Why do women choose Private Midwifery Care?
The short answer is because every woman deserves to experience respectful, kind and personalised maternity care. We know that continuity of midwifery care offers the best outcomes and is considered the gold standard of care in Australia. You can learn more about this evidence here.
If you are wondering whether Private Midwifery Care is right for you, here are some reasons you might choose this option:
You’re wishing for gentle, kind support from a midwife who takes the time to find out what’s important to you.
You’d like to experience care that always holds you at the centre, that helps you understand your options and respects your freedom to choose.
You want pregnancy and postnatal care to feel like a family experience - that includes your partner and little one in visits too.
You want to be cared for by a midwife in your own community, who can see you in your home, in her clinic or on the phone - you choose.
You’ve experienced a challenging birth or early postpartum previously, and you want to explore how to do it differently this time.
You’re pregnant for the first time, and you and your partner want to feel more confident navigating the maternity system with someone you know and trust guiding you.
You’re finding breastfeeding way harder than you thought it would be, and you need clear, consistent help to get it right.
You’re feeling wobbly and overwhelmed adjusting to parenting in the early days and weeks after birth, and you want a midwife you know, and who knows you, to help you find your way.
You want to have the best chance of feeling satisfied with your pregnancy, birth and early parenting experiences.
You can experience all of these and more with private midwifery care, AND get Medicare rebates for each visit!
If you have private health insurance midwifery care may also be covered (contact your insurance company to check).
