​We will have an initial (free of charge) meeting, in person or by zoom, to see whether we are the right fit and to answer any initial questions.   If you are happy to go ahead, we can look forward to working together so you feel secure and confident about your upcoming birth. After signing the contract I will be available every day to answer your questions or any concerns by text or phone. Around week 30 and 35 we will set up 2x 2hr pre-birth preparation sessions. We'll discuss your birth preferences and I'll ensure your plan is shared with your care provider and is communicated ahead of the birth. I will be on call for you from 10 days before your baby’s due date, whenever that may happen - day or night.​ We will be in phone contact as soon as labour begins and I will arrive within 1 hour as soon as you feel you need me. I will attend your birth to support you in any way I can, and remind you of all you have learned. I will stay with you until your baby is born and for the first few hours after birth (or when you feel ready), to help you get comfortable and establish feeding. We will then have a postnatal visit to see how things have been and to help you prepare for the coming weeks with your new baby.
