This is your show my friend, the only person you have any accountability to is you! And I'm with you, every step of the way 💪🏻

Fellow birthworkers, I'd love to know, what pieces of wisdom do you share with your clients to help them tune out the "noise"?

It can be hard to understand the value of continuity of care until you've felt it yourself.

It’s not just about having a ‘main care provider’.

It’s about:
🧡 Being known
🧡 Feeling safe
🧡 Not having to start from scratch at every appointment

For many, continuity of care is what transforms their experience of pregnancy and birth.

If you’ve been feeling like something is missing in your care, this might be part of it.

If this resonates with you, you’re very welcome to reach out ✨

Sometimes it’s the quieter parts of care that matter most.

Feeling comfortable enough to ask the question you’ve been holding onto.
Not feeling rushed.
Knowing the person sitting beside you understands your story.

These are the things that often stay with you long after your baby is in your arms 💫

Not vibing with your current maternity care provider? It's never too late to change your mind!

I take a limited caseload for birth support, reach out if one of these spaces belongs to you 🌟

Does your postnatal care feel like this? No?

Maybe you need a private midwife 💁🏻‍♀️

Send me a message to chat about your options from pregnancy through to the postnatal period 🌸

And when your little ones are no longer quite so little, this a lovely way to support their increasing activity and independence while staying connected to the village you grew through your four trimesters 🌞

THE LITTLE VILLAGE CLUB

We’re excited to share that the Birth Time Midwives Collective is launching a new monthly postpartum group for women, birthing people, and their babies from 3 to 12 months postpartum.

This group is for clients of the Birth Time Midwives Collective. It is a natural next step from our Four Trimesters group, offering continued connection, support, and community throughout your baby’s first year. Because postpartum doesn’t end at 12 weeks and neither should your support.

Each month, we’ll gather in a welcoming, baby-friendly space to
- Connect with other parents who truly get it
- Share the real, unfiltered experiences of life with a growing baby
- Receive emotional support in a safe, inclusive environment
- Learn from occasional guest speakers offering parenting tips, self-care practices, and baby development insights.

Whether you’re navigating sleep changes, starting solids, older siblings, returning to work, or simply craving community, this group is here for you.

You don’t have to do the first year alone. Come find your Village.

Ask your midwife for details

All of my clients are welcome to join this beautiful village. There's nothing like making connections with others in the same season of life as you ✨

The Four Trimesters Group -

Monthly gatherings at Birth Time: The Village

The Four Trimesters Group is offered as part of the continuity of midwifery care you receive with any of the Birth Time Midwives.

It’s a space created for the women and birthing people we walk with, from early pregnancy through to twelve weeks postpartum.

Each month we gather to feel less alone in it all. Some sessions will include gentle, facilitated conversations with your midwives. Sometimes we will welcome trusted guests to share information and knowledge.
This is not a class.
It’s not a drop-in playgroup.
It’s a calm, consistent space for connection within the village community.

Who it’s for:
Women receiving care with any of the Birth Time midwives, from early pregnancy through to 12 weeks postpartum.
Babies in arms are warmly welcome.
We kindly ask that older children stay at home so the space can remain settled and supportive for everyone.

Ask your midwife for details.

THE BIRTH TIME MIDWIVES COLLECTIVE

Over the coming weeks we will be introducing you to our collective of midwives who are practicing all over Sydney.

Today, meet Chelsea Baker Midwife Chelsea

From May, Chelsea will be offering private midwifery care to families in the Blue Mountains and Greater Sydney region.

Chelsea has been a Registered Midwife since 2020, working primarily in hospital settings and supporting private midwives at homebirths. She has held the vision of working as a privately practicing midwife since she commenced her studies in 2016. During her time working within hospitals, she gained valuable clinical skills, but also became acquainted with the results of fragmented and impersonal maternity care. This, contrasted by the incredible experience of being cared for by private midwives (Jo and Lu) in her own pregnancies, strengthened her resolve to take the leap into private midwifery practice.
Chelsea believes that the journey to parenthood is a sacred rite of passage and that it is her privilege to walk beside her clients as a grounded, heart-led companion. Her care blends evidence-based practice with intuitive knowing and is grounded in partnership: you lead, and she provides guidance, advocacy, and support.

Chelsea’s services:
-Full-spectrum midwifery care (antenatal, labour and birth, postnatal care)
-Stand-alone antenatal and postnatal appointments
-Preconception care and planning
-Fertility awareness education for contraception, conception and body literacy
-Acuneedling™️
-Bodywork
