Annika and Zahra provide shared care to women. They strongly trust the natural ability of women's bodies to grow and birth their babies, and believe this sacred process works best when left undisturbed as much as possible. They feel immensely privileged to walk beside women and families on their childbirth journey, and their midwifery hearts sing loudest when supporting them in their own space at home. They love their work and are passionate about providing positive, empowering, and safe midwifery care.
They have a pool and califont available for those wanting a waterbirth at home.
They work with women in the Hamilton area.

Karene provides care that is holistic and gentle, supportive and empowering, and acts in partnership with the woman and her family / whānau, sharing decision-making, knowledge and skills.

Congratulations on your pregnancy - this is an exciting and emotional time for you. I come to midwifery with a love of working with women and a strong belief that pregnancy is a normal and exciting time in each woman’s life. Each woman's journey is individual and it is a privilege to walk alongside them. I have a particular interest in home birth and am happy to support women who wish to birth at home or in a birth centre. If their journey should change to need extra support, I am happy to support them in a hospital setting. Wherever a woman births, my goal is to help her feel she has all the tools to have the best experience she can have. Antenatal appointments are about 1 hour long and I include midwifery specific acupuncture at no cost for women in my care who choose it. I live in the outskirts of Hamilton with my husband and four children aged 17, 16, 14 and 10. We have an old house we are slowly renovating, two golden retrievers, three cats and a menagerie of other animals. I look forward to meeting you.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I am a midwife working in the Hamilton and surrounding areas. My husband and I have five children (ages 12, 9, 5, 3 and under 1 year old) and it's through my experience with them which inspired me to become a midwife and follow my dream. I keep a small caseload to allow more time to spend one-to-one with women and their families. I would like the opportunity to work alongside a woman and her family to provide woman centred care, and experience their journey into parenthood.
