Private Midwifery Care in Perth
Personalised pregnancy, birth and postnatal care with continuity from a known, experienced midwife — supporting both homebirth and hospital birth.
A model of care that combines clinical expertise with relationship-based support — so you feel informed, supported and consistently cared for throughout your journey.
A Different Model of Maternity Care
Private midwifery care focuses on continuity — meaning you are supported by the same midwife throughout pregnancy, labour, birth and the postnatal period.
Rather than seeing multiple providers, you develop a trusted relationship with a midwife who understands your history, preferences and individual needs.
Care is personalised, unrushed and responsive — supporting both clinical safety and emotional wellbeing.
This model supports both planned homebirth and hospital birth, depending on your preferences and clinical circumstances.
Many women are navigating a system not designed for continuity
- Limited access to continuity models
- Uncertainty about who will attend their birth
- Short, fragmented appointments
- Conflicting advice across providers

Your care, from Pregnancy to Postpartum
Pregnancy Care
Regular antenatal visits, monitoring wellbeing, education and preparation for birth.
Birth Care
Continuous support during labour and birth — at home or in hospital — with a known midwife.
Postnatal Care
In-home visits through to 6 weeks postpartum, including recovery, newborn care and feeding support.
Safety, Assessment and Informed Decision-Making
Care is grounded in clinical assessment, ongoing review and evidence-based practice.
Planned homebirth is offered for women who meet appropriate clinical criteria and is supported by research and professional guidance.
Care includes:
• Individual assessment
• Ongoing monitoring
• Planning for different scenarios
• Integration with hospital services if required
Integrated Breastfeeding and Postnatal Support
As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), feeding support is integrated into your care — not an additional service.
This allows for early identification and management of feeding challenges, with ongoing support during the postpartum period.
