1st Choice Midwives
Sheryl Wright & Sue Holdom have been working together since 2003 and share a similar midwifery philosophy, in which women and their babies are 'the stars' and our role is providing holistic care, taking account of individual social, cultural, physical, spiritual and emotional needs. We both maintain our own caseload with the benefits of being supported by each other when required, ensuring the women we work with have access to a complete midwifery service 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. We offer a full midwifery service caring for women planning to birth at home or Birthcare Huntly, with continued support if birth at Waikato Hospital is required. We cover the entire North Waikato area - from Hamilton North to Meremere and from Te Akau to Tahuna (including Ngaruawahia, Huntly & Te Kauwhata).
For more information please see our website. www.birth.net.nz

Jennie Knight - New Additions Midwifery Villa
I am dedicated to helping women achieve the pregnancy and birth outcomes that they are aiming for. I am a Primary Care specialist, preferring to practice in a community setting - clinic, home or birth centre, however, I realise that some women need medical assistance during their pregnancy and/or birth and I am happy to support them through this.
Having lived rurally for most of my life I am more than happy to look after women who live in or around Raglan, Te Awamutu, Ngaruawahia and of course Hamilton. My midwifery clinic is at the New Additions Midwifery Villa on Massey Street in Frankton but I am happy to visit women at home if that is more convenient for you.

Julie Williams - Midwife
 Hi my name is Julie Williams. I am a registered independent midwife and I live in Cambridge with my husband and 2 boys, ages 12 (Oliver) and 10 (Flynn). I work locally in Cambridge and will also travel to surrounding areas, as well as Hamilton. I am passionate about helping women and their families through the amazing journey of pregnancy, labour and birth, and the ever so important post natal period. I like to keep my caseload small which enables me to give you personal, individualised care which is not rushed. I believe in creating a partnership with women, building trust, respect, comfort and confidence, providing informed choices and ongoing support throughout this transition to motherhood. This memorable journey in a woman?s life is a family event, and my aim is to build a trusting relationship with families, and to provide safe and personal care to all women that I care for. Please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to meet with you.
