Dedicated support throughout the on-call period (usually from 38 weeks pregnant), when I am on call 24/7 to attend your birth in your chosen location, offering practical and emotional support during the birth and in the time immediately following birth (clearing up, supporting with the first feed etc). I will stay until you feel comfortable for me to leave you to enjoy privacy with your family and new baby.
