Merivale Midwives

Nestled in the heart of Canterbury, Merivale Midwives is a warm, nurturing sanctuary where women embark on one of life's most profound journeys - childbirth and motherhood. Established with a vision to empower and support expectant mothers, we have been providing compassionate, professional care for decades. Our midwives are not just healthcare providers; they are companions, guides, and confidantes, walking alongside women as they navigate the complex and beautiful world of childbirth. We believe in the strength of each woman and her ability to bring new life into the world. Our approach is holistic, encompassing prenatal care, breastfeeding support, and emotional guidance through every step of this transformative process. We champion home birthing, offering a serene, familiar environment for women who wish to embrace the sanctity of their own homes during labor. For those seeking a different experience, we provide access to water birth facilities, an option that many find soothing and comforting. We also offer a variety of educational classes designed to equip expectant mothers with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their care. At Merivale Midwives, we understand that every woman's journey is unique. We are here to listen, learn, and support each individual's needs. Our midwives are not just experts in childbirth; they are mothers themselves, deeply connected to the joys and challenges of motherhood. They offer more than medical expertise; they provide emotional support, understanding, and unwavering encouragement. In the vibrant city of Canterbury, Merivale Midwives stands as a beacon of hope, love, and strength for expectant mothers. We invite you to join our family, where every woman is valued, every voice heard, and every journey cherished.
