 Topic: Recommendations for a Midwife?
Posted: 23 November 2009 at 9:41pm |

Hi everyone,
Does anyone have any recommendations for a midwife in the Onehunga, Auckland or surrounding suburbs?
I got recommended Star who came highly recommended but she won’t be available in July 2010.
If anyone has any ideas or recommendations please let me know.
Cheers
Susy

Hi Susy,
I am using Paddy Hughes who is based in Onehunga. From my experience with her so far she is fabulous.
God luck

I used Christine Ealson based in Royal/Epsom who was brilliant.

This is the website for the midwifery registry on the NZ midwifery council:http://www.midwiferycouncil.org.nz/main/register/
You can search through every midwife in your are or NZ, see there qualifications and check they haven't ever been in trouble for misconduct and check they have an anual preactise cert.
This is the best place you can look as all NZ midwifes are on it.

I would go with word of mouth over any registry after all its just a list of names..
I travelled all the way to GI to see my midwife as she had delivered nearly half the OB babies lol
But in all honesty, I went to her especially as she had such a good reputation from all the Mums around here.
(Her name is Yvonne Daji and she is at Pregnancy Care Midwives)

You realy need to work out what type of midwife you want, make a list of things you want to ask at a meet and greet, arange a meet and greet with a couple of midwifes and if you like any pick the one you feel most comfortable with.
