Midwifery Services

As a privately practicing midwife, my goal is to support you through every aspect of your pregnancy, labour and birth, and postpartum journey.

Why choose a private midwife?

Private midwifery care involves a known midwife providing all your pregnancy care from conception to six weeks after birth. As your dedicated midwife, Megan will be there to support you throughout your entire journey, whether you choose to give birth at home or in a hospital.

The advantage of having a single midwife throughout your pregnancy, labour and birth, and postpartum cannot be overstated. This continuity means that Megan becomes deeply familiar

with your personal health history, preferences, values and needs, just as you will become

comfortable and familiar with her. This established mutual understanding ensures that

you feel not only safe, but also supported in a way that perfectly aligns with your individual

needs.

Megan provides holistic, evidence-based care that is personalised to meet the needs of you and your family. All appointments can be in True Natal’s Capalaba Clinic or in the comfort of your own home whichever suits you best so you are able to spend more time together focusing on what really matters - you and your baby.

As an Endorsed Midwife, Megan is able to order ultrasounds, blood tests and prescribe medications as needed through your motherhood journey. She can also consult with and refer you to other care providers if required.

Homebirth

Where you choose to give birth is a deeply personal decision and Megan is committed to supporting your choice.

If you are considering a homebirth, Megan ensures a safe and supportive environment to facilitate the birth of your baby in the comfort of your own home.

Homebirth care includes continuity of care through your pregnancy from conception until six weeks postpartum, along with facilatiation of your homebirth. This includes the presence of a second midwife for additional safety and the option of using a birth pool for comfort.

Megan's care is tailored to meet your individual needs and preferences, helping pave the way for a joyful beginning to life with your baby.

Antenatal midwifery care

Pregnancy is an incredible experience. Your body, heart and mind are going through enormous changes as you grow and prepare to birth and support your baby.

Antenatal midwifery care with Megan includes all aspects of pregnancy care including ordering and interpreting investigations, monitoring the physical health of you and your growing baby, supporting your mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing throughout your pregnancy.

Antenatal care includes approximately 8-13 appointments through your pregnancy, as needed, and Megan is available for any concerns or questions that arise throughout your entire pregnancy.

Antenatal care is for all women. If you are experiencing a higher-risk pregnancy Megan is able to provide care for you through your pregnancy in conjunction with other specialised care providers.

Postnatal midwifery care

The first weeks with your baby are a beautiful and precious time. It is also a time of immense physical, practical, and emotional change. Bringing a newborn baby home can be a daunting experience, but it doesn't have to be. It should be an exciting, miraculous, enjoyable time for your whole family.

Postnatal midwifery care with Megan is available to help your family settle into life at home with your baby. Let Megan help guide and support you through the highs and lows of life with your little one.

Care is completely individualised to you, your baby, and your family and encompasses all aspects of maternal and infant care in the first six weeks from birth.
