BULK BILLED CARE
Private Midwife Care with GROW.BIRTH.MOTHER offers comprehensive support from conception to 7 weeks postpartum, tailored to your unique needs. With unlimited appointments available, you have the freedom to access care whenever you need it.
To get started, simply obtain a referral from your GP to GROW.BIRTH.MOTHER. From there, you can book your appointments (👇 down there) to start receiving the care you deserve.
My private midwife care is incredibly flexible. You have the option to choose the level of care that suits you best, whether it's full clinical support throughout pregnancy and postpartum, partial clinical care, or care in conjunction with your chosen birthing hospital.
I can coordinate all necessary screening and testing throughout your pregnancy. This includes organising crucial blood tests and ultrasounds, as well as meticulously reviewing results and reports.
Moreover, I believe in collaborative care. I can work hand-in-hand with your chosen obstetrician, general practitioner, or other healthcare professionals to ensure seamless continuity in your pregnancy journey. This collaborative approach ensures that you receive the best possible care, with all aspects of your well-being taken into account.
Additionally, my services extend beyond clinical care. I offer education, support, advocacy, and guidance, ensuring you have a steadfast ally throughout your pregnancy and early motherhood journey.
At GROW.BIRTH.MOTHER, I believe that every woman is entitled to private midwife care and continuity of support, regardless of where they choose to give birth.

⭐️ GROW.BIRTH.MOTHER is a transformative experience designed to empower women throughout their 🤰pregnancy and birthing journey.
🙋🏼♀️ Led by Kate, a seasoned private midwife and coach, this program offers expert guidance and support for expectant mothers.

WHAT'S THE BIG MISSION HERE AT GBM.....
The big mission here is to...
1️⃣revolutionise the way women experience 🤰pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood.
