Support doesn’t stop when you leave the hospital. 🤍

We’ve introduced something new at Intuition Private — at-home midwife support, designed to care for you in the moments that matter most.

As part of our Central Coast Pregnancy Care Bundle, you’ll receive 10 at-home midwife visits to use throughout pregnancy and up to your six-week postnatal check.

Because those early weeks? They’re beautiful… and a lot.

✨ Feeding support
✨ Recovery checks
✨ Newborn weight and wellbeing
✨ Space to ask all the questions

All in the comfort of your own home.

No rushing out the door.
No sitting in waiting rooms.
Just calm, personalised care where you need it most.

It’s care that continues beyond birth — and it’s something we’re proud to be bringing to families here on the Central Coast.

📞 Want to learn more? Get in touch with our team.

Pregnancy doesn’t always follow a straight path.

Many women begin their journey feeling low risk — but sometimes things change along the way. That’s where having an obstetrician matters.

It means your care is being overseen by a specialist who can identify, monitor and manage any complexities if they arise, while working alongside midwives and the broader hospital team to support you.

When you partner with a private obstetrician, you can feel confident that if anything changes, you’re already in a model of care that can adapt with you.

📞 Want to understand your options? We’re here to help.

Let’s clear something up.

Private obstetric care on the Central Coast did not end with the closure of the Gosford Private maternity unit.

There’s been a lot of misinformation — and understandably, it’s left many families confused.

You can still have a private obstetrician.
You can still receive continuity of care.
You can still access high-quality, supported birth locally.

As Dr Skilbeck explains, it’s important to understand your options before assuming you need to travel.

Because you don’t.

📞 If you’re unsure what private care looks like now, reach out. We’ll walk you through it.

Bittersweet feelings this week, a year on from the closure of the Maternity Unit at , BUT we scored their best employee out of it! 😉☺️

Karyn is a fan favourite at Intuition, who brings equal parts professionalism and fun and enthusiasm to everything she does!

She’s been instrumental in helping us transition to our new ways of working at GDH and her understanding of our new paediatrics service is second to none! (Ask for Karyn!)

Congratulations Karyn, and here’s to many more years of success with Intuition Private

When it comes to birth, timing matters.

One of the biggest misconceptions we’re seeing is that families feel they need to travel to Sydney for safe, high-quality care.
But the reality is — you don’t.

Gosford Hospital offers strong, well-supported maternity care right here on the Central Coast, with:

✨ 24/7 on-site medical teams
✨ Immediate access to theatre and specialist support
✨ A Special Care Nursery for babies who need extra help
✨ Highly experienced midwives and paediatric teams

As Dr Skilbeck explains, outcomes can be significantly improved when care is available immediately if something unexpected arises.

And that’s what matters most.

When you choose private obstetric care with Intuition, you’re combining that hospital infrastructure with something just as important — continuity.

The doctor who knows you.
The care plan you understand.
The support that doesn’t change when things get real.

Because birth doesn’t always go to plan — but where you are, and who’s around you, makes all the difference.

We’re delighted to welcome Maryam Saadeldeen to the Intuition Private team 🤍

Maryam is an experienced obstetric and gynaecological sonographer with a strong background in fetal medicine, bringing an exceptional depth of knowledge and international training to our patients on the Central Coast.

Maryam has spent several years working within the Fetal Medicine Department at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney and holds postgraduate qualifications in obstetric and gynaecological ultrasound from Australian universities.

Patients describe Maryam as warm, thorough and easy to talk to. She’s known for her clear explanations, gentle manner and unwavering commitment to providing safe, high-quality ultrasound care for women and their families.

We’re so proud to have her as part of our growing team. 🤍

We're very excited to welcome two new members of the team to Intuition Private!

Sue (left) has experience in medical reception, but comes to us from the childcare industry, which is a great skill set for our clinic, now that we have three paediatricians on board! Sue will be working three days a week.

Renee (right) is actually our marketing guru, but was happy to "train up" to be our floating receptionist when we're Short By One at late notice! She's now convinced every marketing person should spend at least a week on reception!

Please welcome Sue and Renee, and be kind and patient while they learn the ropes here at Intuition Private! 👯‍♀️

✨ 10 at-home midwife appointments — included.

Yes, at home.

These visits can be used any time from when you arrive home from hospital up until your six week postnatal check. That means more support in your own space, more continuity, and less time travelling when you’re tired, recovering, or adjusting to life with a newborn.

If you’re already a patient, ask us how you can also take advantage of this.

Why does this matter? Because the early postnatal weeks are tender and overwhelming. Because packing up a newborn, getting in the car and sitting in a waiting room isn’t always ideal.

These appointments are designed to provide:
• Continuity of care
• Clinical assessment and reassurance
• Feeding and newborn support
• Postnatal recovery checks
• Space to ask the questions you don’t always get time to ask

It’s care that comes to you. It’s support that extends beyond birth. It’s structured, intentional and designed around real life.
If you’re considering private obstetric care on the Central Coast and want to understand how the Central Coast Pregnancy Care Bundle works, call us to request a full overview.

We’re proud to introduce the new Central Coast Pregnancy Care Bundle! 🤍

Created for women who want comprehensive, personalised obstetric care without leaving the Coast, this bundle has evolved to provide even more support where it matters most — at home.

What’s new?

✨ 10 at-home midwife appointments

These visits can be used from your birth, up to your six-week postnatal consultation. That means more support in your own space, more continuity, and less time travelling when you’re tired, recovering or adjusting to life with a newborn.

✨ A structured monthly-installment payment plan

We understand that private obstetric care is an investment. Our new payment structure allows you to spread the cost across manageable monthly instalments, offering greater transparency and financial clarity from the beginning.

If you’re newly pregnant, planning to conceive, or simply exploring your options, call us to request a full overview of the Central Coast Pregnancy Care Bundle by contacting us at 4321 0500 or emailing us at reception@intuitionprivate.com.au.

Because how you feel during pregnancy, birth and beyond truly matters. 🤍

March is Endometriosis Awareness Month 💛

And if you’ve ever been told that your period pain is “just part of being a woman”… this is your reminder that it’s not.

Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. It can cause severe period pain, pelvic pain, pain during in*******se, heavy bleeding, fatigue, bowel symptoms and, for some women, fertility challenges.

It affects 1 in 9 Australian women. That’s not rare. That’s common. And yet so many women wait years for a diagnosis.
At Intuition Private, we take your pain seriously. You deserve to be heard, investigated properly, and offered evidence-based treatment options. You deserve more than “take some Panadol and push through.”

If you think you might be suffering from endometriosis, please book an appointment with one of our doctors. Early assessment and a personalised management plan can make a real difference to your quality of life.

You do not have to suffer in silence. 💛
