I’m Alisha and I work as a LMC midwife within Franklin and surrounding rural areas.

I am passionate about working alongside women and their families in partnership and continuity of care to educate, advocate and nourish each journey.

Welcoming a new addition to the family is an intimate and significant life event that I feel honoured to be a part of. My philosophy lies within the primary setting and therefore promote and support physiological birth at Pukekohe Maternity Unit or homebirth.

I provide care throughout your pregnancy, birth and 4-6wks following the birth of your baby. If you prefer or require to be delivered at Middlemore Hospital then I am happy to provide antenatal and postnatal care.

Due to the 24/7 nature of midwifery, my lovely team of 6 experienced midwives work well to provide support for each other which enables us to take alternative weekends off. As a mother of 2 this is very important for me.
