Birth is tough, it’s rough, it’s endurance and takes huge mental strength but it can be, it should be an incredible experience and memory. The best of both worlds is birthing naturally, with one on one midwife led care with a midwife you’ve grown to know and trust through your pregnancy yet for those who prefer, in the safety of a hospital. This is what an alongside hospital midwife birth unit offers.

We can’t go through Christmas without bragging just a little. It’s been a gentle festive season so far with just a few little miracles born over the Christmas period. These are 3 of the 5 we had over this past week. What a Christmas miracle and gift. Congratulations to the new parents and little siblings too. We’ve had such fun being part of your joy.
