Did you know:

Women who give birth with continuity of midwifery care are more likely to have an overall positive birth experience, regardless of what happens during the birth.

But continuity of midwifery care models are in high demand and get booked out VERY quickly.

So if you want to have continuity of midwifery care, you absolutely must book in as soon as possible.

Don't wait until your hospital booking-in appointment to make a decision about who you want as a care provider.

Look for a continuity of care midwife as soon as you know you are pregnant!
