, wellbeing, birth preparation and newborn care. I am trained and skilled in detecting any deviations from normal in both mother and baby and in such situations I refer to an appropriate physician. When labour begins, I support and care for you until your baby is born, in whichever setting you choose. The professional relationship formed with you during pregnancy provides a strong foundation to enable the normal, healthy processes of giving birth. I am trained in labour support techniques and am also prepared to use emergency measures when necessary. In the first weeks of your baby's life I provide home visits to ensure you receive the support you need with breastfeeding and early parenting. Informed choice is a fundamental principle of midwifery care in and is an important part of antenatal visits. It is my role to provide you with the information and evidence necessary to make choices for you and your family however you are the primary decision-maker, in control of your own care. |
