Antenatal and Postnatal
The comprehensive care package is the most complete package available. You will receive care from booking your pregnancy at around 8 weeks until your baby is 6 weeks old.
ANTENATAL CARE
If you are just interested in having a midwife support you on the antenatal or postnatal journey only, these packages are for you. You may want an independent midwife for your antenatal and postnatal care if you are having an elective CS or hospital birth, for instance, but wish for a more personalized care. Please note that due to insurance restrictions I cannot offer visits or advice when you are in early labour. An antenatal/postnatal care package can be turned into a birth package subject to availability.
- 15 antenatal appointments (8,12,16,20,24, 28, 31, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 weeks)
- 2 hours long appointments
- Weekend home appointments available
- Support during scans or consultant appointments
- Partner and children welcomed during appointments

- 10 hours of birth preparation tailored to your needs includes a 121 BIOMECHANICS workshop.

POSTNATAL CARE
A postnatal package on its own is a good idea if you need extra support with breastfeeding and the transition to motherhood. For instance, co-sleeping advice, caring for your newborn, cloth nappies, early potty learning/ elimination communication, etc. When you book a package you get a midwife available during working hours to answer all your questions.
