Amanda looked after us after the birth of our daughter in the summer and I could not recommend her highly enough for anyone who wants extra support in the postnatal period. I knew from friends that post natal support could be limited and as a new mum was worried about accessing the help I needed. As soon as I met Amanda when I was pregnant I knew she would take great care of us and could tell she had a wealth of knowledge from her years as a midwife. She came to us regularly in the postnatal period and we really looked forward to her visits. Nothing was rushed, she would stay a couple of hours, especially in the early days and was incredibly thorough in checking our health and recovery. She was invaluable in supporting me with breastfeeding and would answer any concerns about my recovery or all my new baby questions, offering loads of tips and tricks that helped me settle into being a mum. She was such a friendly, reassuring presence to have around in the early days, we really don’t know what we would have done without her!

My wife and I couldn’t recommend Amanda highly enough. Her calmness, knowledge, experience and empathy have been an incredible support throughout the pregnancy. She has taken my wife on a journey starting with being pretty petrified of giving birth; to feeling chilled, relaxed and even looking forward to it. We can’t imagine having done this without Amanda by our sides. Investing in Amanda as your private midwife will be the best decision you could make!

If only it was possible to wrap Amanda up and put her in my pocket to carry by my side everyday, I would. She really is the most wonderful, thoughtful, patient, calm, educated and understanding woman I’ve ever met. Her knowledge and compassion is outstanding. She helped me through a very personal journey trying to navigate my second pregnancy after suffering with birth trauma and PTSD following the birth of my son. I enrolled on her birth trauma course and her hypnobirthing course and I know if I hadn’t had Amanda’s help throughout my pregnancy I wouldn’t have had the most beautiful, calm and healing home birth that I did with my daughter this year. It was the most magical and wonderful experience of my whole life. I’m forever grateful for the tools in which she taught me and I still use and think about now, in day to day life! I went from feeling like a failed mother to a warrior and that was all down Amanda’s support and I would urge anyone to enrol on her courses, or even just have a cuppa with her! She’s wonderful :)

Amanda is an amazing midwife who is both professional and personable. She supported my wife through a hypnobirthing course and really managed to get to the core of the practice and make it feel accessible. Following the birth of our little boy Amanda guided us through breastfeeding with her wealth of knowledge. It was actually really nice having her in the house as she was able to afford the time to really go through all the questions we had. I couldn't recommend her more. Of all the things we thought we needed prior to birth Amanda's support is the one thing, we wouldn't have done without. One hundred percent worth it.

Amanda was amazing once again (second child) at guiding us through the hypno birthing techniques. She was on hand for phone calls etc when we needed advice and reassurance and went above and beyond in this respect. I felt I had a member of the medical profession that I could trust and who would be honest with me which was worth everything. Amanda was able to identify my concerns and work through them with me. I cannot rate her highly enough.

Amanda was a brilliant guide and mentor for my second birth (at home) experience. She was a great listener, understood and totally respected what my expectations. She supported me from all my appointments (with some tough consultants) to the full birth experience at home with my first born and husband. It was magic and it was made magic because of her wonderful presence. It’s amazing what a calm, experienced, and knowledgable midwife can impact on your whole pregnancy and birth experience. A very special lady indeed.

Amanda is an absolutely amazing midwife. Having had a traumatic birth at Airedale, I can honestly say I would not have got through it without her. Her experience and knowledge was so reassuring being a first time mum. Amanda’s friendly, calm manner makes you feel at ease instantly and you know you are in good hands. Throughout my whole pregnancy I felt completely reassured and nothing was too much trouble. I felt comfort knowing that Amanda was on the end of the phone if I had any questions or worries. Amanda was always ready to listen and I didn’t feel rushed during our appointments. The hypnobirthing I did with Amanda really helped prepare not just me but also my husband for birth and everything we had learned really came into play on the day. Once we got home from the hospital Amanda was there to support us. Bringing a newborn home is a daunting aspect and Amanda was there from day 1 to help me with breastfeeding and to guide and reassure us we were doing ok. I highly recommend Amanda, she is a credit to her industry.

What can I say about Amanda, in short she is wonderful a real blessing. She brings a wealth of experience, support and calmness. She’ll help you navigate what is right for you and your baby throughout your pregnancy and postnatally. With my first born I had what was labelled a traumatic birth and for me it certainly was. Amanda helped me immensely, she helped me work through the trauma and feel ready, empowered and brave for the birth of my daughter. I had a really positive second birth. I really couldn’t recommend Amanda enough.
