Welcome to Rosebuds Midwifery - True Continuity of Care

Rosebuds Midwifery is a team of passionate professionals committed to providing safe,
evidence-based and truly continuous care. We believe pregnancy, birth and postnatal
care should be stress-free, empowering and deeply supportive.

Your Body, Your Choice: An Informed Approach to Maternity Care
We know that knowledge is power, and genuine autonomy comes from understanding
your options. That’s why we ensure you have access to balanced, evidence-based
information so you can make decisions that feel right for you and your baby. Inspired by
the work of Dr Sara Wickham, we advocate for informed choice and respectful
maternity care because you are the expert in your own experience.
Whether you need IV fluids, iron studies, blood tests at home or a quick e-script sent to
your phone, we offer accessible, personalised support tailored to your needs.

We are about keeping things stress-free and individualised, ensuring seamless and simple
care. Our goal is to provide uninterrupted, holistic care, ensuring you always feel heard,
respected and in control of your journey.

Safe Birth, Your Way

Every pregnancy, birth and parenting experience is unique. What's right for one person may not be right for another, and that's okay.
We don't judge, we educate. We provide the knowledge, guidance and support to help you make informed choices that align with your values and circumstances.
Our approach is rooted in a risk-versus-benefit model, ensuring safe, evidence-based care whether you choose to give birth at home or in a hospital. Our priority is always safety, respect and informed choice because your birth experience should be yours to shape. You are never alone. With 24/7 on-call midwives, we can always support you when you need us. If you need to go to the hospital, you will never go alone - your midwife will be right there with you, ensuring you feel supported every step.

More Minds Are Better Than One

At Rosebuds, we believe that care is stronger and more effective when minds come together. We work as a team because collaboration fosters safer, more empowering outcomes for the families we support. With decades of experience, diverse cultural perspectives and multiple qualifications, what truly defines us isn't just our credentials, it's our shared philosophy:
• A deep belief in the continuity of care
• A commitment to informed choice
• A passion for evidence-based, respectful maternity care
Rosebuds wasn't formed out of friendship; it was built on a shared vision of what maternity care should be. We're not here to change the world, but we are here to provide a proven model of care that delivers the best outcomes for women and their families.
Our doors and our phones are always open. Today, next year or three years from now, you will always have access to the support you need.

What Sets Us Apart?

Two Endorsed Midwives + Doula for the Cost of One - With Rosebuds, you receive the combined care of two highly experienced endorsed midwives and a dedicated doula for in-home assistance before and after birth. This means more support, more hands-on care, and a truly holistic approach that is free of extra costs.
• Seamless Access to Additional Services - Need blood tests, iron infusions or scripts? We offer:
• Home-based blood collection or e-request forms for pathology.
• IV fluids and iron infusions arranged with ease.
• Electronic prescriptions delivered straight to your phone.
Holistic Pregnancy & Postnatal Support - We offer a range of additional holistic therapies designed to support your mind and body throughout pregnancy and postpartum:
• Reflexology for relaxation and improved circulation.
• Aromatherapy to enhance emotional and physical well-being.
• Pregnancy massage for comfort and pain relief.

The only service not included in any package is ultrasounds, which are conducted by private practices specialising in this care.
