Private Midwife Near Me

If you are searching for a private midwife near you in London, Essex or Hertfordshire, you may be wondering what private midwifery care actually involves, what support you can choose and whether you need to book a complete package.

Private midwifery care does not have to look the same for every family.

Some women come to me because they would like continuity throughout their pregnancy, birth and postnatal period. Others are happy with their existing maternity care but would like some additional time with an experienced midwife to talk through their options, prepare for birth or receive extra support after their baby arrives.

At Guided By You Midwifery, my care is built around what you and your family actually need.

Why Choose a Private Midwife?

So many of the families I work with tell me the same thing, they wanted to feel truly seen, heard, and supported. They wanted someone who knew their story, their hopes, and their worries. That's exactly what I offer.

Choosing a private midwife gives you more time to talk through your options, ask questions and make informed decisions about your care. It also gives us the opportunity to get to know each other, so you don't have to keep explaining what is important to you at every appointment.

Private midwifery care can be completely individual to you. You may want support throughout your pregnancy, birth and postnatal period, or you may simply want some additional support alongside your usual maternity care.

With Guided By You Midwifery you get:

• Detailed booking appointment, so I can get to know you properly

• Continuity of care from a qualified, experienced midwife

• Appointments in your own home, at your own pace

• Support through pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period

• Someone who is truly on your side
