Meet The Specialist Midwife

I’m Lara, Private and independent Midwife of 13 years, Copywriter and Educator as well as being Mother to 3 boys. 

 

I started my Midwifery journey back in 2009, driven by my own experience of pregnancy, birth and Motherhood. During my time employed by the NHS, I gained experience in every area of Midwifery, ending my career as a specialist Midwife. 

Since leaving the NHS 4 years ago I've dedicated time to exploring the 4th trimester in depth, with further education, research and guidance from experts in the field of Postnatal recovery, attachment, and infant cognitive and emotional development. As well as keeping myself up to date with the latest evidence and guidance, I have 30 years of my own parenting experience to draw upon.

 

Day to day I provide individualised evidence based 4th trimester care with a focus on private, enhanced postnatal care and c-section recovery to families. Alongside creating blogs and educational resources for well known pregnancy and maternity brands, I provide training and consultancy to the media and private services. I work bi weekly from my Solihull clinic where I offer private antenatal care and also work alongside other experienced professionals supporting private birth in Birmingham. 

I am passionate about driving for change in Postnatal care, to ensure all families are supported and making evidence based guidance and education accessible for all. Working with leading parenting and maternity brands, like Lil-Lets UK is helping me achieve this.

I am registered with The Royal College of Midwives and work in accordance with the Nursing and Midwifery Council and adhere to the Code of Conduct. I am also registered with the Royal College of Nursing being fully insured to provide antenatal and postnatal care and am also a member of ZEST.

 

I'm really looking forward to supporting you!
