Our Mission at Your Local Midwife
Affordable
You don’t need to travel far or wait weeks to get real, woman-centred care.
Whether you’re planning a homebirth, booked into Bacchus Marsh, Ballarat or Sunshine Hospital, carrying one baby or more, you’re welcome here.
We’ve made it easy:
▫️ Bulk billed for eligible Medicare card holders
▫️ No GP referral needed
▫️ In-person care right here in Bacchus Marsh
▫️ Supporting women from Melton, Ballan, Werribee, Ballarat, Sunbury and surrounds
▫️ No judgment. No categories. Just support.
We are not a rotating roster or call centre.
We’ve made it easy for you to see the same midwife every time throughout your pregnancy and into those first 8 weeks postpartum.
Your story matters.
Your care should be consistent. That’s how trust is built and that’s what leads to better outcomes for you and your baby.
Continuity isn’t a bonus, it’s our standard.
We believe midwifery care is a must for everyone, not just for the privilege.
