Kumeu & Helensville Midwives

24/11/2025

I’m a passionate Midwife and Lactation Consultant based in beautiful north-west Auckland. It’s a privilege to walk alongside women and whānau during such a life-changing time, and I truly believe every pregnancy and birth is a unique journey — one that deserves to be positive, empowering, and centred around you.

I take a holistic approach to care, supporting your choices throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period. Whether you’re planning to birth at home or at a primary facility like the Helensville Birthing Centre, I’m here to ensure you feel safe, informed, and supported every step of the way.

While I specialise in primary care, I also maintain strong links with local hospitals to ensure a smooth and safe transition if anything unexpected arises. Your safety and peace of mind are always my top priorities.

As both a midwife and lactation consultant, I’m committed to providing up-to-date, evidence-based information to help you make informed decisions that align with your values.

Kia Ora e hoa, Welcome to the Kumeu Midwives. My name is Sheri and want to congratulate you on your pregnancy. This journey is going to be exciting and so empowering & I cannot wait to walk alongside you through this space. I am a māmā of two teenage daughters, have loads of tattoos and enjoy a good laugh!! I am born and raised in west Auckland and rural west Auckland, so I will be birthing through Home, Helensville birth centre, Waitakere hospital and North shore hospital. I believe in doing my best to create a physiological birthing experience and understand that sometimes along the journey it can change, so I will talk with you on making informed decisions with other health professionals that are appropriate to your care. I am huge on partnership, informed decision making and cultural awareness. This guides the way I practise and helps me ensure the best care possible for you and your baby. I look forward to this awesome journey with you.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! My name is Tulsi and I live in North-West Auckland with my family. Having children of my own inspired my path to midwifery, and I am passionate about working in partnership with women and birthing people to have a positive and meaningful birth experience. Having a baby is such a transformative time in your life, and it is a privilege to work in the childbirth space. My aim is to support you to make informed choices that are right for you on your unique journey, to foster confidence and empowerment. My clinic is in Helensville and I work closely with my practice partner Eartha Healy, and a wonderful supportive team of midwives from the Helensville-Kumeu area. I specialise in supporting whanau birthing at home or at the Helensville Birthing Centre. I also have access with North Shore and Waitakere hospitals should hospital care be needed.

Please call or txt 0226788441 between 9-5 Monday to Friday, or email me tulsimidwife@gmail.com

For all of you out there wanting a home birth …

We always see loads of questions about home birth.

I can't answer individual queries, but I have a website full of free information.

It also has links to my books and other sources of useful info for when you want more depth.

Because so many people ask, "is home birth safe?" (and yes, it is), that's the name of our home birth information hub.

It offers links to all of my info on this topic and an overview of the most recent studies in this area.

This quote is from just one study looking at the safety of home birth, and there are many more.

So have a look at our information hub, and yes, please feel free to share/repost this pic or link with our text and credit intact.
