Our mission statement and core values

At Moments Midwifery, we believe that birth is more than just a medical event—it’s a profound moment in a family’s journey, one that should be filled with confidence, trust, and empowerment. We are dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that honors every family's unique story. As a midwifery practice, our mission is not only to deliver safe and personalized care but to foster an environment where families feel supported in their choices and confident in their ability to make the best decisions for themselves and their newborns.

Our Mission Statement

At Moments Midwifery, we are dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that empowers families to make informed decisions about their birth experience. With a deep understanding of both the risks of resource-limited settings and the pressures of modern medical systems, our mission is to offer balanced, holistic care that integrates the best of both worlds. We believe in supporting families' autonomy and decision-making, fostering lifelong confidence in their ability to advocate for the well-being of their family. Through education, advocacy, and personalized care, we strive to create safe, empowering birth experiences that honor the unique journey of every family.

This mission was born from my experiences as a midwife overseas, working in areas where birth often carried high risks due to a lack of resources. It was also shaped by my time as a doula in hospitals, where I witnessed firsthand how medical interventions, when pushed unnecessarily, could lead to trauma and complications for families.

Moments Midwifery was created to offer a balanced approach: one that recognizes the value of modern medicine but also respects the natural birth process and the power of informed decision-making.

Our Core Values

Our mission is reflected in the core values we live by at Moments Midwifery. These values guide everything we do, ensuring that each family receives the personalized care and respect they deserve.

1. Informed Decision-Making
   We believe in empowering families with the knowledge they need to make informed choices about their care. When families are fully informed, they can make decisions that reflect their values and priorities—leading to greater confidence not only during birth but throughout life.

2. Holistic Balance
   We offer a balanced approach to birth, integrating modern medical knowledge with the beauty and strength of the natural birth process. We respect each family’s birth plan, whether that’s a home birth or the inclusion of medical interventions when necessary.

3. Compassionate Care
   At the heart of our practice is compassion. Every family is unique, and we take the time to understand your individual needs, preferences, and concerns. Our care is personalized, respectful, and always focused on you and your baby.

4. Advocacy and Support
   We stand alongside families to advocate for their birth preferences, helping them navigate the healthcare system and assert their rights. Your voice matters, and we are here to ensure it’s heard.

5. Safety and Respect
   Safety is always our top priority. We follow evidence-based practices to ensure the well-being of both mother and baby. We respect each family’s autonomy and support their decisions without judgment.

6. Cultural Sensitivity
   We honor the diverse backgrounds and beliefs of the families we serve. We are committed to providing care that is inclusive and respectful, ensuring that every family feels comfortable and supported throughout their journey.

7. Empowerment for Life
   We believe that the confidence families gain during the birth process has a lasting impact. By supporting and empowering families during this critical time, we help lay the foundation for a lifetime of thoughtful decision-making and self-advocacy.

At Moments Midwifery, our mission and core values are more than just words—they are the principles that guide how we care for each family. We are honored to be part of your birth journey, and we are committed to providing the care, support, and education you need to feel confident in every decision you make.
