midwiferry practice london birth rites

Melody Weig, BGS, SCM, DHyp and
French midwife, Emmanuelle Vallat, RM

 

We love the work we do knowing we can make a difference, one pregnancy, one birth, one baby, at a time. Our aim is to build your confidence to give birth and parent instinctively by providing you with the knowledge and resources to make informed choices at every stage.

 

Our care provides a complete midwifery service for pregnancy, birth, recovery and baby care, centred on your individual needs. We specialise in home birth, water birth and vaginal birth following caesarean (VBAC), and offer support to those women wanting to give birth in hospital.

 

Melody is also a clinical hypnotherapist and offers all clients the opportunity to use hypnosis in preparation for labour and birth. We also offer all clients free birth pools, having seen the benefits of water in making labour easier. Both hypnosis and birth pools have been shown to shorten labour and to mitigate against the need for pain relief.

 

Our practice is based in the Lambeth area of Clapham, Stockwell, Battersea and Brixton although we will take on clients in a wider area of south London and, occasionally, the wider London area.
