My Fees

Initial Consultation: £50

At this visit (usually lasting an hour) we have the opportunity to meet and to discuss your individual wishes and requirements. This can be done in your own home or at a place of your choosing. The fee is refundable in the event of you booking with me.


Full Midwifery Care Package: £3000

For my full professional service, which involves all pregnancy, birth and postnatal care (see My Services), I charge a fee for the total package of care. This fee remains the same no matter when in your pregnancy you book with me. A deposit of £500 is due at booking and full payment is due by 36 weeks of pregnancy. Monthly instalments or other payment methods may be negotiated.

Noah's first feed
Noah's first feed

It seemed quite a lot of money to find but we decided that birth was far more important than a holiday and we only intended to do it twice in our lifetime, so we decided to go with an Independent Midwife and do without a holiday this year.

We helped my daughter financially by paying the midwifery fees; it was a pleasure to give such a gift to her and our lovely grandson.
