Meet Melissa
Hi, I’m Melissa, and I am an endorsed private midwife on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Having navigated the public hospital system throughout Australia and the community, I followed my passion for providing woman-centred continuity of care through pregnancy, labour and birth, and into parenthood, embarking on a new journey starting my private practice. Offering women and their families the skills and knowledge to grow and shape their own birth story, feeling supported, empowered, and safe. I am a mother of four, and after experiencing empowered birth myself, I have a passion for supporting other women do the same.
Birth Tribe Midwifery Philosophy and Principles
Pregnancy and childbirth are normal physiological processes.
Midwifery care is in partnership with women, walking alongside women, respecting the right to self-determination, and is respectful and personalised.
Midwifery care is holistic and ongoing, based on an awareness of women's social, emotional, cultural, spiritual, psychological and physical experiences.
Pregnancy and birth are meaningful, powerful and life changing experiences for women, her family and the community.
Women have the right to feel safe and supported in their choice of place of birth.
Consultation, collaboration and referral as needed with other members of the health care team to offer optimal midwifery care.
