Your Private Midwife

10/05/2026

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers, mothers-to-be, and families we’ve had the privilege of supporting. 🩵🤍

As private midwife’s, we witness strength, vulnerability, courage, and love every single day. From the first flutter of pregnancy to the first moments of meeting your baby, it is an honour to walk beside women through such a life-changing journey.

Today is also for the mothers who are navigating loss, longing, exhaustion, healing, or uncertainty. Your story matters too.

The care, resilience, and love mothers give so freely never go unnoticed.
Wishing you a day filled with gentleness, appreciation, and moments to simply be held and celebrated. 💐💗

A Note From Our Team

In 2025, Your Private Midwife transitioned from three to two.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Lois, one of our founding members, for her dedication, trust, and commitment in helping establish YPM. We wish her every success in her future journey 💜

During 2025, Carlie and Lisa also took a pause from attending births to prioritise family time.

Looking ahead to 2026, to ensure we continue offering sustainable, passionate, and deeply present care, we will be taking a planned pause on births during October and early November.

Continuity, informed choice, safety, and individualised care remain at the heart of everything we do. We are deeply grateful to every family who allows us to walk beside them through pregnancy, birth, and beyond 💜

23/12/2025

As 2025 comes to a close, we want to pause and reflect on the incredible miracle of life we’ve been privileged to witness this year at Your Private Midwife.

From those empowering births to the joyful first cries , we’ve welcomed so many beautiful new babies into loving families. Each one has been a reminder of the magic, strength, and hope that new beginnings bring especially during this festive season🤶🏻🎄🎅🏼

To all our wonderful families: Thank you for trusting us with your most precious moments❤️

Wishing you a Merry Christmas filled with warmth, love, joy and special cuddles.🎄🌟May the New Year bring health, happiness, and endless joy to you and your little ones.
We’re grateful for you and excited for all the families we’ll support in 2026.

With love and gratitude,
Lisa & Carlie
